Wondering about the best SD card size for your Nintendo Switch? You’re in the right place!

Let’s dive into finding out how big an SD card your Nintendo Switch can handle.

Optimal SD Card Size for Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch supports SD cards up to 2TB in size. However, finding a 2TB card can be tricky and expensive. For most gamers, a 128GB or 256GB SD card strikes the perfect balance between cost and capacity.

With games varying in size from less than 1GB to more than 30GB, a larger SD card means you can download more games without worrying about running out of space. If you plan to download many games, especially big titles, opt for a larger SD card.
