PNY has its own Switch 2-ready microSD Express card, too
Cameron Faulkner Storage and component company PNY announced that its 128GB and 256GB microSD Express cards for Switch 2 are now shipping, costing $44.99 and $55.99, respectively. Its lineup brings the same PCIe 3.0 spec as the other microSD Express cards out there (blowing regular microSD cards out of the water when it comes to speed). Let's hope that PNY launches a 1TB model soon, because the Switch 2's 256GB of built-in storage can only carry a handful of AAA games. If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission.

Donkey Kong Bananza for the Switch 2 is $7 cheaper at Costco
Cameron Faulkner The Nintendo Switch 2 isn't even out yet (it's coming June 5th), and one of its launch window games already has a preorder discount at Costco. With a membership, you can get Donkey Kong Bananza — the first 3D platformer for this character since Donkey Kong 64 — for $62.99. A $7 discount may not seem like much to write home about, but it's notable given that Nintendo games rarely go on sale, and any discount in this economy is a win. Bananza launches on July 17th. Donkey Kong Bananza $7010% off $63 Other noteworthy deals If you're looking for a solid Bluetooth speaker that sounds and looks good, is waterproof, and won't break the bank, Bose has you covered. Specifically, Bose's eBay outlet is selling refurbished SoundLink Flex SE speakers in black for $69 (originally $129). The SoundLink Flex was crowned the best Bluetooth speaker under $200 in our buying guide. This discounted version differs only in that it lacks a microphone, which could be used for speakerphone functionality. Not a terrible feature to lose if it means saving around $80 off the cost of buying new. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is now available to preorder at Samsung ahead of its May 30th release date. The super-thin Android phone starts at $1,099.99 for the 256GB version, going up to $1,219.99 for the upgrade to 512GB of storage. As a bonus for preordering now, you'll get a $50 Samsung credit, a free storage upgrade (as in, the 512GB version will cost the same as the phone with 256GB), and boosted trade-in credit. Portable Apple Watch chargers are increasingly easy to find at somewhat affordable prices. A brand called Joyroom is selling one in black or white that's discounted to $15.99, down from its usual $19.99 once you select the 20 percent off coupon on the Amazon product page. It comes with 2,500mAh capacity and a built-in USB-C cable for recharging, and it can charge every Apple Watch in the lineup (from the Series 2 to the Series 10, plus the Apple Watch Ultra).
