  • Technically plug n play
Style: Super Mario Super Mushroom Capacity: 128GB
We purchased this SD Card so we could plug and play in the Nintendo Switch without having to go through all the formatting one requires usually. It was a successful purchase and use, allowing more space for more games and so much more fun. The cost for the amount of space is what I expect on the market today. I wouldn't say it's a great value because none of the SD Cards are, but it's on par with the rest. A truly competitive seller would consider repricing for competition, but in this case that may not be necessary considering the name branding. SanDisk is a trusted brand and this particular card is Licensed for Nintendo Switch, making it worth the purchase if you value ease of use. ... show more

  • Works great OOB for switch, still needs reformatting for n3ds
Style: Super Mario Super Star Capacity: 256GB
So, I knew this was specifically for a switch, but because it was nintendo branded, I assumed it'd also be pre-formatted for other nintendo consoles. It comes in exfat format, which is great for the switch, and with a cursory check of reddit, it seemed that the n3ds could use that format for larger cards. It cannot, it still has to use fat32, but thanfully with another reddit search and rufus, I was able to reformat it beautifully, and get it to work on other nintendo consoles. I'm sure I paid an upcharge for the nintendo branding, but I like having a big SD card and one that makes it obvious that it has games on it, as well as the gurantee it's the size it says it is, and isn't a rip off microsd that is using a capacity scam. 5/5 because while it didn't work immediately for my 3ds, it is marketed for switch, and formatted and ran beautifully once I did 30 seconds of googling. It's a nice microsd card with large capacity and a cute design, so I can't go wrong. ... show more

  • Costly, but worth it.
Style: Legend of Zelda Capacity: 1TB
$$$$ - but it is installed easily and works smoothly. Increased memory capacity from 60G to 1 Terabyte and now I can download all the games I need.

  • Great for the switch or Wii U (with adaptor)
Style: Yoshi Capacity: 64GB
The micro sd card is great and works as advertised. It might not be the fastest micro sd card on read and writes, but it still has great speeds and the Yoshi themed design adds some extra flair.

  • Works great!
Style: Legend of Zelda Capacity: 1TB
Needed more memory for the switch. Rated 4/5 because it’s weird to pay for a 1TB and get like 980gb. I get it technology wise we aren’t there yet, but I wish it was labeled for what the actual storage is.

  • Enough storage for a reasonable price
Style: Super Mario Super Star Capacity: 256GB
