Just as I had feared, Switch 2 SD cards have not been spared from the current gaming storage pricing hellscape
The price of MicroSD Express cards for the Nintendo Switch 2 has significantly increased, with 1TB models now costing over $300, a substantial jump from their original MSRPs. This price hike is attributed to the ongoing global semiconductor shortage, which is affecting all types of storage, including those used in gaming consoles. Consumers are advised to purchase storage sooner rather than later due to expected further price increases.
