Can I use this SD card on the Switch?
https://www.fruugonorge.com/micro-s...ra-minnekort/p-86400743-180173798?language=no
Want to buy me a new SD card and use SD cards that are in Switch to 3DS.

A SanDisk 1TB is a perfectly acceptable card for the Switch. No issues, as long as it fits your budget it definitely fits your Switch.

E: doing the conversion rate…that seems suspiciously cheap. Might want to compare it to a well known seller.

$27.16 is way too cheap!

if I assume the comma isn’t relevant then $2716.92 is way to expensive…either way, something is off about this card.

for comparison: https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Ultra-MicroSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B08HCPTMJG/

It isn't.

Based on the listing it says unbranded, also that price is really suspicious, 279 NOK is about $27.34/~27ish euro so that is really suspicious.

I have buy myself a card but not fake one.
You don’t want to be cheap on your sd card. It doesn’t pay off in the long run.

Buy from a reputable dealer. i buy San Disk from Amazon and have had zero issues.

I know but I buy myself a 512 SD card and it's not fake one.
Please test with h2testw to be sure. There are many shady vendors who relabel smaller cards to show a fake higher capacity. You will loose data of anything beyond the actual capacity but they will work for small data sets.

on the other hand, if you found their 512G card to be working great for you then there is no reason to ask us what we think about their 1TB card. You are more expert than us about this vendor, it appears. Good luck! :-)

I could buy 1TB one but it was more expensive than 512 GB card.

So why would a 1TB cost 279 Nok, and 512GB cost 799 Nok, so you should asks yourself that , that is enough to throw a red flag that the first link you share priced at 279 nok is fake/bootleg it cost 239 usd here not 27 ish usd if I convert 279 Nok to usd.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.

    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
