I only have 2 games downloaded to the console. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe and Xenoblade 2. I wanted to try Fortnite but it says I have no download space.

That's what happens when you can't decide between making a console or a handheld and end up making it very underpowered.

The new versions coming out will be much better imo.

Right? I mean it's not like consoles having ample storage space has become the industry standard in the 25 years since the playstation was released, we're still figuring that stuff out

I dunno man, I think aside from a few minor faults they pretty much nailed it in terms of a hybrid console. Paying a bit extra for a MicroSD is no big deal.

At least Nintendo are fairly honest about needing external storage.

Sony is all "woah we have two tetrabytes of storage woah!"

And then you need to get an external HDD after downloading 2.5 games.

The 200 GB is a U1. I'd rather get a U3 for better load times.

I believe the only way to do that is with a Nintendo online subscription which lets you access their cloud storage.

PS4 and XB1 had only 500 GB as a starting standard, woefully tiny for anyone buying their digital games. 1TB is available too but you'll also fill that up pretty quickly if you're buying AAA games.

It was woefully tiny for everyone. On the PS4 and XB1, you have to fully install games from their discs. At least on the Switch physical games aren't installed. I just bought a 64 gb for DLCs and the occasional eshop title which I'll probably never fill up.

Are they behind, or are they thinking forward? They're using SSD rather than HDD, after all.

Doesn't it? You just create a backup of the game save file which is tied to your online account, which can then be accessed on any switch you log into.

Not every game supports save backups, but yeah you can do that for most games.

Save data you don't, I don't believe. It stays on system memory.

The other shitty feature of the SD card I had was that I had to redownload everything to the SD card. You couldn't manually move it over.

Other than that, I'm happy I have one.
