Maybe I should've proven my point better by showing just how thick N64 cartridge is?

I do agree, it's hardly fair to show a console media with a portable media. My mistake

Yes, because that would be such a better example despite the fact that the NDS cartridge can hold 4 times as much as the N64 cartridge can. Oh, you didn't know that?

By the way, you dodged my point again. You're good at that aren't you?

Wow, really? that matters now? How many times can blu-Ray hold compare to a cartridge?

And on the road, what would you rather carry?

Oh and now you're changing the subject again kingofwale! You do love to do that don't you.

The problem with your arguments is that you're making the wrong comparisons. Funny how this works isn't it. If you take away the boxes for game protection, we can see those little itty bitty DS cartridges are vastly smaller than CDs and far less likely to get broken or otherwise mangled when not packaged. If we put the boxes back on, the NDS box is smaller than the other box in almost every situation.

Although, now you're talking about bluRay storage capacity which wasn't even what I asked you about in your original post nor the point of this entire conversation beginning with my question about size. Did you mistakenly think my pointing out the difference between an outdated cartridge and a new one and the relative size improvement as an entry to discuss storage space? I don't know and I don't really care.

You see kingofwale, I don't think you thought through your original comment. In fact, I think you expected to make a hit and run comment but got called on it. In each post above, you attempt to sidetrack the discussion and lead it away from your original post because your original comment (the highlighted one in case you can't find it) is very silly. And in your above post you're trying to switch the subject from media size to storage space.

Now shoo kingofwale, your posts are blocking my view of a perfectly good thread.

 What you do NOT get is that your "little itty bitty" DS cartridges holds "little itty bitty" data, Let's compare the most up-to-date media shall we?

DS cartridge: holds 258mb, smaller, bit thicker

Blu-Ray Disc: holds 50GB.  bigger, but thinner.

 

My original comments: the fact you can't store them like you can with CDs.

 And that's my point exactly, There's no way you can store them like CD with comparable storage capcity.

Funny how you just won't admit a defeat and let it go.
