Forums - Nintendo - Would Nintendo offering to pay the difference in cost for 32 GB cards for third party releases a plausible solution

I agree. Times change and whether it's good or bad, this era has brought with it HUGE downloads and file sizes. Nintendo needed to provide 500GB minimum imo. 

And where do you want to put this inside the Switch? M.2 and U.2 Formats might fit, but still would need some serious internal redesign for this. Besides, even the cheapest SSDs of that size cost about half as much as an entire Switch console, so this would push the price even above the PS4 Pro.

You eat the cost, offset with software.

Not a solution.

But a few years from now I am sure Nintendo will have negotiated some considerably more attractive manufacturing prices on cartridges.
