Can someone tell me what the best micro SD card is for the Switch?

I heard Gamestop says Nintendo recommended a "Sandisk" brand, but what is the best size?

 

[Giovanni D Valdez]

Google it lol thats faster than asking here

I picked up a 128 gb micro sd at GameStop when I picked up the switch!!!

Walmart.com has San Disk 128 gigs for $50.00.

According to what I read the Switch can go as high as a 2TB.

The best sd cards usually have a high read/ download upload speed which costs quite a lot. It really comes down to preference but plenty of people suggest SanDisk. I bought a 64gb for $20 and it's done the job so far

 

[Sara Scherhaufer]

It really depends on how much space you need between updates and the kind of games you're going to get including games from the eshop

 

[Jonathan Jurczak]

It's not about what's the "best" size, in as much as after you cross the 128 gb threshold, prices increase EXPONENTIALLY.

That's cutting edge consumer tech. You could get a decent 128 gb SD brand card for $60 or so. But a 256? That'll run you $200 - $300, depending on class.

True, the Switch can handle 2TB microSD cards, but those aren't nearly commercially available yet.

 

[Sam O'Neill]

128 GB Sandisk or Samsung, either is fine. Make sure it's a MicroSDXC. On amazon they're about $45 each but they regularly go on sale for $35-40, if you feel like waiting.

honestly any brand will do, so long as the one you choose has a good history of quality hardware, when companies give recommendations it is because of marketing deals
