minus-squareShakeThatYam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoSwitch games aren’t; the large ones are 20-50GB. And you can just toss in a 1-2 TB SD card if you need more storage.

minus-squareatocci@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoI think the Steam Deck tops out at 512GB as well, so it’s pretty reasonable IMO.
