    Works perfectly as described
    The SD card came as expected, and works perfectly for extra storage inside my Nintendo Switch. It is very fiddly to get out of the packaging, but if you follow the instructions on the Nintendo website, it should be fine unless you have very large fingers or limited dexterity in your hands.

    Great produc
    This product worked immediately out of the box providing the maximum read/ write speed for the Nintendo switch console thanks to it being shipped in the correct format.

    This option is exceptional value for money and directly endorsed by Nintendo so you can be sure it will work.

    Not alot to say, its a cool memory card
    I required more storage space on my Nintendo Switch, I bought this memory card, I inserted it into my Switch, problem solved.

    Hard to say anything more, it’s packaged nice and the card is cool, but you don’t see the design once it’s inserted. Still great quality regardless!

    Easy to load
    Daughter complained about lack of storage so this was her solution. Amazon made it easy to find the Nintendo authentic item. Arrived promptly, loaded it and extra storage magically appeared. Haven’t used the Nintendo do da since but so far everything seems just right.

    Good. But check your needs firs
    Good speed and performance. Easy to install.

    Good value for money. But make sure that this memory size is what you need. As after purchasing, I realised that I should have gotten a larger memory size.

    Also, this does not include an adaptor. And needs formatting first.

    Great storage solution.
    It arrived quickly and has added loads of extra storage to my daughters nintendo switch lite, so now she doesn’t need to delete any games and can add/save loads more.

    Cool little logo to help distinguish your cards
    Have 3 of them in each switch in the house and they have never gone wrong or failed but probably not that much different to officially licensed SD cards u do get a cool little logo of your choice on the Nintendo branded ones

    Nice
    Very fast, plenty of storage, bought to replace my Mario mushroom themed one as it ran out of capacity, only complaint is that it probably isn’t the best value for money but it’s ok

    Infernal packing
    As other SanDisk mini SD cards, this one comes in the hard plastic blister mounted in as card. Scissors or a modelling knife needed to get at it.

    I realise why they do this, but it is a real nuisance.

    Fantastic produc
    I brought this as I like playing on my switch but I’m always running out of room. This fixed the problem. It was handy that you can pay for it in installments and you don’t pay any extra.

    The SanDisk Nintendo Switch 128GB memory card has revolutionized my kids gaming experience on the console. , my kids were constantly running out of storage space due to the growing library of games and downloadable content.

The card’s seamless compatibility with the Nintendo Switch means I can easily transfer games and data, without any performance hiccups. Load times are snappy, and gameplay remains smooth and uninterrupted.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersGreat for expanding memory of Nintendo Switch
    I purchased this micro SD card as I again faced the dreaded ‘you dont have enough space’ on my kids Nintendo Switch console. Having located the correct installation micro sd port (for non-OLED models it’s under the stand at the back) I then went into Settings and moved all data over to the SD card and after10mins everything was transferred and the kids now have enough space for the anticipated rainy Summer holidays!

    Does what it says on the tin!
    I bought this for my children’s switch device. Seems to do what it is meant for. Another reviewer had kindly posted about following the prompts for the updates as “normal” when adding additional memory and following this advice worked fine.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersREASONABLE Switch expansio
    Before you purchase, ask yourself a few questions:

    * Do you have a base Nintendo Switch model, or an OLED model (with larger on-board storage)?
    * Are you buying mostly physical games, or mostly digital (as this is an expansion you might need)?
    * How big is your game library, or how big do you intend it to get (in which case get a bigger card)?

    With a 64GB card on an original Switch model, I personally am a mostly physical gamer, meaning most of my games are on a cartridge with the saves being saved on the console, but I’ve managed to expand beyond the console’s abilities to allow myself a couple of blockbuster games to be playable straight off the card.

    64GB gets you, along with a snazzy Triforce logo on the card, a reasonable expansion of your base Switch console, several full game downloads, plus captured screenshots and videos from your playthroughs.

    Memory juggling does come into play if you overdo this modest capacity – and that’s the key word. Just remember – there’s no special optimisation here for Switch – no quicker read speeds or file systems – it’s just a Triforce emblazoned micro SD.

    Overall it’s up to the Switch owners to pick this over a 128GB card or more based on gaming style and intensity. But I’m still good with a physical to digital ratio of maybe 70/30.
