- PNY has revealed express microSD cards compatible with nintendo switch 2
- They are now available in 128 GB and 256 GB capabilities
- Wait pay $ 44.99 for the 128 GB card and $ 55.99 for the 256 GB option
Now that the Nintendo Switch 2 is just a couple of weeks after the launch on June 5 (no, we cannot believe it), it is possible that it is already looking for storage options if you have managed to make a successful anticipated order.
The PNY manufacturer could have it covered there, since he has just announced and launched its new MicroSd Express card line. Compatible with Nintendo Switch 2 (and replacing the previous microSD format), PNY memory cards can be bought on the brand’s website now or in the participating retailers soon.
PNY MicroSD Express options come in two sizes. The 128 GB card is available to buy for $ 44.99 (around £ 39.99), while the 256 GB card, which coincides with the internal storage size of Switch 2, can be collected for $ 55.99 (around £ 49.99).
In addition, the 128 GB card has reading and writing speeds of 890 MB/Sy 550 MB/s, respectively. Meanwhile, the 256 GB card has the same reading speed but an improved writing rate of 750 MB/s, which makes it the fastest of the two.
So why would you want to buy a MicroSD Express card at the launch of Nintendo Switch or around Nintendo? After all, the system itself has 256 GB, which is a great improvement on the original 32 GBs of Nintendo Switch (or 64 GB in Nintendo Switch Oled).
Well, when you consider that switch games are compatible with Switch 2, you may want that additional tranquility if you are transferring your library and save your new console. Especially because your old microSD cards will not be compatible with Switch 2. If you want to take everything without problems, have a MicroSD Express card ready to use will save the headache of choosing and choose which games you want to wear.
That said, if you just plan to keep one or two games in the launch, such as Mario de Mario Kart either Street Fighter 6, It can be allowed to stop collecting a MicroSD Express card until the Switch 2 library grows in the coming years.
