PNY has released an upgraded microSD Express card for Nintendo Switch 2 users, as you can now get your hands on the new 512GB microSD Express. While you can use this in any device that allows for a microSD, the team has come right out and said this is specifically for the new Nintendo console as a solution for memory storage after they forced everyone to change to Express cards. It may not be up there with the 1TB cards people were getting last year for the regular Switch, but it's a process for companies to develop the tech to meet the demand, and right now, half a Terabyte is better than only a quarter of one. We have more details for you below from the company about this latest design upgrade, as it's currently going for about $120 on Amazon, with it soon to be added to their own online listing.
