PICTURES! I can prove it!
First Size comparison
Second size comparison
Not counted
In size comparisons 1 and 2, from largest to smallest: NES, SNES, N64, Virtual Boy, Gameboy, GBA, DS.
In not included: GC, oversized rumble GBC games.
Conclusion: They have honkin big carts! Too much space wasted!. I have opened every game except for DS, and found that almost 1/2 of the space was empty. Fight Nintendo's Space Wasting Cartridges!
Sorry for the crappy last two pics, my flash on my camera stopped working unexpectedly.

Maybe they should use those horribly ficticious disks you see on scifi shows, he ones that are like 3/4"-1" in diameter, and hole terabytes of data.

Maybe it was a ploy to stop shop lifting

Another day saved thanks to Nintendo.

It would be cool to see how many DS cartridges you could fit in a NES. Id say 70 or 80.

NES carts are big enough to make a good case for almost anything, like that guy who put a screen in it for his SNES portable.

I think it's a way for them to make it seem like you're getting more game for $50.soundwave wrote:Maybe its a ploy to stop shoplifting
NES carts- To make it seem less like a video game and more like a toy
