Why I'm glad to be getting Cyberpunk, Mario Kart and both Zelda games physically

TOTK is smaller but has more content than BOTW

justus61.bsky.social•1 day ago

I’m confused by the fact that BOTWs upgrade is bigger than TOTKs.

20xdee6.bsky.social•1 day ago

The older game obviously requires more work to get it up to spec than the newer game.

It's basically the same game and is the same engine though. I don't see why a simple uprez and performance increase would take up more resources on the smaller game

justus61.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I guess I get that but still it’s weird seeing it like this. Especially when TOTK is the bigger game.

Nintendo Switch 2 is only compatible with the new microSD Express card type that has high speed data transfer for memory expansion

128 GB: https://bit.ly/3Y6E0r8
256 GB: https://bit.ly/42mOJQM

Can any MicroSD Express be used or is there DRM so we have to have the official SD card?

orwellgaming.bsky.social•1 day ago

Probably any, if they wanted to force you to use their storage cards they'd make a proprietary form factor or whatever

grandshadowdude.bsky.social•1 day ago

no, there's no "DRM". You can use whatever SD Express card you want. Just like it's always been.

by the way you can be selective about your choices, you don’t have to buy them all

As a digital only Switch owner, these cards are what's having me second guess getting a system at launch.

A 1TB card (which isn't even enough to bring forward my Sw1 library) brings the upfront cost dangerously close to a PS5 pro.

I wish they allowed some sort of SSD in the dock or something.

donvi2.bsky.social•22 hours ago

so just don’t, you saying you’re not isn’t going to make nintendo change their mind

baddpenny.bsky.social•15 hours ago

what the hell is wrong with you.

donvi2.bsky.social•22 hours ago

you sound like you’re never happy about anything

Anyone know why Lexar is the only company that makes cards over 256GB? Is the technology that new?

flamesofchaos.bsky.social•1 day ago

There's also a GameStop branded MicroSD express lol. I wonder who is the manufacturer behind it

How is TotK an entire 4GB smaller than Breath of the Wild??

glenngunnerzero.bsky.social•1 day ago

And 3 of these aren't going to be available at launch so at the very least I wouldn't get an SD card until my storage is nearing that 60gb mark but that's me.

escarietson.bsky.social•1 day ago

Tears of the Kingdom is SMALLER than Breath Of The Wild? I didn't expect that...!

retrorynn.bsky.social•1 day ago

Man, Bravely Default and Yakuza would have EASILY fit on normal game cards, yet we got key cards instead. Disappointing. Hopefully we get complete editions later on.

flamesofchaos.bsky.social•1 day ago

Probably a 64GB game card would have been too expensive and would have increased the cost of Yakuza and Bravely.

Theres the rumor that Switch 2 game cards are only 8GB and 64GB. Hopefully there will be more different capacities later and that there will be less game-key cards but I doubt it.

darkforceisaac.bsky.social•23 hours ago

That would be insanely stupid of Nintendo to do, especially since the Switch to my knowledge has carts at 16gb and 32gb

Them doing that is shooting themselves in the foot

flamesofchaos.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I agree, though I have a feeling Switch 2 cards are also faster as far as read / write speeds compared to Switch 2 cards. Hopefully there will be less key cards later on but I'm not holding my breath

jeskido.bsky.social•1 day ago

All those games combined leaves you with 30gb of free space on the internal storage of switch 2.

The console is in danger of uncompressed games 🙃

thepatkelly.bsky.social•1 day ago

You'll need to buy a separate Switch 2 just to play Call of Duty.

Shame on Sega for Yakuza 0 being able to comfortably fit on a 64 GB game card but choosing to make it a key card instead
