Alright! Thanks. I guess I was confused about the size of a megabit. It all makes sense now!

I just noticed that rather than simply being a Mega Cartridge, Shinobi on SMS is a Two-Mega Cartridge and its "Mega Type" is listed as Two-Mega. Since it is but a single cartridge with a single game upon it, I'm not sure what the two-mega is referring to. My guess is it's a measurement of the size of the game, but what is a "mega"? Definitely not a megabyte or megabit because those would be far too large. But, enough guessing, does anyone know what this is referring to?

No, I don't want to produce one. I want to know how much it cost to produce one! How much did Nintendo spend on each individual cartridge?

Hey, I'm working on a project on unlicensed NES games. Color Dreams (a company that produced plenty of poor quality unlicensed carts) claims that Nintendo made licensed developers pay up to three times more to manufacture cartridges than it would cost for Color Dreams to produce them for themselves without stating actual figures. I've scoured the internet for more information on the price of manufacturing a single cartridge, but have yet to find anything! Anyone know the numbers or perhaps some resources or information I may not have stumbled upon yet?
