The measly 32GB that comes built-in to the base console tends to fill up in a flash. <\/p>\n<p>In fact, as soon as you&#8217;ve bought a couple of mid-sized games, you&#8217;ll need to find a way to upgrade. And to do that, you&#8217;re going to want a Nintendo Switch SD card.\n<\/p>\n<p>Though essential, extra storage is never the most exciting purchase. Fortunately, this Black Friday, there are deals that will make it a relatively painless one: at least you can feel good about saving some money.\n<\/p>\n<p>Depending on what you&#8217;re after, Amazon has a couple of Micro SD card discounts worthy of your attention.\n<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the cheapest option that won&#8217;t run out of room in the blink of an eye is the 128GB SanDisk Micro SD card. They&#8217;re selling for \u00a313.99, meaning SanDisk has knocked \u00a32 off. Or at least, that&#8217;s what Amazon claims, but in the recent past this model has hovered around the \u00a320 mark. This is one deal that&#8217;s probably even better than it looks.\n<\/p>\n<p>But if you want real value for money, and an SD card that may well last the lifespan of your Switch, right now it&#8217;s not such a big step up to the 200GB version. Usually priced at \u00a334.72, the current discount of 45% brings it down to just \u00a318.99. Not too shabby!\n<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re after an SD card that&#8217;s top of the range, there&#8217;s also the Nintendo licensed 256GB variant. We wouldn&#8217;t typically recommend this, since it&#8217;s fairly overpriced, and the only real benefit to going official is a little star decoration you&#8217;ll never look at. (It won&#8217;t make your card invincible, either.)<br \/>\nThey&#8217;re currently selling at half price, which makes them a fair bit more appealing, but that&#8217;s still a hefty \u00a339.99. It really depends whether or not you&#8217;ve got cash to splash and think you&#8217;ll be able to use the additional 56GB!<\/p>\n<figure class=\"video\">\n<div readability=\"7\">\n<div class=\"video-container\" readability=\"9\"> <iframe width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen data-youtube=\"true\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vbItTEmozxw?enablejsapi=1\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"message\">This content is hosted on an external platform, which will only display it if you accept targeting cookies.
