If you know about Square's FF6 tech demo on the N64 and their subsequent departure from Nintendo, then the answers are all there. Cartridges were expensive, and lacked the necessary capacity for what Square wanted to make. If Nintendo went with CDs instead, I'm certain Square would have released FF7 on the N64 as planned.This applies to all the remaining RPG developers, it simply made far more fiscal sense to develop for a disc based system; I don't have the stats handy but it was astronomically cheaper for devs to produce discs rather than cartridges, making it a way safer investment. FMVs were also mindblowing back then, every RPG worth it's salt would pack in plenty of either CG or anime cutscenes... I think the only N64 game to feature an FMV was that one Resident Evil game, and it was only through some programming miracle.

Is the blonde girl supposed to be Tina or Celes?

Would FF on 64 would have been the best game of all?
