It's official: The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to launch on June 5, and excitement is building after a comprehensive Nintendo Direct that unveiled new games and detailed the Switch 2's hardware. As the launch date approaches, preorders for essential accessories like microSD Express cards, which are the only compatible storage cards for the Switch 2, are now available.

As demand for these cards soars, they're selling out quickly. However, GameStop has come to the rescue with their own line of microSD Express cards available for preorder. Ranging from 256GB ($49.99) to 512GB ($84.99) to 1TB ($149.99), these cards will be released on the same day as the console, June 5. To ensure you don't miss out on these essential accessories, consider preordering them below. For the latest updates on available cards, keep our microSD Express cards hub page bookmarked.

Given the rapid sell-out of microSD Express cards at other retailers, securing a storage upgrade before the Switch 2's release is crucial. While the Switch 2 will come with 256GB of internal storage, a significant increase from the original Switch's 32GB, avid gamers with large game libraries may still benefit from additional storage space.
