The Nintendo Switch doesn’t come with a lot of built-in storage, so you’ll need to buy a microSD card to expand it. Good work we are doing the best Black Friday deals period, then, because these microSD cards (that’s the specific size required – smaller than “normal” SD cards) are even cheaper right now.

THE Original Nintendo Switch offers 32 GB of storage; THE newer Switch OLED model double that to 64GB. Regardless, with system information taking up some of that space, once you start downloading a game or two, you’ll quickly use up the space – a download averages around 8GB , but can exceed 30 GB.

Choosing an SD card for your Nintendo Switch requires a few considerations (I’ll detail “Class Speed” at the base of this article, for example). Also, don’t buy something that seems too good to be true: it exists reports of fake cards being sold on Amazon from non-reputable brands. So follow our recommendations below!
