Mini SSD cards aim to provide fast storage solutions for portable gaming systems, allowing for games to load at speeds similar to internal SSDs while avoiding the need for hardware modifications. Between 2012 and 2023, game sizes have increased at an average annual rate of approximately 6.3GB, with numerous titles exceeding 100GB. This growth is attributed partly to enhanced graphics and textures for high-resolution displays, but also significantly influenced by the increase in narrative and cinematic content that requires large audio files and localization support.
