 I don't think the NX will have that much third party support anyway where it's such a concern. It'll be better support than the Wii U for sure unless they do something really stupid, but I think it'll mostly be Japanese devs (the ones that currently support the 3DS) supporting it and a few Western devs. 


Even if it does have poor 3rd party support, that doesn't mean that they'll intentionally make decisions to deliberately gimp further support, which is what going back to cartridges would do. They aren't making decisions by saying, "fuck it, we aren't getting support anyway."


Discs are going bye bye. I think you're just gonna kind of have to get used to that idea. 

I don't really give a crap about discs to be honest. I don't care what format the games come on, because once I put the game on, I spend literally 0 seconds thinking about the format it's on. Nothing screams "hey remember 1997!" more than a shiny phyiscal disc these days anyway, so it's not even like "optical discs are cool man" because they sure as hell are not anymore. 

It's not like the N64 days where the games were really storage starved, today you can get a massive amount of data onto a disc, a postage stamp sized card, a flash drive, whatever and for cheap.
