All game saves for Switch are directly stored on the console. Saves can’t be recorded on a microSD card, and it seems that they can’t be transferred in any way – at least for now. So if you were to purchase a new Switch for whatever reason, your saves will be stuck on the original device.

As for downloading games and taking screenshots, these can be moved freely between the system and microSD card. This can be accomplished in the Data Management menu.

Wii U and 3DS demos both impose play limits. For most of these downloads, you can only play them a certain amount of times before they become locked and are inaccessible. Most limits are at around thirty, but some are much lower.

Thankfully, with Switch, play limits are gone. Demos for the likes of Snipperclips, Dragon Quest Heroes I-II, and Puyo Puyo Tetris allow you to load them up as many times as you please. It’s certainly a change that will sit well with Switch owners.

The newest issue of Jump is starting to make the rounds in Japan. Inside the magazine, Square Enix shows a bit more of Dragon Quest XI with the introduction of two characters.

Jump has overviews of both Veronica and Senya. Their bios are below, courtesy of Gematsu.

Veronica – A Prodigy that Knows No Fear

“Don’t treat me like a child!”

From the look of her, she is a strong-willed girl. In the opening movie, there are scenes of her unleashing attack spells.

Senya – A Beautiful Harp Girl with a Relaxing Presence

“I will help everyone with a recovery spell.”

A girl with a neat and clean atmosphere. In the opening movie, there is a scene where she is playing the harp.

Update: Few more photos:

Original: Remember when Reggie said that Switch wouldn’t use Friend Codes? Unfortunately, it seems that was incorrect.

Now that people are starting to download Switch’s first update, we’ve learned that Friend Codes are indeed a part of the system. You can search for other Switch owners using their Friend Code.

Don’t be entirely disappointed though. Switch does let you search for users nearby to add, and you can also search for those you’ve played with. It appears that Switch will also offer you friend suggestions based on who you’ve connected with previously in other Nintendo titles – such as the mobile release Super Mario Run.
