There's this marvellous invention called compression. Capcom used it to get RE2's FMVs onto a damn N64 cartridge.


It wasn't Capcom who did it, was someone else, the quality of them was awful on N64 and parts were cut out from them.  The main reason RE2 was squeezed on to a 64 cartridge was because the PS1 game had a lot of junk data on the disc, used for nothing and just left on it out of laziness, the second disc of the game was 90% repeat data of the first one.

PS2/Xbox discs were hardly filled to capacity either, which is why the Xbox 360 uses the same disc size while having far higher resolution texture, audio samples, etc.
