I mean, what realistically was their alternative? 

Using Blu rays was not an option, for obvious reasons.

Going digital only would have pissed people off even more, not to mention retailers.

Thats Nintendos job to figure out. They tried GKC. It failed. Now try something else.

Sometimes there just is no good option available. Game cards are expensive, and third parties don't want to pay for them.

I'm not a fan of Key Cards myself, I just buy games that use them digitally to cut out the middle man, but Nintendo can't just wave a magic wand and make a new cheap form of storage come into existence.

It's clear GKC are not popular, and Nintendo has released surveys asking for feedback on them, so hopefully something can be done in time, like smaller card sizes. I expect even then though, some publishers will opt out just to save cash.
