Free up some real estate on your Switch
The Nintendo Switch only comes with 32GB of internal storage, which is minuscule if you plan on having more than just a handful of games and apps downloaded to your handheld console. The solution is to use a microSD card to expand the Switch’s storage. But what’s the easiest way to do that? And if you already have a microSD card and want to use a new one with more capacity, how do you migrate your files? Don’t worry; we’ll walk you through it all.
Insert your new microSD card into the slot. You should hear a slight click once it’s securely docked. From the game data information screen, scroll down to Archive Software and select it. A confirmation pop-up should appear warning that the game data will be archived; however, your saved data and game icon will remain on the Switch’s home screen. Confirm your selection by hitting Archive.
Repeat as necessary for each game that you want to download straight to the microSD card. Future purchases and downloads will correctly route to the microSD card instead of the internal storage.If you already have a microSD card installed and want to swap it for, say, a faster or larger card, then you’ll need a computer to back up your files.
Now that all your game files are backed up to your computer, you can remove the microSD card from the slot .
