HIKSEMI microSD Express Cards on Sale
Taurus Co., Ltd., located in Adachi, Tokyo, has announced a limited-time sale of
HIKSEMI microSD Express Cards designed specifically for the
Nintendo Switch 2. Available on
Amazon.co.jp, these cards come in two capacities:
512GB priced at ¥17,222 (including tax) and
1TB at ¥36,980 (including tax) as of July 30, 2026. These are promotional rates, and potential buyers are urged to act quickly as prices will be adjusted once existing stock is exhausted.
Why Upgrade Your Storage This Summer
The summer holiday is an excellent time for gamers to reassess their storage needs. With more time available for gaming, players often download new titles and additional content, making it essential to ensure ample storage space. The
512GB variant is perfect for those who prefer to play select titles, while the
1TB option is ideal for users wishing to store multiple large games without the hassle of swapping. Given the limited nature of the current inventory, early consideration for purchase is encouraged before the forthcoming price adjustment.
Pricing Changes After Current Stock
As confirmed by Taurus, both the
512GB and
1TB models currently display as
in stock on Amazon. Once the existing stock runs out, the pricing will be revised systematically. The timing of this adjustment may vary based on inventory levels and could happen without prior notice, so potential buyers should take note of this.
