In general, you should probably spring for a larger size than you think you'll need, since the price difference between microSD cards is pretty negligible at larger sizes. If you're going to be doing a lot of gaming on the Switch, you should probably look for a microSD card with at least 128 GB of storage. Screenshots and videos will take space too.
The biggest Switch game right now is 'NBA 2K20,' coming in at about 33 GB - more than a new Switch can even hold.Īnd even if you prefer hard copies, remember that downloading bonus content and updates will require additional space on the Switch.
But that fills up fast - 'Breath of the Wild' is 14 GB, while 'Fortnite' and 'Pokémon Sword' are both about 12 GB.
The Switch comes with 32 GB of storage by default. You can buy your Switch games in two ways.
