About this deal

PanurgeJr No worries man, like I said: no offense, but you certainly had me scratching my head in wonder for a couple of seconds there... We'd recommend going for one of the premium offerings if you can, but it shouldn't make a huge difference for the average user." You keep bringing up points that are either almost completely false, or at the very least partially flawed/slanted. You'd have to do far better than that to be able to convince me of anything.

Don't buy an SD card until you really need one, they will only get cheaper. Likewise don't buy one larger than you need, you can always get another later.

Situation Not Resolved:

It was actually far from stupid that Nintendo didn't go with hard disk drives for a portable system......HDD's are not compatible with playing on the go! It's kind of a given, though, seeing as most HDD's only go up to 1 or 2 MB/s random access read speed, which is important for loading open world games... Just absolutely outdated and abysmal performance for any modern gaming machine. The NS should load smooth as butter by comparison, due to being built to fully utilize flash and solid state memory, normalizing random access read speeds that are 10's of times faster than HDD's. BotW and Skyrim for NS will really show this off. cleveland124 If you're talking about cards, sure, but we're talking about flash memory chips, perhaps NAND flash chips, and we can't be sure on that until we get a teardown going after launch. NAND and other flash chip memory is much more expensive than SD flash memory. Even with manufacturing costs being low, they are typically sold higher corresponding to the higher memory size, especially when it's not removable.

Given how little the speed differs between the different cards that the Switch does support, we recommend just ignoring that aspect entirely and just grabbing the cheapest you can find. It really doesn't make much difference.

Complete These Steps:

Spoony_Tech SD cards are actually incredible convenient. Thats why i have an amazing library on my 3DS with a 64GB SD card. Yes, it's expensive, and 32gb storage is incredibly low, but i think Nintendo is ahead of the competition on this one. In any case, no mandatory installs, which is also why I don't understand and agree with all the whiners that claim that compare the Switch's 32GB to the Xbox One's & PS4's internal HDD. Seeing as both these consoles DO require mandatory installs of games, you obviously need the bigger storage space.
