Yep, looks like game-keys are going to be the standard for third party on switch 2.Which is a shame considering the 256gb storage and expensive SD cards. But not going to be an issue for me.

I'd love to know how much more the switch 2 cartridges cost to make than the switch 1 carts.

Nintendo at least offered several options with 8, 16, and 32GB cartridges. I remember they were working on 64GB cartridges early in the Switch’s life, but supposedly were having technical issues and dropped it.

So standard cards for Switch 2 I imagine cost more than Switch 1 cards ever did since now 64GB is the only larger capacity card available.

I guess that justifies the higher prices for certain games, as long as all the memory on the card is used.
