That's great, but Switch games routinely come in at ~20 GB. That means with 256 GB you can have 12 games at a time, if you don't have anything else such as demo

That's great, but Switch games routinely come in at ~20 GB. That means with 256 GB you can have 12 games at a time, if you don't have anything else such as demos, screenshots, replays, etc. Once you've reached that capacity, it's much better to use physical games rather than having to cycle through deleting and reinstalling.
- reificator 7y agoThank you for reminding me to double check, it turns out I only have 1.6 gigs left. (And 25 or so on internal storage) I think I only have a 128 gig in here now that I'm counting. (The menu only tells you free space, not capacity) I have 31 "games" installed, where NES, Genesis, Spyro, Crash, Hotline Miami, and Contra collections each count as 1. The top three are Spyro, (which isn't even out yet) Smash, and Zelda, which are 14.8 to 15 gigs. I could get rid of Zelda and not really notice tbh. Next biggest is Doom 3 at 8.8, then a bunch of 6.x games. 16 of them are 1.1 or smaller. So not quite as dire as you're making it out to be, but in fairness my tastes skew more indie and retro than the average.
