I can’t believe that Nintendo charges $40 for their Switch 2 case and it doesn’t even have a handle? How did that happen? Who thought it was a good idea to make a travel case for a $500 piece of electronics that you have to carry around like a book? Back it goes.

Now, my set up is complete.

You don't worry about your Series X overheating?

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Yeah, especially with literally zero reason to have the Switch 1 in that set-up any more -- and directly covering the XSX vent.

I ordered this one from Best Buy and should be available tomorrow. I had the same case with my Switch and really liked it.

Have that same case for my Switch 1 as well as the bigger one that held the dock, pro controller, cables etc. It was really nice for the one time I went on an actual vacation in Mexico as I was able to take my whole setup with me conveniently.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

i plan on still using SW1 from time to time to play some of my games. and it doesn't cover up the vent. there is space in-between and i dust there every day.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Just curious : Why play on the Switch when every one of those games (presumably) will play better on the Switch 2?

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

honestly, I don't know. It is set up and what not. If I definitely don't play it in the future it will be gone. I don't need a paper weight right there.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Oh does the switch 2 not fit in a switch 1 case? I wonder if it's finally time to retire that zelda case I got around launch...

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

how could it? it is bigger than SW1.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Ah I guess I didn't expect it to be that much bigger than an OLED, which fits in my slightly oversized case. Ah well, new accessories (or babying it and keeping it in the house) it is then.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

They just want your money, that's why we have to start from scratch (getting accessories) with the new console, unfortunately.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I wouldn't say from scratch. The old controllers and games work with the Switch 2, that's rather significant.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Same, and like Decker, I’m also returning my official Nintendo case.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

It’s okay. HE HAS CREDIT!!!

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Plus it’s 1/2 the price of the Nintendo one too.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

if anyone needs an express card (512), I have one for sale in video game exchange forum.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

Yeah, I was going to get it originally but it wasn't available. So I decided to get the official one and I bring it home and look at the reviews and hear Decker's take and I'm like son of a....

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

It's funny, the device itself is well designed and built, the software, virtual cards, sd express support are well done. The stuff around it though - drift vulnerable controllers, the packaging, the accessories, etc all seem half assed.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

I wouldn't call anything about the Pro Controller 2 half-assed. It's phenomenal

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

True, the Pro is quite good.

re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
 

It is good, but I don’t for the life of me understand why they ditched the fantastic grips of the Switch 1 pro controller and made this one with no texture whatsoever on them, just smooth as a babies bottom.
