The Classics can only play certain games (namely, the ones that come with the box), right? So why not just have all the games saved onto the system itself? No point in having to put in cartridges

No they're saved on the system, no carts. You can even hack them to add more roms

This. Imagine assuming they come with tiny mini cartridges for no reason at all. Jesus Christ.

You don't need to use quotes around roms. They are literally just roms. Some are downloaded straight from a popular rom site even.

It reminds me of some clickbait articles that I see on /r/SavedYouAClick, (subreddit where they sum up the articles so you can get the information without giving them a hit, if you didn't know)

Yep. I don't have the source handy but someone looked at the Super Mario Bros (I think) file on the NES Classic and found that it was identical to a rom from a popular site. Identical down to the header confirming that it was the same rom dump.

Nintendo actually paid for a iNES source code license, allegedly.

No clue. Maybe they lost the original and that was the easiest way, or maybe the person that was in supposed to find the specific archive was lazy and just downloaded it. I mean think about that second idea for a second, they probably had interns or new guys find the archives for the NES Classic games and there is no chance in hell that not a single person that works at Nintendo doesn't use emulators or roms (Did I word that right? You know what I'm trying to say right?)
