What's the width of a GG Cart? I have case on hand that is sub-par. I can take some quick measurements.

There is part of the problem. I haven't owned a ruler since High School art class. I know GG carts are exactly as tall as a Genesis cart. So, if, you have a Genesis cart, that could be a good indicator. Sega kept all of their carts sharing similar dimensions. Not sure if this helped production costs of the PCB boards or not.
scott:
If you go off of height, the cart won't fit in the tape case. A Genesis is roughly 3/16s of an inch taller than the case. If the carts are narrower than that are tall, then you might be in business.

That's what I needed. It won't work. GG carts are almost square. I would definitely say less than an 1/8th of an inch. Sad times...

On to plan B, modifying a Halo ODST collectors edition chest to hold one game gear game a piece. Shelf porn to the max!

But seriously, I am envious of the cassette boxes for Game Boy games. Those are seriously sweet.
scott:
Why do that, when you can get Borderlands chests and Steel Battalion boxes too!

But, ya they are. I'm looking forward to getting all my games in them. Right now I barely touch my Game Boy because it's too much of a hassle shuffling through them all.
