About this deal

GamerXiphos how do you know if it supports UBS-2 cards??? That's the one I'm gonna buy but I can't find any info that it's supported Why the hate on NL about posting paid links? They have lives and bills to pay too! And these are informative and apropos. My micro sd card is a Samsung one. I think I have a couple of "regular" Sandisk sd cards though, no problems so far (thank goodness). BTW, I've been reading your posts waaaaaay too long as a lurker here. Twice today I actually typed "Nitneod"" In System Settings, choose ' Data Management', and then ' Move Data Between System / microSD Card'.

Nintendo Switch SD cards in 2023 | GamesRadar+ The best Nintendo Switch SD cards in 2023 | GamesRadar+

I was here when it flooded. 2011 if I recall correctly. My soi was really bad, my bike was completely submerged. Funny story, I was down in the reception of my apartment and a huge goldfish swam in from the road outside. Spoony_Tech Right now, 128GB is as far as you can go with prices scaling linearly. 200GB is a higher cost-per-gig, but is still reasonable, and by 256GB (the largest microSD currently available) the cost per gig has just gone out the window. My advice? Don't buy any storage for your Switch unless you actually need it, wait until you fill the onboard. I do know that I use 512gb SD on Wii U for GC/Wii games and 200gb on 3DS and have never noticed any issues in games (or otherwise, despite potential scenarios others warned against). The only thing I've ever noticed is on the 3DS, now that I have like 180gb used of the 235gb available after formatting, sometimes it takes an extra second for all the menu icons to load. As for Wii U games, what games? How many big AAA 3rd party games did it get? How big of a patch was Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash going to need, it's a tennis game w/ only 1 arena. Or Animal Crossing amiibo Festival, it's a board game. We're rounding up all the best Nintendo Switch SD cards to keep your console storage topped up without breaking the bankI usually just archive the games I beat, but my SD card and hard drive are near maximum, and as this has happened, a couple of the games I haven't played in a while display a little cloud icon when I hover over them ... is the Switch auto-storing these games in the cloud? Nintendo is very very clever. Just give the buyers only 32gb memory so we don't have to pay more for extra space.. but we still can charge people as a complete console with some memory and people won't complain and still will pay around € 350. Now we gamers are forced to pay extra amount like above €100. Sorry Switch but up till now i'm not moved by your actions. If Sony and MS can give buyers at least 500gb you should be able to do that as well. Your system isn't much stronger than xbox one. Bad bad bad Nintendo! One console has well over 65 million systems sold, and the other only a little more than 7 million, so even if the Switch sold the same game as the PS4 on a "1 game per console" ratio, then the profit would still always be much smaller than on the PS4, so that's an unfair and unrealistic comparison. Memory cards, no matter how good a deal in six months you will have paid too much. 128gb and some speedy internet is more than enough.

Nintendo Switch Gaming Console Memory Cards Nintendo Switch Gaming Console Memory Cards

Games like Fifa, NBA, WWE and whatever other sports games will come to the Switch (I suspect an American Football game to be in the works also) are highly popular, and once again: are only playable in portable mode on a Switch, so that is something not to be so easily dismissed, regardless of whether or not you can play a prettier looking version on the Xbox or Playstation (or PC). Poor advice. Digital Foundry found that using these 'premium' cards with the Switch offers no performance benefit, so people would be better off buying a larger capacity card than a 'faster' one.

Important:

Mine will be Sandisk 128 / 200 GB. I don't need too large capacity since I will go physical 99%, the rest is for exclusive eshop games and or VC. That's not unfair to point out at all, that's how these tech companies operate. Higher memory devices are usually the most cost efficient from manufacture to sale, from a manufacturer's perspective, compared to lower memory devices. It translates into bigger ripoffs from the customer's perspective, so the company has to figure out ways to get customers to accept and buy into it. Thus, it's a good thing Nintendo kept the flash chip costs and size low, to allow customers to bring onboard as much value effectiveness as they want from microSD cards. thanks Nintendo Life for this guide for Micro SD card, my maternal aunts is going to give me a 128 GB Micro SD as a present for chirtsmas.

SanDisk microSDXC Card for Nintendo Switch - 256GB

Memory might be one of those items that'll fall either in the middle or closer to that 50%. When millions of pieces are bought, the profit for the manufacturer will still be there regardless. I bought the 128 SanDisk SDXC card, since I had a €50 giftcard for a particular store and I didn't know what else to get from there. So it costed me €5 That fact is not in any way diminished or disturbed by current game sizes or zero-day patches/updates that developers are all too willing to ram down our throats nowadays.

Dakt @JaxonH That's a specs point I've been trying to find for a while now. The UHS-II cards are way, way faster, but they use an extra row of pins to utilize the extra speed. Otherwise, they only use one row, which maxes out at around 95 MB/s read speed. I haven't been able to find anyone who can confirm whether the microSD slot uses one or two rows of pins. Ralizah I know, but Nintendo is not Microsoft or Sony, and even though they did have some patches on the 3DS and Wii U, most of the time they don't, and definitely not HUGE files. So ya, I guess add it to a long list of convenience features that would be nice to see across the board, but given how incredibly simple it is to work around this, I'd say maybe there are bigger fish to worry about frying Was a bit too fast with answering that one, since I see now that you said the price would be 30% of the retail, but it's like I said above, so it'll be a big discount anywhere in the 30 - 50% area, depending on item and volume of said item. Going to use console memory just for digital only games, so for a long time the base 32gb will be more than enough. Eventually (if i really need it) i'll get just a 64gb, but i don't think i'll ever need it
