this perplexed me as well. ive come to the conclusion that most games carry the save on the cartridge and the others use the memory pack
It was in the game and in the memory cards you could put in the controller.
As far as im aware the Nintendo 64 did, they went in the controller.
Neither. The memory cardf is placed in the controller and saves data in the memory card on the controller. Same with the Sega Draemcast
Not quite. A game pack could refer to either the Cartridge placed into the Nintendo 64 directly and is used to store the game's data, or the attachment that is placed on the back of the N64 controller. A memory card is the unit that saves the altered data for the game. There are two types of memory cards for the Nintendo 64 games, the built-in memory storage that is included in many of the N64 game Cartridges, and the memory pack, this is an attachment for the controller itself, and is used for any games that require a save feature for your profile, but do not have one installed in the Cartridge (an example game would be Gex 64, it requires that you save, but cannot save the game in the cartridge).
The 64 was the graphics of the game console. In other words, the Nintendo 64 had 64 bits.
It can damage the games.
No.
Yes it was in the controller.
You would not be able to test a Nintendo 64 unless you had a working game.
no you will need a converter

The Performance Memory Card for the Nintendo 64 is an accessory that provides additional memory for saving game data. It allows players to store more game saves than the built-in memory of the console itself, enhancing the gaming experience by facilitating progress in multiple games. This card is especially useful for games that require extensive save data or for players who want to manage their saves more effectively.
