| Chrkeller said: Why are people skeptical of 512 storage? The average ps4 game is 40 to 60 gb.... isn't the switch 2 like the ps4? Nintendo has to prefer people to go digital over physical for the profit margins. I beleive the 512 gb storage more than the 12 gb ram. 128 gb isn't remotely enough, heck DLC will fill that up. |
You new to Nintendo or something? And have you never heard of SD cards? Your comment makes it seem like you have no knowledge of the Switch.
Plenty of Switch games are >10gb and it only has 32gb. Hell, some games on Switch are larger than the usable size of storage in the Switch. 512gb would be ENORMOUS compared to what one would expect for the next system. Everyone that has a Switch buys SD cards (unless they never buy digital) that have way more storage than the system. No reason to think next gen will be any different.
512gb is 16x larger than what the Switch has. So if Nintendo goes with the same storage strategy as Switch that would mean they expect games to get 16x larger. Obviously games are not getting 16x larger. Also, Nintendo makes affordable systems, so there is no reason to increase the cost of the system by adding a bunch of storage when they know regardless of how much storage they put in it people are going to need to get a large SD card as well. Everyone knows they will be getting an SD card far larger than what the system will have.
512gb would make no sense for Nintendo to do. 256gb is possible, though I would think it would be more likely the choice for a later upgraded model (the way Nintendo upgraded the OLED to 64gb). 128gb is very likely and would be in line with Nintendo's decision to do 32gb in the Switch.
