Video Game Cartridge Stands for DVD Shelves

thingiverse

After starting my Nintendo collection, I decided to create a way to store all of my games on my DVD shelf while keeping them nicely on display. With some measuring and searching for inspiration on Thingiverse, I came up with a solution. Each large cartridge rack, designed for NES, SNES, Genesis, and N64, holds six game cartridges. Each small cartridge rack, made for GB/GBA and DS/3DS, holds twelve game cartridges. The racks are the same depth as a standard DVD case, making them perfect for DVD shelves or bookends. There's a small note on Genesis cartridges - I've noticed that for the handful of games I own, there's a noticeable discrepancy in exact cartridge measurements. I've sized the Genesis rack to hold my fattest game just snug enough, while the thinner carts fit a little loose. Updates: I added Game Gear and edited the N64 holder to be a better fit. Unfortunately, Game Gear games are much thicker than even GBA games, which means there can't be a full dozen in the holder like the other handhelds and still fit on DVD shelves. I've started remaking these in Onshape and will post links to models that I have completed on there. I added another GB model with a raised rear slot so that rumble games like Pokemon Pinball can be placed there with the labels facing forwards. Virtual Boy was also included.
