Since I use SD cards and microSD cards on a number of things, most notably my 3DS and my Wii, I figured I would make a thread for it.
- 2 Terabyte SDXC Is The Current Largest MicroSD Card
- Up To 512GB For High Endurance MicroSD SanDisk Cards, Up To 256GB For Max Endurance MicroSD Sandisk Cards
I heard rumors of a 4 terabyte SD card being released at some point in 2025 or 2026, but if such even is true, it will be very expensive and not worth it. Hoping for the 2 terabyte microSD cards to go down from $200 each to $100 at some point. High endurance is way better than the regular microSDs, since they are (seemingly) built to last way longer. Even stranger, they're not much more than the regular ones, so unless you have very good reason not to, just go for high endurance. Whenever high endurance 2 terabyte cards are available for a reasonable price, such as $100 each, I will likely get several of them to use on the consoles I need to use them for. 3DS internal SD and flashcart will have 2TB, Wii + Wii U slots will have 2TB, and my Switch console would have a 2TB as well (or more likely, the Switch 2 will). Theoretically, SDUC cards can go up to 128TB, so if those are made anytime soon, such as in the 2030s, I'll likely use one for my phone. 2TB High or Max Endurance cards are wanted by me because they pretty much guarantee I won't ever need more storage again. If it is particularly durable, it would also be usable for playing Gamecube+Wii games off of it, meaning I'd only need an HDD for the Wii U games.
Yes, I acknowledge the ridiculous boot-times on a 3DS with 2TB of internal storage, along with the unnecessary amount of storage 2TB is for a Wii U SD card, even if you play Gamecube+Wii games off of it, but it is still cool. I can do it therefore I must, basically.
