Every video game console needs ample storage, and the Switch 2 comes equipped with 256GB of onboard memory. However, to expand this further, you'll need a microSD Express card. Since these cards were rare before the Switch 2's release, they're in high demand. To meet this need, Samsung and Nintendo have collaborated to create a special Mario-themed microSD Express card, available in a 256GB size at launch.

The primary input device for the Nintendo Switch 2 is the Joy-Con 2 controllers. While the Switch 2 is compatible with original Switch Joy-Cons, they're not the optimal choice. The original controllers can't wake the Switch 2 from sleep mode, nor can they attach for handheld play. The new Joy-Con 2, on the other hand, comes with innovative features such as mouse functionality, a team chat button, and a magnetic attachment mechanism.

Should you need to replace one of the Joy-Con 2 that come with your Switch 2, you can purchase the left or right controller individually.

While Joy-Cons are great for handheld mode, when playing on a TV, the Switch 2 Pro Controller is the go-to choice. It's similar to the original Switch Pro Controller but with the added ability to wake the Switch 2 from sleep mode and a GameChat button, mirroring the functionality of the Joy-Con 2. Plus, it charges in half the time, making it a convenient choice.

For those planning to play Switch 2 online with friends, consider adding the Switch 2 camera to your setup.
