@Spoony_Tech hopefully that doesn't happen to you. Again I was just speaking of my experiences. I have bought multiple sd cards, usb drives for years and I have never had a problem. I hope you don't have such problems.

I'd rather shell out more money for genuine products than for cheap knock-offs.

Making promise is easy. The hard part is keeping it.

@JaxonH Well it at least isn't from china so I'm giving it a shot. Hopefully it will be ok and work out.

That is one long link lol

Aww crap, it is from China. I'm still going with it and see what happens. At the very least hopefully I can send it back.

@Spoony_Tech
He's only sold one item before, and it was digital barcodes or something. Seems like someone who deals in bootlegs. Hes got a 256gb microSD for $16 and digital codes of Windows activations and PC games.

Seems like bootleg dealer. Hard to believe anyone would sell a 256gb that cheap when they go for $150 on Amazon. Even if it was stolen, people would likely ask for more than that. There's no reason not to.

Not trying to give you a hard time I just don't want to see you get scammed. MicroSD are one of those items you want to never, ever buy from anyone other than national, reputable retailers. Even eBay sellers with good feedback often have knockoffs and don't even know it

@Samus7Killer @electrolite77 Sine Mora EX physical still seems to be a thing. Just got an order update from Amazon that it has a new release date of Oct28-Nov2. So just a delay, not a cancellation.

Speaking of sd cards.... Is there any software in the switch or other devices that let you know when you have a bad card or one that has been rewritten to fake an amount of storage available?

@JaxonH Well I don't see any way to cancel at this time so I might as well go through with it. I will chalk this up as a learning experience if need be even though I went against my own set of rules when purchasing this type of item.

Can anybody give a rough estimate as to how many eShop games (interested in ones like Snake Pass, I am Setsuna, Blaster Master Zero, etc.) would fit on certain sized cards? There is no way I am going to pay how much a 256 GB is going for. Would a 64 GB be enough?

Spoony_Tech

@Xyphon22 While some games are small like Steamworld Dig 2 (like 200 something mb) others like Snakepass are I think about 4.7gigs. NBA Playgrounds is about 8 to 9 gigs. If you're thinking for the life of the system you may want to go with a 128gb.

@Xyphon22 I Am Setsuna is technically a retail release, but clocks in at a measly 1.3 GB. Snake Pass is actually pretty big for an eshop game at 3.7 GB, closer to the size of most retail games. Blaster Master Zero and most other sprite based games only clock in around 200 MB. With a 64GB card, you're probably looking at being able to download 80 or so games at a time (not counting the 32GB), depending on which titles you choose of course. Theoretically if you stuck to NeoGeo titles you could get over 300 of them lol. Not to mention, you can always archive old titles to redownload later.

Got a quick response anyways from the seller.

@JaxonH maybe it released in some regions but not NA? Could be a printing issue or freight issue. Hurricanes rerouting container ships and such (and annihilated dock facilities)

@Samus7Killer i have my hori hrap ready for it, so switch is the only way to go for me!

@Spoony_Tech @link3710 Thanks for the info. I just checked my Wii U data storage and it looks like I've used 196 GB on my hard drive plus most of the system memory. But I also have a lot of stuff on there that I could easily get rid of like every demo ever. So I guess if I can find a really good deal on a 128 GB card I'll go for that, but I think I will be okay if I settle for 64. I learned that I definitely did not need a 1 TB hard drive, though.

I would love to see a Wii U fifa vs Switch fifa comparison.... The same with NBA 2k.

@Xyphon22 I didn't even fill up half my 320gig hardrive on my Wii U but when retail games are requiring extra storage that worries me. Let's just take GTA5 (assuming the rumors are true) for example, I'm hearing it's close to 32 gigs on the last gen systems and I'm willing to bet they will use a 16gb retail card and offload the rest on us. Now if 3rd party games don't interest you then 64gigs should be fine.
