Prior to the launch date I moved out and purchased a 256GB MicroSD card specifically to store game and user data. I just found out today you are only able to move screen shots and not game/user data. Not to mention Zelda is downloaded directly to internal storage and not the SD Card. Here is what I would like to see in the upcoming system upgrade:
The Nintendo Switch launches tomorrow with support for expandable storage via a microSD card slot, but that support is pretty limited, as we discovered after applying the console’s day-one.
Move Save data to Mirco SD
Be able to download games directly to Mirco SD by passing the 32 GB internal storage.
Be able to run games directly from the Micro SD card
Do not remove the ability to save screenshots to Micro SD.
Update the GUI interface to add the ability to move data between the SD and internal storage.
Provide a warning when storage is low on the internal and external drives
7 Allow game/ system updates to be downloaded to the SD Card. Once the update has been completed provide the user with a clean up tool to remove the update files to save space.
Any additional ideas would be greatly appreciated!
