Snag a $38 MicroSD Card for Your Switch 2 Before Amazon Annihilates Lingering Prime Day Deals

Load more games for your Nintendo Switch 2 with a PNY or Lexar MicroSD Express card and never get bored when you’re playing on the go.

If you’re the owner of a Nintendo Switch 2, you know that these top-rated gaming consoles can only store so many games and add-ons. To add more storage, you’ll need a memory card. The MicroSD cards compatible with our favorite handheld gaming console aren’t exactly cheap. However, we’ve found a few remaining Prime Day deals on PNY and Lexar MicroSD Express cards that can save you as much as 28% right now.

If you’re on a tight budget but still want to enhance your Nintendo Switch 2, then this PNY MicroSD Express card with 128GB is down to just $38. This saves you $7. PNY’s MicroSD Express card is made to stay at a cool, safe temperature and increase download speeds so you can get to your games faster.

There are also 512GB MicroSD Express cards available from Lexar for only $88, which is $32 off. These are capable of reading speeds as fast as 900MB/s for impressive performance. Although it’s compatible with the Nintendo Switch 2, it can also be used with the ASUS ROG Ally and the original Nintendo Switch 1. Amazon has also slashed the price of the Lexar 1TB MicroSD Express card to $158, down from $220.

Still have your trusty original Nintendo Switch? You can grab the Lexar 128GB MicroSD card for just $11, but this can’t be used with the Nintendo Switch 2.

Why this deal matters

The Nintendo Switch 2 is one of our favorite gaming consoles but gamers who want more options might need to expand their device’s memory. Right now, we’ve found MicroSD Express cards for as little as $38 — thanks to remaining Prime Day deals. That means you can still save on these trusty memory cards while this deal is still live.
