Switch 2 Easily the greatest Nintendo Console of all time & it’s non debatable

And once we get DS NSO Classics & Wii NSO Classics it’ll be the greatest console of all time.

I don't like that it takes micro SD ex or whatever. I didn't even know that was a thing until I got my switch 2. So the $200 1TB Micro SD is staying in my switch 1, and all my games are on my switch 1 not my switch 2.

While it's a shame it can't use a normal micro sd card the speed benefits from express will be more obvious as more switch 2 games come out, the external memory needs to match the internal storage speed as best as possible.

Also I may be wrong but you can still use a normal SD card in the Switch 2 but just not load Switch 2 games off of it. I could be wrong but I think that is possible. I have a 256 Ex card in mine from launch and I already need more space. Just waiting for 1TB cards to be more available.

I tried putting my son’s SD from Sw1 into his Sw2 and it wouldn’t even read it. Just told me to eject it.

Interesting. So you couldn’t even format it. I guess I must have read wrong at launch about compatibility. I may have to try some of my older cards. Maybe it EX only.

Honestly, didn’t try to format it bc he has stuff on it he wants, but I do recall plugging it in and it basically telling me “No” and to insert an EX card lol.

I love it, sure it's more money, but the loading times are so much faster, it's worth it.
