GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The discount stands out because ongoing DRAM and NAND shortages have generally made storage deals scarcer, so a price cut on a Switch 2-compatible card is notable for buyers now. Since older microSD cards aren't compatible with the Switch 2, dedicated Express cards like this one are effectively required for expanding storage, making pricing on them more consequential for console owners relying on digital game libraries.
- SanDisk's 512GB GamePlay microSD Express card is $98 at Walmart, down from over $120.
- The card is officially licensed for Switch 2 and offers up to 880 MB/s read speeds.
- Older microSD cards cannot be used with the Switch 2, making compatible Express cards necessary for storage expansion.
