If you already picked up a Switch 2, you're probably looking for deals that
can help you kit out your new console without spending too much money. While
maybe not the most exciting thing, a microSD Express card will be a key
component for long-term gaming bliss. SanDisk's 256GB microSD Express Card
for the Switch 2 is on sale for the first time ahead of Black Friday, down to
$60 right now. This model is also available in storage sizes of 128GB and
512GB, but at the moment, only the 256GB model has a discount.

This particular model easily made our list of the best microSD cards for the
Nintendo Switch 2. It even made our list of the best Switch 2 accessories. It
just gets the job done. We loved the speed on offer here. It was the fastest
of all the cards we tested when transferring games and loading games.

We also found that it performed admirably at just about every test we threw
at it. The card was always consistently right near the top, thanks to
outstanding sequential read and write performance. This was backed up by
benchmark testing with PC tools like CrystalDiskMark.

The Switch 2 only works with SD Express cards, so this covers that. Luckily,
this card isn't just for Nintendo's latest console. It'll work with just
about everything, if you ever find it outstays its usefulness as a storage
container for Mario and friends. Elsewhere when it comes to microSD Express
cards on sale: PNY's 128GB card is down to $40.
