When I was younger I got a N64 at launch and boy was I excited to play some great RPG's on the N64. I was expecting a new Earthbound and Final Fantasy game. Maybe a new Breath of Fire game. Looking back I should have known. The N64 had very little RPG's. Quest 64 was a bad game. Paper Mario was a great game though. I understand that the main reason that N64 did not have RPG's is because it used cartridges. I also noticed that companies like Capcom, Square, Enix, and Konami mainly developed games for Playstation at the time and many of the RPG'S would be released on Playstation. Even the Saturn had a better RPG library than the N64 with games like Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shining the Holy Arc, and Dragon Force.
Even with the limitations of the N64 using cartridges I think that Nintendo should have developed more RPG's internally. Was there anyway that the N64 could have had more RPG's even though it used cartridges?
