“Did you get all that?”

[Yes.]

I still think Kart 64 is one of the best of the series, but I don’t get the prejudice against ghosts. :)

This is worse than the iOS 7 betas.

Front one has an Agent Kallus vibe to him.

Nintendo: “Well, it’s obviously not our rushed production schedule or choosing to use cheaper parts… I wonder what it could be.”

All the crabs on Earth: “Wait, we’re here!”

“This story was invented by a lesser bird.”

If it’s stupid and it works, it’s still stupid but at least it worked.

I love that guy.

Mr. Walks Upright

This man frightens me.

Found the computer-science major.

I’m a father living in Japan, so any competent display of childcare is still met with shock and confusion.

“Walkies… or else!”

It absolutely does not make the cart cheaper. Same amount of plastic and silicon. The only exception would be the special carts that have to include more memory chips for unusually large games.

Strangely, there’s a minimum amount of memory each key cart will have, regardless of how little of it is used. At a certain point it becomes more expensive to make special chips with less memory on them. Nintendo and 3rd parties will buy the cheapest chips, which will more likely than not have enough space for the whole game regardless of whether or not the whole game gets loaded on it.

What it does do is make the cart less valuable and pretty much worthless to resellers. Destroying the aftermarket is one of Nintendo’s goals.

“What have I done?!”

“Aww! We missed some?”
