    As someone old enough to have chosen between save files to delete for space, I don’t really understand why people get so hung up on which games are currently installed.

      I remember how amazing it was to upgrade the memory cards in the PS2 to those third party ones.

      Whereas the paltry 128kB memory cards in the PS1 were painful to deal with, especially with those games that demanded multiple save slots.

      Cartridge based games varied so much with save slots. Some games I recall playing from the SNES era only had 3 slots I think. I remember Mega Man X used a clever passcode feature to let you ‘save’.

      I old enough that, as a kid, every time I wanted to play a game I had had to wait for it to install from cassette.

      Besides, download speeds now are amazing.
