An average PS game (Excluding the FMV) uses up more space than an average N64 
game, but The n64 uses Cart Compression (like the old Genesis/Snes carts that 
could store almost a 100 megabit in a 32 megabit cart)..
Compare Turok on PC & N64, Virtually identical games but the N64 version only 
takes up 64 megabit (8 Megabyte) of space..
With todays compression techniques you could theoretically fit 150 Megabyte 
on a cart (256 megabit cart)
