如果您在控制台上下载了很多Nintendo Switch 游戏(Nintendo Switch games)，您很可能遇到了存储空间问题。Switch仅配备 32GB 的内部存储空间，仅下载几款游戏就会很快用完 。
如果你还没有为你的系统投资一张 SD 卡，它可以极大地升级你的 Switch 的存储，你将不得不求助于存档或删除游戏。您还可以删除任何游戏中的游戏保存数据以获得更多空间。
在本文中，您将了解如何存档游戏、删除游戏保存数据，以及如何将游戏卸载到 SD 卡上。
How to Archive/Delete Games
当您从Switch主屏幕存档游戏时，您真正要做的是将程序数据保存到云存储中，而不是控制台本身。您仍然可以稍后再次将其下载到您的Switch上。您也可以选择从主屏幕删除游戏，但这不会删除您的游戏进度数据。以下是存档或删除游戏的方法。
- 在Switch(Switch)主屏幕 上找到您要删除的游戏。
- 按控制器上的–或+按钮。
- 在弹出菜单上，转到管理软件(Manage Software)。
- 根据您要执行的操作， 选择存档软件(Archive Software)或删除软件。(Delete Software)
存档会将游戏的图标保留在主屏幕上，让您可以随时轻松地重新下载它。如果您选择从主屏幕删除游戏，则必须返回 eShop 重新下载游戏（不过，您不必再次购买。）
如果您希望 Switch 上有更多可用空间，您还可以从游戏中删除保存数据。
如何删除游戏保存数据(How to Delete Game Save Data)
存档或删除游戏应该可以释放大量空间，但如果您觉得不够，您也可以从这些游戏中删除保存数据。如果您认为自己暂时不会再次玩游戏并且不介意清除游戏进度，这可能是一个不错的选择。
- 从主屏幕转到设置(Settings)，它看起来像屏幕底部的齿轮图标。
- 转到Data Management > Delete Save Data.
- 选择要删除其保存数据的游戏。
- 选择(Choose)是要删除某个用户的存档数据，还是要删除所有游戏存档数据。
一旦游戏保存数据被删除，您将无法取回它。但是，您仍然可以重新下载游戏本身。
如何将游戏移至 SD 卡(How to Move Games to an SD Card)
如果您不想担心删除和重新下载游戏，最好的选择是获得一张 SD 卡(get an SD card)。有了这些，您最多可以有 2TB 的可用空间用于游戏，具体取决于您获得的卡。
一旦获得其中之一，您就可以将游戏保存到 SD 卡上，并可以随时访问它们，而无需等待游戏重新下载。确保(Make)SD 卡已插入Switch中，位于拉出式支架下方背面的端口中。
按照以下步骤将游戏移至 SD 卡。
- 从 Switch 主屏幕 打开设置。(Settings)
- 转到Data Management > Move Data Between Console/microSD Card。
- 选择移至 microSD 卡( Move to microSD Card)。
- 选择(Choose)要下载到 SD 卡的游戏。
- 选择移动数据(Move Data)。
插入 SD 卡后，您下载的任何游戏或软件都会自动下载到 SD 卡中。保存到内部存储的任何内容都将保留在那里，直到您移动它。
为什么删除游戏数据很有用(Why Deleting Game Data Can Be Useful)
除了能够在 Switch 上为其他游戏留出空间外，您可能还希望出于其他原因删除游戏程序或保存数据。在您的 Switch 上保留一些空间以进行更新总是一个好主意，因为系统和您可能拥有的游戏经常发布许多更新。
此外，如果您的 Switch 空间不足，则在为正在玩的游戏创建新的保存文件时会遇到麻烦。因此，如果您在没有SD 卡(an SD card)的情况下玩 Switch ，最好确保删除您不常玩的游戏，以便始终有足够的空间。
如果您打算购买比数字游戏更多的实体游戏，则可以不购买 SD 卡。但是，总体而言，获得一个是一个好主意，因为当您拥有一个时，您永远不必担心空间问题。
删除交换机上的数据(Deleting Data on the Switch)
如果您仔细遵循上述指南，您应该可以轻松删除游戏和游戏保存数据。无论如何，您也始终可以重新下载您之前从 eShop 购买的游戏。

How to Delete Game Save Data on Nintendo Switch
If you hаve a lot of Nintendo Switch games downloaded onto the console, it’s likely you’ve come across storage space issues. The Switch comes with only 32GB of internal storage, and downloading only a few games will quickly use that all up.
If you haven’t yet invested in an SD card for your system, which can immensely upgrade your Switch’s storage, you’ll have to resort to archiving or deleting games. You can also delete game save data in any game in order to get even more space.
In this article, you’ll find how you can archive games, delete game save data, as well as how to offload games onto your SD card.
How to Archive/Delete Games
When you archive a game off of your Switch home screen, what you’re really doing is saving the program data to cloud storage as opposed to the console itself. You’ll still be able to download it onto your Switch again later. You can also opt to delete a game from the home screen, though this won’t remove your game progress data. Here’s how to archive or delete games.
- Find the game you want to delete on your Switch home screen.
- Press the – or + button on your controller.
- On the pop up menu, go to Manage Software.
- Choose either Archive Software or Delete Software depending on what you want to do.
Archiving will keep the game’s icon on the home screen, giving you the option to easily re-download it at any time. If you choose to delete the game from your home screen, you’ll have to go back to the eShop to redownload the game (you won’t have to buy it again, though.)
If you want even more space available on your Switch, you can also delete the save data from the game.
How to Delete Game Save Data
Archiving or deleting a game should free up a lot of space, but if you find it’s not enough, you can also delete the save data from these games. This can be a good option if you don’t think you’ll play the game again for a while and don’t mind having your game progress erased.
- Go to the Settings from your home screen, which looks like a gear icon at the bottom of the screen.
- Go to Data Management > Delete Save Data.
- Choose the game you want to delete save data for.
- Choose whether you want to delete the save data from a certain user, or if you want to delete all the game save data.
Once the game save data is erased, you won’t be able to get it back. However, you can still re-download the game itself.
How to Move Games to an SD Card
If you don’t want to worry about deleting and redownloading games, the best option is to get an SD card. With these, you can have up to 2TB of space available for your games, depending on the card you get.
Once you get one of these, you’ll be able to save games onto the SD card and have access to them whenever you want, without having to wait for a game to redownload. Make sure the SD card is inserted into the Switch, in the port on the back underneath the pull-out stand.
Follow these steps to then move games to the SD card.
- Open the Settings from the Switch home screen.
- Go to Data Management > Move Data Between Console/microSD Card.
- Select Move to microSD Card.
- Choose which games you want to download to the SD card.
- Select Move Data.
Once you insert an SD card, any games or software you download from then on will be automatically downloaded to the card. Anything saved to the internal storage will stay there until you move it.
Why Deleting Game Data Can Be Useful
Besides being able to have space for other games on your Switch, you may also want to delete game programs or save data for other reasons. It’s always a good idea to keep some space open on your Switch for updates, as there are many updates released often for both the system and the games you may own.
Also if you run out of space on your Switch, you’ll run into trouble when creating new save files for games you are playing. So, if you’re playing your Switch without an SD card, it’s a good idea to make sure you remove games you tend not to play as much so you always have enough space.
If you plan on buying more physical games than digital, it may be okay to go without getting an SD card. However, getting one is a good idea in general because you’ll never have to worry about space when you have one.
Deleting Data on the Switch
If you follow the guide above carefully, you should have no problem removing games and game save data carefully. No matter what, you’ll also always be able to re-download games you’ve bought previously from the eShop.
