It's not remotely cheap enough to make a third party company say "we'll spend like $10+ on a cart for the NX version of a game that costed $0.10 for a CD on the PS4/XBO." The average next gen game is like 45GB. Those are the sizes you're looking at for something like this. There is no way Nintendo is convincing 3rd parties to pay that kind of money per game just to port their 8th gen games to the NX.

It sounds like it's just describing the standard functions of a memory card. You know, downloading something from the SD card to the system itself. If it was meant to read game data like a cartridge, the patent would have been far more explicite than that.

Plenty of third parties seemed willing to spend money on DS, 3DS and Vita carts...
