So? If Sony or MSoft can't convince third parties to compress their games, do you really think Nintendo could do it? And why should they? Because otherwise they couldn't sell their games on NX? They aren't selling them on Wii U/3DS and are doing quite well without them.

But of course, if Nintendo makes a machine designed to sell their own games and not focused on third parties (something that isn't as bad as it could seem, if done right), then ROMs should be fine if they are willing to take the extra costs.

As someone has mentioned when used with a HDD it's not much of an issue, fact is the standard size for a disc is 25GB which most developers use and can request for a bigger size if need be or compress data, third party perfomance on Nintendo platforms is irrelevant to this point as by default 32GB is more than what standard discs now are offering, if you're going to say layers then we need to add the bigger size carts.
