As the game is "Cloud-Based," it doesn't take up much storage space on the Nintendo Switch. Because of this, Nintendo recommends that every buyer has a strong internet connection before purchasing the game.

Due to this game's size and graphic capabilities, we also recommend that only those with a strong internet connection consider purchasing it. This game is best purchased for a different console or service if you have a weak internet connection.
