That should be more than enough space to redownload all of the games you’ve downloaded from the Nintendo eShop over the years, so you don’t have to pick and choose before you go on a long flight, for instance.
Read and write speeds are also important to consider when you’re buying a microSD card and this SDXC version offers 130MB/s. It’s plug and play too, so it’s fully compatible with the Nintendo Switch. Of course, it’s not only compatible with the Nintendo Switch, but a versatile piece of kit for all devices with a microSD slot.
Amazon reviewers are certainly happy with this product with a 4.7-star out of 5 rating from more than 52,000 sales. Given Nintendo has just released The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, this is the perfect time to give yourself a little more storage flexibility moving forward.
Considering the game itself is 16GB in size, that’ll take up more than half the available storage on a standard Nintendo Switch console, you may wish to give yourself a little leeway on the cheap with this awesome microSD deal.
