What do the colored lines on AES cases mean?

Some games like Neo Turf Masters have green lines

Some games like Metal Slug have blue lines

And most of them have red lines?

What do they mean? Are they some kind of categorization of the genre? Help me out guys, this has been running through my mind for a while and I can't find an answer

Different colors are supposed to be for different genres, but SNK often put the wrong color on a game.

It'd be awesome if someone corrected the colors.

that would certainly help my brain out. the only ones that seemed to definitely belong were the green ones being sports

Or here's an idea: Ignore colored lines on your games and just play them.

They are for guidance when trimming the tops of inserts. You need to trim yours off now otherwise you will look like a tool.

Colored lines? What? There are not supposed to be any colored lines. I suspect you all have a bunch of boots. My condolences.

I'm gonna guess you have JPN AES, no? If you look at the photos, you'll see they're ENGLISH! Do you speak it? Say what one more time.

Have you used the "search" option on here for your original question?
