The bigger the cartridge storage the more it cost: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_64_Game_Pak

Vs a cd which cost around $3 or so and you had 650mb of storage vs 64.
I remember being a bit shocked seeing No Mercy was $10 more......... (off topic but also) was disappointed not realizing I could send my cart back to fix that glitch it had in it.
