I could just be dumb, but I hope that it’ll still use the switch cartridge. Like how they did it with the DS line up until the 3DS when they changed it. I could see them potentially doing that too. If it does I’ll finally jailbreak my OG switch with the tegra exploit. Just been too much of a scaredy cat to do it.

I was thinking this earlier today. If they do make the switch 2 compatible with current switch games, physical and digital, it’ll be a damn near instant day 1 buy for me.

Will definitely be skipping this one. I almost never use my Switch as it is. At home, I use the PC. I can emulate single player games like Breath of the Wild. On the go, I’ve been enjoying mobile games on my phone (surprisingly) or I use my laptop. The Switch hasn’t been a big draw.

Just to make sure, that was my point. I bought a $110 (on sale) 2tb card and expanded the memory. Games are becoming much bigger, maybe not Nintendo but the point stands. It’s irritating buying an expensive purchase then having to buy more. Idk it kinds feels like I want them to offer a “complete device for the time”. Comparable hardware to other entertainment systems.

Yeach 32gb on switch was a joke. And they really didint need to add that much storage to make purchase of sd card unnessesary. I have 128gb sd card on my switch and thats more than enough space for switch games( kinda helps that switch is my Indie machine and they dont exatcly weight a ton, so i would still recomend 256 at least for normal use)

Where did you find a 2tb micro SD card? I didn’t think they existed.

I can’t speak to their performance because they seem to be all one brand (and not a major one like SanDisk) but they ARE out there.

Only a matter of time before that territory is breached by the major player though. Nintendo themselves even have a branded 1 TB SD card (made by SanDisk ofc).

I’m alright with the “provide a moderate amount of storage and space to upgrade it” method. Keeps the base price down, while power users can have what they want too.

I stuffed an extra 2TB SSD in my PS5 for just under £100. Now see Apple’s iPad Pro pricing, where going from 128GB to 2TB adds a whopping £1250 to it, more than doubling the price.
