After starting my Nintendo collection, I decided I wanted a way to store all of my games on my DVD shelf, while keeping them nicely on display. With a bit of measuring and searching for inspiration on Thingiverse, I came up with a solution.
Each large cartridge rack (NES, SNES, Genesis, N64) holds six game cartridges. Each small cartridge rack (GB/GBA, DS/3DS) holds twelve game cartridges. Racks are the same depth as a standard DVD case, so they work well on DVD shelves or as bookends.
A small note on Genesis cartridges--I have 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 a little on the snug side, while the thinner carts are a little bit loose.
Updates: 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. Added another GB model that has a raised rear slot so that rumble games like Pokemon Pinball can be placed there with the labels facing forwards. Virtual Boy added.
