Alright, let’s dive into this madness. So, Nintendo’s kinda pushing the boundaries here, right? Now they’re letting us pre-order Switch 2 games. Yeah, games, before the console’s even out. Makes sense… or not? I dunno. Had this habit—can’t even tell you why—of obsessively checking those game file sizes. Like, I’d scroll down each page just to see the numbers. Why did I care? No idea. But oh man, some of these sizes? They’re rivaling those big, clunky PC games. Not what the old Switch was doing, that’s for sure.
But here’s the kicker—Switch 2 is beefed up. Like, this bad boy’s pumping out 1080p, maybe more if it’s feeling fancy, and doing it at breakneck speeds. Yet—and here’s where it gets laughable—you’ve got a measly 256 GB to play with for storage. Just imagine all those gigabytes getting munched up by, what, three or four games, tops? Let’s look at the numbers, yeah? Over 300 GB, poof, just like that. MicroSD Express card? Definitely your new best friend.
I know, kinda sounds bonkers to buy storage for a gadget you’ve not even got your hands on. I mean, I got excited just thinking about it, but then again, I’m… easily excited. Big microSD cards—Express ones to truly sound fancy—are the way to go. They’ll cost ya, oh yeah, more than the usual suspects you’d toss in a Switch or Steam Deck. Oh, another thing. Your trusty old microSD cards? Ha! Useless here, except maybe for watching those shaky cam game clips from way back when.
Anyway, back to the point—wait, what was the point again? Ah, never mind. Just pile those storage cards up while you can, if you’ve got the cash. Switch 2 is coming, whether or not we’re ready.
