Wii U came with the ability to use external drives something PS4 and X1 didn't have at launch as Wii U didn't require mandatory installs, going by patents and Nintendo's current direction it's likely the console variant will have comparable internal storage as it indicates a platform with mandatory installs. Either way 32GB is more space by default, on PC I have a number of multiplatform games on Steam and I can't think of many that hit 30GB.

Not everything that is patented gets used. Just because Nintendo patented something, it doesn't mean that it will be used in NX.

As Wii U proved, 32GB is not enough by any means. And if you can't think of many Steam games that hit 30GB... take a look at this article from one year ago

Digital distribution has been good for PC gaming. The convenience, sales, and increased exposure for small developers have made our hobby significantly more accessible. The increase in download sizes over the last few years, however, is starting to make some games a little less accessible.

That chart proves my point as only 5 games are above 30GB, I also don't get the rest of your argument here are you now comparing WiiU internal storage and the space on the carts? That's a pretty irrelevant argument.
