The Nintendo Switch 2 is advertised as having 256GB of internal storage, but how much of that is actually usable storage? Well, it turns out that you’ll actually have 249GB of available storage for your games. This is because the Nintendo Switch 2 operating system takes up 6GB. This is the same as any electrical device you purchase such as a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S as there’s always reserved space for the OS.
