The Nintendo Switch 2 has had a good few weeks. Not only have we had some great game updates, but we’ve also had a slew of new game announcements thanks to the two Nintendo Directs we got. That makes it a great time to be a Nintendo fan, but it also means we’re all scrambling around trying to figure out how to get all of those games onto our devices. Sure, uninstalling is an option, but that’s a pain, and there are ways to avoid that anyway.
As you know, you need a special kind of SD card for the Switch 2, because it’s fancy like that. Well, the SanDisk 512 GB Micro SD Card is that kind of SD card, and while you’d normally be paying $200 for it, you can get it today with 20% off. That brings the price down to $160 instead, and while that’s still a fair bit of cash, getting so much more space into your Switch 2 is fantastic.
Install Everything
The Nintendo Switch 2 comes with 256 GB of storage, and that’s already a lot of space for a lot of people. That’s mostly because Switch games are magically smaller than other games on other consoles and platforms, so that smaller amount of space can go a far longer way. So, being able to add another 512 GB to your console means you’re not doubling your storage space, but tripling it. That’s an absolutely huge boost to your storage options, and can allow you to comfortably install an absurd number of games without any hassle at all.
While some storage expansions can lead to lower loading times, that’s not an issuer here. This SD card can reach speeds of up to 880 MB/s, which is going to make sure everything still feels incredible smooth when you’re actually playing your games. That’s good news for when you’re just putting the console to sleep too, as most of us don’t actually fully power down our Switch consoles, whether it’s the old one or the new one. On top of that, you can use the space for image capturing or getting your best clips saved too, so you’ve got all sorts of options.
This makes for an amazing present to any Nintendo Switch 2 owner, as we all need a bit more space. However, it’s also a lot more expensive than many other SD cards, so getting it while it’s on sale is nearly essential. Make sure you’re quick on this one if you do want the $160 price.
