Last updated
Wondering about the number of games your Nintendo Switch can handle? You’re not alone! Many gamers ask this same question, especially when they’re eyeing the next exciting addition to their collection.
Let’s dive straight into the heart of the matter: How many games can the Nintendo Switch actually hold? The answer isn’t as straightforward as you might hope, but don’t worry, we’ve got the scoop!
The Short-Form Answer
The number of games a Nintendo Switch can hold depends on the game sizes and the storage capacity of the console. The original Switch comes with 32GB of internal storage, while the Switch OLED model offers 64GB. However, both can be expanded with microSD cards.
Most Switch games range from 1GB to 15GB per game. So, with the original 32GB model, you could store anywhere from 2 to 30 games, depending on their sizes. With an external microSD card, you could store hundreds of games!
