@Gorlock True. But I recently got into AudioCD collecting, so I'm not the right person for that conversation. The walls look nicer with CD Jewelcases attached to them. Pretty 😺
As for Switch games. I always only keep the gamecard and paperinlay. The cards are so easy to stash its insane 😊
@RupeeClock
No not really:
Minimum: 8gig
Max:64 gig
Nothing inbetween
Can you see why we will get ALOT game key cards
PS:
Bravely Def Remaster is 11 gig
If we could "Local-User-Match" the gamecart data like updates it'd be less terrible when server shutdown.
The only thing a Nintendo Rep told me was
"Thank you for your interest in the Nintendo Switch 2 and the Game Key Cards. While we understand your enthusiasm, at this point we cannot provide you with any other details than what can already be found on the official Nintendo website."
Grreat.
@Zadaris
But the past is not locked to console and requiring serverbased online auth.
If downloads initiated via game-key-carts can be "local user match" ed to nearby switches (who have the game key cart in aswell)
They will only start with inserted key card anyways,
but buying multi game cards and syncing from Switch2 #1 to #2 will be faster on my trash wifi
(I know what I talk about, I just synced the entire recent Apex 25 gig update from Switch2Switch in 10 hours less thsn another download)
Oh and something something preserve after eShop closure

Re: Opinion: Steam Deck Fans Are Seriously Underestimating The Switch 2
I've had a Deck for over. a year now.
Had fun setting it up, getting KingdomHearts and FFVIIR aswell as FFVIIRebirth and FFXIII for it ..
..
And then I let it collect dust.
It's nice.
But its not a Switch
There is so much to do to make games run.
Its annyoing
Also ApexLegends left the "DeckVerified" tier.
It's a joke. Devs treat it like garbage

Nothing!
Re: "We MUST Resist Buying These Game-Key Releases", Says GamesMaster Host

No.
I'm referring to copying the downloaded data to a SECONDARY Switch2 unit over LocalWifi

Re: Switch 2 Game Cart Max Capacity Is 64GB, Says CD Projekt Red

It isn't.
Not for the shoddy non optimizing thirds.

Consumers are dumb enough to be happy to pay for game key cards just the same
Re: Switch 2 Game Cart Max Capacity Is 64GB, Says CD Projekt Red
@cylemmulo
No There is not a single 64 gig switch cart game iirc.
Oh great.
64. By Switch 3 we'll have 128. Revolutionary.
Get ready for all third publisher to give us game key carts only from now one
If the download was at least a LocalUserMatchupAble Update and not DLC esque download.
