Switch performs better running games through an emulator emulating the switch than natively. (streamable.com)

Is it possible that the native card reader is slower than the usb-c one ? Maybe a bus bandwidth issue ?

I would assume the cart slot is directly connected to the bus and should be faster than going through the USB port, but that's just a wild guess since I don't know enough about hardware let alone the specifics of the Switch's.

The card reader isn't super fast actually, but most games for the switch don't rely on storage throughput (few heavy assets, etc).
