Gaming Game save data after uninstall

[TechnicR]

Hello everyone!

Does the Switch store my games saved data on the NAND or on thr SD card Wll it stay after I remove it?

I was playing Zelda and other games from Card. But swapping them (and carrying them around) is pretty uncomfortable. Is it possible to install them on the SD card and use the same save data? Or does the Switch make a difference between an installed and a Cartilage game?

Save data is stored on the NAND, and yes it stays if you uninstall the game or whatever. It stays unless you specifically delete the save data from system settings (or devmenu).

Yes it will use the same save game. The only time it wouldn't is if you use a copy of the game from a different region with a different titleid, but most games (like Zelda) are the same for all, or all western, regions.
