There is a good chance your Nintendo cartridge has some empty space inside it. I heard this is usually to allow for standard sizing when the internal parts may differ in size, but I don't know if this is true or not. Does anyone know?

It's easier to manage a cartridge than a microscopic chip

1. They're easier to handle
2. There'd be more space for labeling
3. They'd be harder to lose
4. They're sometimes necessary like the full sized PCB you showed, so best to keep the size uniform
5. (and this is the point I think people tend to forget) Making it smaller would make it even more of a choking hazard than it already is.

At this point they’re just adding extra size to it to make it easier to handle. Too tiny and they can get lost and be difficult to get into a console

"why does Nintendo do this?"

Gonna be really shocked when he opens an original Nintendo cartridge.

Same reason the packaging on the shelf isn't just the size of the cartridge - you need to be able to find it.

As many have said, trying to make them smaller is only counterproductive. As long as the size of the cartridge doesn't require sacrifices in the hardware of the console, I think going back to GBA game size would be awesome. Turning the cartridge itself into a work of art like that has been lost to time but I'd love to see it return.

It’s crazy how small these chips are now, but worth pointing out that even some original Game Boy games didn’t use all its space either.

Its wild to me the size of a switch cart still blows people away like we've had 128gb micro sd cards literally 1/4th the size of a switch cart for like a decade UPDATE as of last yesr 2tb micro SD cards are available to consumers 2 terabytes and 1/4th the size of a switch cart

-Easier to handle
-Makes it look the same as the ones that need the bigger chip
-Will actually fit into the switch's game slot

The extra size is, as you demonstrated, sometimes necessary. It's good to have some room to build out when needed.

Bro we have 1TB Micro SD cards and this guy is surprised about “this tiny little thing”

3 reasons

1.) If it get's any smaller it'll be impossible to keep track of

2.) Uniformity so that the cartridges have their same look and size to know they are for nintendo switch.

3.) Future expansion, similar to the other cartridge based consoles nintendo has made the extra space was for adding new hardware later on down the line for "future proofing"

Imagine they didn't do this. You stay up till the midnight release of the new game. You get home and open the case. Inside is a Itty bitty micro SD card. You drop it and now it's lost in the shag carpet. The clock hits 2am. You're still picking through the shag. 😂

Every cartridge needs to be the same size because of the port design specifications but the internals are as small as they can be because bigger pcb and more silicon = more money. This has always been how cartridges have worked going back to the 2600 and NES, all cartridges are a uniform size and the internal electronics are only as big as they need to be.

things can always be smaller. but designers figured out that, ergonomically, things get harder to use the smaller they are. just think of those tiny keyboards on your phone screen. we could make them smaller and use up less screen space, but then it will be harder to type the correct letters.
