How to Get Free Space on Your Nintendo Switch

Ever find yourself wondering how to free up space on your Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone! With so many awesome games to play, it’s no wonder we run out of room.

Let’s dive into how you can make room for all those must-play games on your Nintendo Switch.

Archive Games You’re Not Playing

The quickest way to free up space is by archiving the games you’re not currently playing. Don’t worry; you won’t lose your game data! Archiving simply removes the game files from your Switch while keeping your saves safely tucked away.

To archive a game, just go to the Home menu, select the game you want to archive, press the ‘+’ or ‘-‘ button, then select ‘Manage Software’ followed by ‘Archive Software.’ Easy peasy!

Get a MicroSD Card

Another fantastic solution is to expand your storage with a microSD card. The Nintendo Switch supports microSD cards up to 2TB, so you’ve got plenty of options.

Slide the microSD card into the slot hidden under the Switch’s kickstand, and voilà! You’ve got more space for games, screenshots, and video clips. Remember, downloading games directly to the microSD card saves the Switch’s internal memory for other uses.
