Cartridges are pretty sweet. And they're more kid friendly, which is very important for the industry. If we get to a point where it costs less than a dollar for 10 gigs of flash memory, the game companies can just raise the price of the game by a dollar. And let's not forget that cartridges don't require cases, I recall SNES games coming in cardboard boxes, so there's the environmental factor as well as a slight reduction in cost. I really miss being able to switch between games in a matter of seconds rather than minutes.
"Now, a fun game should always be easy to understand - you should be able to take one look at it and know what you have to do straight away. It should be so well constructed that you can tell at a glance what your goal is and, even if you don’t succeed, you’ll blame yourself rather than the game. Moreover, the people standing around watching the game have also got to be able to enjoy it." - Shiggy
