Unleash the Ultimate Gaming Experience: Switch 2’s Massive Gaming Case Revolution
The Bigger the Better? Nintendo’s Switch 2 Game Cases might Leave You Scratching Your Head
When Switch cases first arrived on the scene in 2017, they looked comically oversized. The SD cards the games were installed on were tiny, while the plastic surrounding them was exponentially bigger. Most cases didn’t even come with anything else inside. I’ve enjoyed collecting them, but they were a huge waste. According to a new leak, the Switch 2 cases might be even worse.
What’s the Big Deal?
A new leak revealed that everything about the Switch 2 is, well, bigger. Bigger Joy-Con controllers, bigger screens, and even bigger Mario Kart races. And it seems that the game cases might be bigger too. French retailer FNAC accidentally leaked the dimensions for a Take-Two Switch 2 game, measuring 5.12 inches wide and 7.7 inches tall.
Theories Abound
If these dimensions are accurate, it’s hard not to wonder what Nintendo has in store for us. Are they planning to fill those extra inches with maps, posters, and other goodies? Or is this just a ploy to reduce confusion between Switch 1 and Switch 2 games? One thing’s for sure – bigger cases mean more space to cram in extra goodies. But with SD cartridges similar in size to the existing ones, it’s hard to see what all the extra space is for.
A Blast from the Past
I still remember buying my original Switch on launch day, excitedly opening up games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+. The results? Empty cases with tiny SD cards inside. The latter, however, came with stickers and a beautiful little booklet, making it feel complete. My obsession with buying games physically was rewarded.
The Verdict?
As the new Switch 2 cases loom on the horizon, one thing’s for certain – they’ll be bigger. But the question remains, what’s the point of all that extra space? Will Nintendo use it to fill with extra goodies, or will it be a disappointment similar to the original cases? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure – the wait is going to be a long one!
