The biggest problem of the Nintendo Switch 2 is already a storage space

In addition to the original Switch games and degrees, the precious memory increases. The Switch 2 also looks at GameCube title in the Retro library, which is available for the retro library Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack Subscribers. Like the classic games for previous consoles such as NES, SNES or Game Boy, they are all packed in a launcher, with each game installed in the respective collection at the same time.

This is okay for the SNES collection with around 80 titles, which are summarized into a barely notic 267-MM bundle. Who is interested in whether there is a bunch that you will never play? But currently with only four titles (currently availableF-Zero, the legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Soulcalibur IIAnd Super Mario strike end) NSO GameCube is already a 6 GB obligation. The original Gamecube discs could only hold just under 1.5 GB, so that the more and more space demands more and more space with every addition of these launchers, and every unwanted game can prevent them from installing something else that they want to play. However, this only affects NSO subscribers who use the GameCube library to choose the freedom which GameCube games are installed is of great help.

The problem with the solution

MicroSd Express (256 GB)

The good news is that Switch 2 users still enable the memory to expand the memory via microSD cards. Problem solved – just hit a massive capacity card, right? Not quite. Switch 2 only Support MicroSD Express Format cards. This gives a good reason for this – the new standard offers much faster data that can read and write speeds so that the games can be loaded faster – but the rule causes problems.

One is costs. MicroSD Express cards cost more per GB of memory than your predecessors. At the time of writing a Sanksisk 128 GB Card costs $ 17While his switch is 2-compatible microSD express format card $ 54 for the same memory amount– a 3x premium. Another are card capacities. There is a handful of 1-terrace microSD express cards on the market, but the supplies are disappearing and prices are astronomical. You can use several microSD cards with your console technically, Nintendo advises against itThe exchange of several smaller cards is not an option either.

The SD Express format only refers to speed and not to capacity that has its own standards. Most microSD cards that you probably buy, whether you are in Express or not, are standard tickets for the SD extension capacity or SDXC. Theoretically, these can contain a maximum of 2 TB data, although the largest legitimate card that you will probably find for sale is 1.5 TB.

2018 of the SD Association – The Industry Authority that sets standards for SD memory cards – – –introduced SD Ultra capacityor sduc. This supports the capacities up to an astonishing 128 TB, “regardless of the form factor, either micro or high size or interface type, including (…) SD Express.” There are no SDUC cards on the market yet, so we are a long, long way from beating an 8 TB card in your switch 2 “even” and installing everything you can dream of. In theory, however, this certainly means that one day you can do exactly that?
