sd card contact wear is pretty radical on constant insert/removal.

second: one of the things that made cartridges great was that they were human-sized. as were CDs. An sd card inserted into a more handle-able/human 'cartridge' would be cool, maybe gameboy sized was about perfect imo.

fiddling with sd cards and slots isn't great.

an snes/genesis cartridge falls into the thing, you can't miss or do it backwards without reeally trying to. They give an affirmative 'clunk' when fully engaged.

(also the contact wear on those was horrendous too.. maybe the SD card IS authentic..)
