They moved to discs because they were shooting for things like animated cutscenes and CD soundtracks, and the N64 just could not support that nearly as well. Its why almost every N64 version of a multi-plat was gimped for content.

It was to the point that fitting a game like Resident Evil on the system was considered a noteworthy achievement of compression.

the typical ps1 game was a game that looked worse than a n64 game, nothing impressive at all, but with a shitload of FMV cutscenes and stuff like pre-rendered graphics to wow gamers.

turns out we dont really use pre rendered graphics or over-rely on FMV cutscenes anymore, so Nintendo was up to something
