Some folk like to have a physical cart, a box and a colour manual, which the Evercade games offer. Others may prefer to, where possible, pay for the games rather than just downloading a set of ROMs. It's just an option for people.

I recall watching a vid on YouTube that suggested that Evercade carts are actually just SD cards that Blaze have saved the games onto; rather than being a dedicated cart. I'm not sure if this was true,but, if so, I'm guessing that they're just gonna use larger capacity SD cards. I'm hoping it was "fake news" as SD cards do eventually stop working.
It is great to see that some 64-bit system games could be coming to Evercade!
