Hm. I got something like 109 and 17 mm using a calliper, so yours should fit completely inside that. But how about the corners – could it be that the Japanese carts simply don’t have these two extra grooves? This should be easy to account for.

Interesting. I did not know that, after all there are lots of “standard shaped” games with US-EU-JP labels around. Can you give me details on the cart dimensions (in mm, if possible)?

Talking about Megadrive, Sunsoft published in Japan cartridges without rounded borders, not as usual japanese ones. AFAIK Tel-tel mahjong, Tel-tel stadium, Batman, Lemings and Fantasy zone.

Hey this is looking great but I think I have a bit of bad news (hopefully not) but I see you have the spacing for the mega drive to fit PAL games, this of course will allow you to place US games in as well but I think you’re forgetting the Japanese games which are wider still, I have a PAL system and they are too wide to fit in, so they might be too wide to fit in yours.
