I created this post 9 years ago on the other site for a project that never came to fruition.

Over the years I've gotten comments and messages that it was a helpful resource, so I'm reposting here so I doesn't get lost of I decide to delete my account.

I'll also have to fix the formatting once I'm on a desktop.

Enjoy!

Why would Genesis and Genesis (Tall Cart) have different widths? Is there a mistake there?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I no longer have an EA cartridge to remeasure but after looking it up, consolemods.org has a list. While my measurements are different than what I have, there is still a significant difference between the normal cartridge and EA's version.

If I get my hands on one, I'll definitely take another look because there's still a 9mm discrepancy between our two widths and that's more than just a rounding error.

Thanks for the post!

I'm not sure I'll ever need them, but this is a super cool list!
