The Nintendo Switch might be an awesome gaming system, but it only offers 32GB of internal storage. Considering that larger games can take up 10GB or more of storage each, you'll definitely need to use a microSD card if you plan on playing several of the best Nintendo Switch games. Here are all of the Officially Licensed SanDisk MicroSD Cards for Nintendo Switch.
