Comment on Is the Switch 2 a waste of money?

Define worth it for you.
The hardware is a great upgrade. And I don’t mean the insides, that seems fine. I mean the changed joycon slotting, the build quality, the stand.
I’d never go back to the first one in general. But. The EX SD cards are still expensive, sizes I’d need are not there and especially if most things are key cards you’d need more storage!
So being a nerd I still have (multiple of) switch 1, not replaced by switch 2. But I find both good, the rails on 1 suck (because of plastic blocker on the joycon thst wears off), both still have non echo thumbsticks so go for 8bitdo controllers but in general the switch 2 is a nice upgrade.
So if you want a switch go for the 2 imo.

Is the Switch 2 unable to use standard microSD cards? They make you buy some proprietary card?

First off no, it’s not proprietary. Express SD cards are finally a speedy standard. But since they’re new they’re not available in many sizes and also expensive.
Nintendo explicitly states that for the switch 2, microSD EX(PRESS) is required.
