To help you budget the potential space you think you’ll need, the must-have Animal Crossing: New Horizons takes up around 7GB of memory storage, while Metroid Dread uses about 4.5GB. Of course, the bigger capacity cards are better if you’re planning to build a portable Switch library.

There are also alternative microSD cards if you don’t want to go down the official route. We’ve chosen Samsung’s EVO Plus range, as the Korean manufacturer has become something of a trusted go-to name for all things storage in recent years, particularly for gamers. Argos has both the 64GB and 128GB cards in stock. You can also read more about the best microSD cards over at Digital Foundry. All that remains now is to add some games!
