Ever wonder what’s actually inside a Nintendo Switch game cartridge? If so, wonder no more, as ‘Tinker Man Mick’ opened up Let’s Sing 2021 and Super Mario Odyssey so you won’t have to.
The Let’s Sing 2021 cartridge actually used up nearly all of the interior area, while Super Mario Odyssey left a lot of empty space. For those wondering why this is the case, Nintendo most likely had to keep the cartridge size consistent so publishers are able to design labels ahead of time.
- Limited-edition design featuring elements inspired by Mario. Available while supplies last!
- Local co-op*, local wireless*, and online multiplayer**
- Detachable Joy-Con controllers
Nintendo has been doing this since the NES there’s always been some extra room in cartridges so 1 it’s easier to handle, 2 it can extend the life of the console with cartridges getting more complex and 3 it allows them to push the capabilities of the console later on,” said one commenter.
