Do people actually download switch games? I would only buy carts and therefore could not give a damn about a lot of storage.

Do you think games are still going to run off slow carts on the next generation? I expect installations will be mandatory. I very much doubt we'll have Switch 2 games running off 60-100MB/s carts with other consoles using 2400MB/s and 5500MB/s SSD's, at the very least *some* games will require installing to faster storage.

The internal storage of the Switch 2 is 2100MB/s. There is no way games would be running off a standard SD Card. The Switch 2 is rumored use SD Express cards from Samsung. Those have a max speed of 985MB/s
