About this deal

comments on a micro sd card article !!!, I thought it was a Pokemon sword and shield story for a second there. Plus, on the 500gb system you can only load 8 games. I know that is still quite a lot, but I like the idea of just popping the game card in. You can usually get a "read speed" rating on the SD Card you're looking at buying. You should also know that micro SDXC is the newer, faster type versus the older micro SDHC. Jaded_Drybones No worries, I can definitely understand how text from another anonymous, online person can be interpreted in many ways. I've sure had my own fair share of experiences and mishaps like that...

If you're ever thinking about being completely, utterly, and totally future-proofed in terms of your Switch's capacity then the Silicon Power 1TB Superior SD card is for you. Yes, the 1TB capacity will mean it is a larger investment by default to begin with but the sheer value here is ridiculous, and you'll literally never have to worry about storage space again. Pop this in and even the most storage conscious of future-proof worried among us will have their minds eased. EDIT: After all, Nintendo doesn't sell at a loss unless they have absolutely no choice (ie moving shipments faster). The rest of my thoughts on this are in comment #162, if you're interested. It will safe me from having to type it twice...

It's kind of a given, though, seeing as most HDD's only go up to 1 or 2 MB/s random access read speed, which is important for loading open world games... Just absolutely outdated and abysmal performance for any modern gaming machine. The NS should load smooth as butter by comparison, due to being built to fully utilize flash and solid state memory, normalizing random access read speeds that are 10's of times faster than HDD's. BotW and Skyrim for NS will really show this off.

Up to 100MB/s read speed; up to 90MB/s write speed. 64GB: Up to 100MB/s read speed; up to 60MB/s write speed. Based on internal testing; performance may be lower depending upon host device interface, usage conditions, and other factors. 1MB = 1,000,000 bytes. I won't come anywhere close to filling 32gb since I buy physical for all retail games. I find it odd how widely expanding the memory is viewed as a necessity I didn't even know what the whole thing was about anymore, so I unfortunately had to re-browse through my old comments, having to relive the old useless discussion because I wanted to know what the hell you were responding to. 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. Jaded_Drybones Not "put their foot down" in a harsh and thoughtless manner, but to an extent, and if we have to believe EA and Ubisoft, then they have been in talks for quite a while already, so potential problems like these will more than likely already have been discussed or even ironed out.I don't think I'll need more than 128GB as I'll be aiming for physical media mainly. Those cards are tiny and take up no space at all. The people who'll need the most storage are the digital only crowd, although saying that Nintendo seem to be experts in keeping file sizes sensible. It's the third parties I see being the biggest space hogs. So, in the end, it seems to me that this would be good for all parties. And after all: the customer is king, so more should be done to keep them satisfied (and keep them buying your products). A happy customer will tell 3 to 5 others, but an unhappy customer will tell at least 10 people, and nowadays even the world, especially with social media and so on. ThanosReXXX Maybe I didn't fully understand you, but I doubt 3rd parties will bend to Nintendo's will. And we'd be getting mass effect if those talks were as successful as we hoped.
