Link to the Past was on a cartridge which was more expensive to manufacture. Look at PS1 and other games that came on CD. Now they don't even have to pay to manufacture discs and keep them stocks in physical stores. Also compare how small the market was compared to now. Compare how the entire game was on the disc instead of being sold in pieces.
