Good find, I didn't notice that width thing until I got the Japanese version of Transport Tycoon. Only other cases I've got that are non-standard are Sim City 2000 (double CD case, similar to PAL Mega CD) and Overdrivin' GT-R Premium Pack (wide case bit like older Japanese PS1 titles).
That's a great list. As you can see, these thicker cases were quite common so it seems so strange that finding replacements has been impossible for years. So glad I stumbled upon these.
Only game I ever had which came in one of these was the Japanese version of JSR. I remember importing it literally days after U.K. mags were only just previewing it with a couple of screen shots. Was amazing how much earlier some games would be released in Japan back then… was an importers’ dream getting a good six months of early game in exchange for 60 or 70 notes.
