Ok guys, I read some from people talking about how much the carts cost. I gathered from what 'industry insiders' have said on resetera about the price for devs to buy these carts from Nintendo

according one source 8GB cards are $8, and 32GB carts are about $16.

According to ZhugeEX 8GB cards are around $10, about the same price as PS4/XB1 discs. A 32GB cart is around $20.

To use a 16GB cart, sounds like your looking at like $2 or $3 more than a 8GB cart

So I can understand why there not using the 32 GB based on this, at the same time, there making more profit off the switch version :/

I think it's very hard to believe PS4/X1 discs cost 10 USD, here are BD movies that cost like that.

Because the media itself cost less than 50 cents a piece.
