The story so far
AI summary of the reporting below · Updated · How we work
Retail discounts have hit high-speed memory cards built for the Nintendo Switch 2. Walmart reduced the officially licensed SanDisk 512GB GamePlay microSD Express card to $98 from its standard price of over $120. Meanwhile, Amazon lowered the 256GB Samsung P9 Express microSDXC card by $20, selling it for $59.99 against a $79.99 list price. [1][2]
The price cuts arrive amid ongoing industry shortages of DRAM and NAND memory. Older microSD formats cannot run or store Nintendo Switch 2 games, requiring players to turn to newer Express media. To meet those performance demands, SanDisk's card pairs PCIe hardware with NVMe protocols to hit read speeds reaching 880 MB/s, write speeds of up to 650 MB/s, and sustained writes of 220 MB/s alongside adaptive thermal management.
