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

Looks like you are having fun 😹
@bones
In their defense, Nintendo already implemented the best anti scalp system on their store.

Re: "We MUST Resist Buying These Game-Key Releases", Says GamesMaster Host
I just realized nothing matters:
These carts need a server connection on first launch.
So we are done
Re: Random: Mouse Work Dev Nitrome Shows Off Its "Frankenstein Joy-Con 2 Alternative"
@WhiteUmbrella
There are already printables
for the new joycons (thanks to the stuped leakers)
Unless Nintendo is not able to make a working laserdiode, what could possibly go wrong...

Why ? Got sahara sand in your gearworks ?

This looks so cute (๑╹ω╹๑ )
@WhiteUmbrella
Same exact sensor, should be as good as a mouse with extra buttons and an analogue stick
@AnonyQ
Why ? They can add a mini trackpad like SteamDeck has.
Also what prevents you from connecting a joycon2 to a switch lite ?
Nothing!
Re: "We MUST Resist Buying These Game-Key Releases", Says GamesMaster Host
@Olmectron
No.
I'm referring to copying the downloaded data to a SECONDARY Switch2 unit over LocalWifi
Also you forget one very important point:
The data on device still alwqys requires the game key to be inserted to even boot
CD DRM we are back

Re: Community: What Questions About Switch 2 Do You Still Have For Nintendo?
@Boogaloo_Jenkins
Yes.
Old controllers were already confirmed
Joycons too
Micro should work in handheld too
3 is a "no"
Not even all games are comp yet.
Every game need a switch2 patch to run better

Re: Some Fans Are Drawing Unfavourable Comparisons Between Switch 2 And Xbox One
If they had really no interest, they' d just move on...
But wanting and being loud at the same time.
I'm sure Nintendo will lower all prices just for alt people
Re: Nintendo Of America President Says Tariffs "Not Factored" Into Switch 2 Price
@johnvboy
Seeing as how much bad rep is voiced every day that seems unlikely.
I mean I agree.
Day one.
But the bad mood is annoying
Re: Nintendo Of America President Says Tariffs "Not Factored" Into Switch 2 Price
Nintendo should've delayed the Switch2 ...
@OrtadragoonX
I kinda misread that last sentence...
Ugh
Re: Switch 2 Game Cart Max Capacity Is 64GB, Says CD Projekt Red
@KoopaTheGamer
It isn't.
Not for the shoddy non optimizing thirds.
Besides.
What makes you think publishers will even buy 64 carts.
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.
But like things are now we are buying ewaste

Re: Elden Ring's Switch 2 Physical Version Seemingly Tarnished By 'Game-Key Card' Release
And this is a launch game.
Gues the Switch2 will fail from the very beginning.
Nothing it introduced aside specs was positive
@Slain
I wonder how much "physical" will be left.
I bet Square Enix will release 0 on cart games and big games will always be gamekeycards
Profit maximization
We lost.

Yuffie story.

Having mod support is sweet tho.

Re: Nintendo's Switch 2 'Game-Key Cards' Somehow Manage To Make Codes-In-A-Box Worse
Wait..
As this counts as "downloading an update" Local user match should work...
Maybe its not as hopeless as I thought..
Just how big are Switch two games ?!
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake: Intergrade Is Making The Leap To Switch 2
@Arnold-Kage
Disney will rather stop operating than grace the Switch2 with proper KH...
Maybe if KHIV releases, so they can milk it one final time,
but SE failed to an incredible degree.
As for FFVII:
Meh.
Have both on SteamDeck already.
And SE only revealing Intergrade ?
Nah.

Re: Ex-Nintendo Duo Unsure Mario Kart 9 Will Be An Instant "Slam Dunk" For Switch 2
If all they can do is dunk on their EX Exmployer they should just quit.
Krysta especially roasted Nintendo so hard in their video yesterday ( https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ICwomsnIee4&pp=0gcJCWIABgo59PVc ) I thought I was on the wrong channel.
Who do they think they are ?
and its Mariokart.
Ofc it will sell.
