Nintendo has confirmed some of its sizes of Switch games and, fortunately, they are relatively petite.
Japanese my Nintendo store mentions a number of Switch 2 games along with their files.
Nintendo Switch 2 has 256 GB of internal memory, which is a significant 32 GB update available on the OG and Switch Lite switch and 64 GB in the Switch -led model.
Another substantial difference is that Switch 2 requires microSD express cards for a maximum of 2 TB of additional memory, which means that microSDXC cards support current switch models cannot move to the fresh console.
However, based on the sizes of files revealed in the Japanese store, 256 GB of internal memory should keep most players for a while.
Nintendo Switch 2 game memory size:
The biggest file size is, as you can expect, Mario Kart World, but at 23.4 GB it only occupies about 10% of the total internal memory of Switch 2.
Mario Kart World is relatively slim compared to a forceful cyberpunk 2077, which weighs 64 GB on Nintendo Switch 2. It’s a chunky 25% internal memory of Switch 2.
Nintendo also recently confirmed that several fresh ones Switch 2 game cards will not always wear a real gameBut instead, contain the key to downloading the game. However, this is not in the case of Cyberpunk 2077.
In the context, one of the largest games on the original switch, Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, was only 16 GB.
It is worth noting that the size of the Gamecube application is growing as fresh games are added to the library. During the premiere, the Gamecube application contains the legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, F-Zero GX and Soulcalibur 2.
How can Nintendo Switch 2 escape relatively petite games, offering 4K resolution?
In January, the internet was noticed by the Nintendo patent, submitted in July 2023, but published for the first time at the beginning of this year, which described the technology of withdrawing the image of AI This would assist to keep the size of video downloads petite enough to fit on a physical game cassette, offering up to 4K textures. At that time, it was considered that this was applied to Nintendo Switch 2 and could refer to NVIDIA DLSS graphic technology.
NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is AI powered technology that uses machine learning for exclusive images with lower resolution in real time, increasing both performance and image quality in games.
This week, after Nintendo Direct, Nintendo and Nvidia, they confirmed that the non -standard GPU Switch 2 processor allows AI growth via DLSS and Ray Training.
Nvidia described this as a “NVIDIA NVIDIA NVIDIA processor with dedicated RT cores and tensor cores for stunning visualizations and improvements based on AI.”
These updates include the game up to 4K in television mode and up to 120 fps at 1080p in portable mode. Nintendo Switch 2 also supports HDR and AI Upscaling “to sharpen visualization and smooth gameplay”.
The fresh RT cores bring tracking of the radius in real time, providing “realistic lighting, reflections and shadows for more addictive worlds,” Nvidia continued.
Meanwhile, tensor cores supply AI functions, such as DLSS, “increasing resolution for sharper details without devoting image quality”.
However, the details are slim on earth. This week, a round table -oriented table in New York participated in IGN, Nintendo representatives have confirmed that switch 2 uses DLSSBut I did not specify which version of the technology or whether it was adapted to Switch 2. It was a similarly vague answer when Nintendo confirmed that GPU Switch 2 is able to track radiation.
What about the GPU itself? Tetsuya Sasaki, general director in the Nintendo technology development department and the senior director in the technology development department, have exchanged to say that Nintendo prefers not to get to weeds such as GPU.
“Nintendo does not provide much in the hardware specification,” he said. “We really like to focus, it is a value that we can provide to our consumers. But I believe that our partner Nvidia will share some information.”
