Micro SD, and MicroSD Express are two different standards. mSDe cards are typically backwards compatible with non-Express devices, but they operate at slower UHS-1 speeds. You'll get better performance with Micro-SD devices with a high quality A2 / UHS-2 card like a Samsung Pro series. (If the device supports A2 / UHS-2)

Express devices like the Switch 2 can only use mSDe cards like this one, and are not backwards compatible with MicroSD cards. The Switch 2 is the best known device to use mSDe cards, so usually the cards are marketed in some way for that. MicroSD Express is a PCI-E standard that supports speeds near 1000MB/s, while MicroSD typically tops out around 180MB/s.

The Switch 1 will be able to use this card, but is limited to UHS-1 speeds. (~100MB/s)

Is this just as good as the Samsung P9 deal during Prime Day?

Why is this card specific for NS2? Is there any microsd storage size restriction on Nintendo switch 1 that makes it incompatible?

You'll get better performance with Micro-SD devices with a high quality A2 / UHS-2 card like a Samsung Pro series. (If the device supports A2 / UHS-2)

Nothing says being above human cattle like combing through comments on a retail deal site and combining the misery of the consumer side of retail, the cynicism of reddit, and wit of a Facebook comments section.
