Maybe I just have a bad experience with disk consoles:

1. PS2 and GameCube are the only disk consoles I own, and they take a while to load each level, whereas cartridges access the memory almost instantly without the whirley disk noise,
2. Fair point, but disks still scratch and break far more easilly than cartridges,
3. But they are harder... Most ISO's are torrents which you have to burn to a disk with the right speed and it takes ages, and you have to mod your console, (except for GameCube where you can use a SD card, they had pirates in mind when they designed the GameCube ) but with memory cards it takes seconds to download and copy. And $100 is nothing compared to the $40 each modern games like COD.

Face the facts, disks suck. Cartridges rule!

you can't have rumble AND memory paks.

Games that uses rumble and memory pack ask you to remove the rumble and insert the memory pack when you want to save then you can remove it and insert once again the rumble.
It's hot-swapable.

Woo, I finally lucked out and scored a copy of Super Mario 64 for fairly cheap off eBay.

This is a game I HAD to buy.

N64 saves on the cartridge.

That doesn't make sense, there wouldn't be Memory Paks if you didn't need them at all.

Honestly though, not alot of games that I used had them. The main one I remember was Quest 64/Holy Magic Century. Ghost records may have been saved on some games like Mario Kart, but I certainly don't remember getting too much use out of mine. Generally if anything needed to be saved to it there was very little space left over
