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.

They require cases when they are the size of SD cards or smaller. Don't expect them to be the sizes of prior console carts. Those days are well over. I can't image how many games would be lost if we didn't have a standard way to store them. They would _still_ probably come in DVD sized cases.
