in 5 years ps6 will be a few years into it's existence and many games on ps6 will be almost impossible ports for switch 2 so we will likely be back where we are in the last years of switch1 life cycle where switch 1 missed out on many third party ports...
@McMongoose well the options for third party companies are 1 gig cards and 64 gig cards which are expensive ..hopefully in the future more size options will be available or cards get cheaper to make.
nintendo only has 64 gig cart sizes for third party publishers while nintendo itself has other sizes for it's own carts it is nintendo forcing key cards on third party companies..
one prominent nintendo youtuber from his sources says nintendo is only offering two file sizes for third party publishers for switch2 i size is 1gig and the other is 64 gigs no wonder most are going key card routes rather then use the expensive 64 gig carts..
