Lexar Offers Low Prices on MicroSD Express Cards for Nintendo Switch 2
As Nintendo Switch 2 owners grapple with the limitations of the console’s 256GB internal storage, Lexar has reacted to rising demand by significantly reducing prices on its microSD Express cards. The 512GB model is available for $88.47, down from its original price by $31, while the 1TB variant is now $157.96 after a $62 discount, reports 24brussels.
The reduced prices offer a timely solution for gamers who find their internal storage quickly depleted by digital game purchases. This storage expansion allows owners to seamlessly manage their gaming libraries without frequent deletions. The high-speed capabilities of Lexar’s cards cater specifically to the needs of Switch 2 users.
For those considering various options, the 512GB card is favored for its balance between cost and capacity, especially since comparable offerings from other brands like Onn remain frequently out of stock. Given the competitive pricing, securing additional storage now can preempt future hassles for users relying on digital formats.
The storage capacity you opt for will ultimately determine how many games can be stored. For instance, games such as Donkey Kong Bananza require only 8.9GB, while larger titles like Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition consume up to 60.6GB. With the trend of publishers favoring downloadable content, investing in additional space is becoming increasingly necessary for every Nintendo user.
This shift also highlights the changing landscape of game distribution; several publishers have adopted Nintendo’s Game-Key cards that function as digital keys for game downloads. Consequently, even physical copies of games may necessitate supplementary storage, reinforcing the practicality of owning a microSD Express card.
