Save $50 Off a 512GB Nintendo Switch 2 Memory Card That We've Personally Tested and Vetted

Looking for a good price (nowadays) for a reliable Switch 2 memory card? Ahead of Black Friday, Amazon has dropped the price of the highly rated Samsung P9 512GB Micro SDXC Express Card to $99.99 with free shipping after a $50 instant discount. Is this the lowest price it has ever been? No. Are there cheaper memory cards out there? Yes. But if you're looking for a memory card that we've personally tested and recommend, you won't find a better deal today.

The Switch 2 only comes with 256GB of onboard storage and it will run out faster than you think. If you have a standard MicroSD card from your previous Switch, it won't work on the Switch 2. Although the two might look similar, the MicroSD Express card is much faster than its precedessor. The Samsung P9 model boasts transfer speeds of up to 800MB/s.

Quite a few games have now been released for the Switch 2 and some of them require an enormous amount of space. Final Fantasy 14 is the most gigabyte-hungry game to date, requiring about 117GB all by itself. That game alone takes up half of the Switch 2's internal storage capacity. Other plus-sized games include Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (90GB), Split Fiction (70GB), Cyberpunk 2077 (60GB), and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment (44GB). The upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will top out at about 27GB. Nowadays it's completely possible to download just three or four games and find yourself completely out of onboard storage.
