what size sd is recommended for an emunand?

It's going to be the first thing I do when the update comes out and right now I have a 32 gig sd

I had a 32 GB before and I can only store 6-7 games with emuand. It depends on how many games you want to store in the SD card. I switch to 128GB and I have problem filling it. I have about 15 games on it and I only play Diablo and octopath. :)

I have a 200GB and it's almost full. But keep in mind that I have a lot of movies and TV shows on that card. And I play multiple games at the same time (like 2 puzzle games, 1 rpg, 1 fighting, 1 horror game and whatever) and also keep any multiplayer game on there indefinitely just in case I hang out with friends.

It really depends on how many games you want to have with you.

I usually only play like one game at a time, i was more concerned with the size of an emunand, I thought they were almost 32 gigs alone.

Add together the size of your backups you want on the sd card.

Select an sd card with capacity greater than your backups require.
but how large does an emunand run? I never got the chance to even make one as I updated before I got my SX pro. I was looking at either a 64 or 128, prob the 128 since its only a couple bucks more. You just leave the emunand on the sd correct? thats what youll run the backups off?

Hi! Another question :D
Does the size of the emunand have to be of the whole SD card if I want it exclusively to put backups? I have a 200 GB to play with my backup copies and I have another 64 GB card which is what I would use for the Sysnand.

I thought that with a copy of 32 GB of Nand the rest did not matter.

tHANKS!
