Hi,

Does anybody know Why AT45DB161D (DataFlash IC) has so many NC pins?

So?
Its obvious that the product is some kind of pin to pin replacement for something or so it is pad compatible for a parallel IC.

Perhaps they heard that microsoft wanted to write code for it - lol

I have heard that MLF is the preferred footprint for this family, I wouldn't use the TSOP28 version unless you really need to.

Although SOIC8 version is sold a lot more.
(check the inventory - see whats got the highest numbers - design for that - it will be cheaper & around longer)
