There are countless Switch case options on the market these days, with a number of different companies stepping up to create their own console-protecting bags and pouches, and this new design is following that trend in style.
The Séfu Switch Bag has a minimalistic design that focuses on protection, accessibility, and quality materials, all while being just the right size to carry your Switch and a few daily essentials. The centre divide can hold 12 game cartridges, as well as protect your screen, and can also be removed entirely to allow for bigger things like a camera.
The bag's designers have just launched a Kickstarter campaign to secure funding, with three different designs available to choose from. If you're quick (and we mean really quick), you might just be able to get in on the early bird deals to save money. These are going incredibly fast, however.
You can see the options and pricing below and can check out the product's full Kickstarter page for lots more information if you're interested.
The bags are all scheduled to be sent to backers by November or before and the Kickstarter project still has 29 days to go. At the time of writing, the campaign needs another £9,000 to come to life.
Do you like the look of this? Are you in the market for a Switch carry case? Let us know if this suits your style with a comment below.

Yes finally someone made a bag i can carry around my shoulder. This is exactly what need.
I don't like these bulky all-in-one bags like this. I always just put my handhelds in a simple protective case just for the console and throw it in a backpack full of other stuff I want with me.
I would have to wonder who would want to spend $120 - $180 on a travel case for their Switch anyways. I just bought a $140 400GB memory card for my Switch and I think that was a far better use of that kind of money. I got an Amazon hard plastic travel case for my Switch that I only paid about $5 for and it seems to do a great job of protecting my Switch while it's in my backpack.
The pricing just seems way too high for these, I can understand how leather can have a premium but I bought a really nice leather case for my 3DS and I only paid about $40 for it. I really don't see how they are going to charge $50 and $65 for simple cloth cases.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦♂
I'll just stick to a case and a normal bag...this seems like a waste of money.
So muggable.
Oh wow, thank you for the coverage @Nintendolife!!! So thrilled to be here!
Hello @JayJ
I didn't design it to be bulky, it's not really an all in one, just enough for your switch and your wallet, phone, and keys (or a bit more if you really want). You know, just the stuff that I personally bring with me every day. I know it's not for everyone though. Thanks for your feedback!
Nah ,I'll stick with my Waterfield Bag - it's perfect
Um...
This is my bag, i mean... a woman shoulder bag Anello to bring my Switch on the go.
I’m taking to Kickstarter:
45709 merchandise!
@Anti-Matter those joy cons look amazing, are they official?
I prefer smaller cases to protect my Switch and then putting that in a backpack. These look nice, but they are not for me. Plus I'd rather have a handle on top of the bag instead of a strap. Or better yet have both options. Specially for the deluxe model...
@code45709
Oh, actually it was Neon Red Joy Cons before i swapped with White Shell replacement, bought from Ebay.
@Anti-Matter cool, I really like them. Think I’ll have a look myself
@Brandles
"I prefer smaller cases to protect my Switch and then putting that in a backpack."
Same !
I did it too for my Switch & New 3DS XL.
I put my handhelds inside the small bag and then i put the small bag into backpack.
I’ve gone for middle priced one. I like it.
@Sefu just backed it mate. Love it. Gone for middle price one just coz I actually prefer the look of that material. Hope you reach all the goals.
Good luck
I got this case https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N357OCG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 was one of the ones suggested by nintendolife actually when switch launched, I had to wait around a month after launch to get it since the black one launched later. I love the look and it's been a great case for me with the little handle making it easy to carry around in hand if need be. Also holds up to like 10 games with the case things they give you and I have ear buds and USB C cable in the mesh pouch in the middle. I don't mind the idea on this carrying case, but the price is a bit much for what I would want to spend on my carrying case.
This just looks like a copy of the Waterfield cases:

@Sefu Well good luck, looks like a nicely made product so I am sure there is a market out there for it. Seems more useful to me as a lifestyle bag, but I rarely seem to be in a situation where I want to be taking my Switch around with me everywhere I go. It's usually just something I take with me on trips for downtime and travel.
Hey, they featured ARMS in the pictures! They have good taste.
@Sefu Looks like a quality product and a nice marketing campaign you got going Good luck!
If I want an all-in-one can, I'll get this PowerA messenger bag
http://a.co/cRnrC6b
i think i can find a better bag.
If all you're really bringing is your switch, this is nice.
I really like the cartridge pockets.
@Anti-Matter Did we just become best friends!?
Sefu sounds a lot like a Japanese person pronouncing "safe"... awesome
@Sefu I've backed for the Standard Case. I've had issues with Kickstarter projects in the past not delivering so I'm putting my trust in you. Certainly looks more promising though!
As for the product itself, I love the functionality of it. I take trips into town to go to the cinema very often and only need keys, my phone (which is too big for my pocket) and blood testing kit for my Diabetes. This will be encouraging to take my Switch on the go more often, as I very rarely do.
Question: Who actually brings their Switch everywhere with them? If say, I’m going out with the family and we’re going into town, I’m more inclined to bring much DS as much less tears would be shed if it was stolen. I bring my Switch on long car rides and vacations, but in terms of always having a system with me, I’d prefer my DS.
The smaller the better for me. Have the official Nintendo one and it’s perfect...if you throw the screen protector into the bin and buy a decent tempered glass one, that is.
@Sefu Thanks for the awesome design. I'm in for the vintage leather. Gorgeous and so nicely organized! <3
Dude in the middle picture has my exact headphones. Made me smile. x3
I already got a WaterField Arcade bag. But might be interested if I ever get another Switch for the kids
I read "waifu bag"...
... and feel let down
@SuperC142 The removable center divider with built-in game storage is a big step-up, IMHO, and I prefer the look of these bags as compared to the Waterfield cases, especially the option of a full-leather exterior. It just looks classier (less rugged) to me.
@tux_peng Completely different kind of case. The one you linked is a much bigger messenger bag.
@Sefu Hello, can you fit a pro controller in the case with the Switch?
Edit, seen the pictures on the Website
nah!
@kirbygirl I agree with everything you said. I went for the middle one though as for everyday it’ll fit with my look a bit more.
Looks really nice, but that's way out of my budget. I'm fine with what I have.
@ReggieFils-Aime I do! I kinda retired my 3DS after I got my Switch. I do still play it, but the Switch is what I love to bring with me everywhere. Being able to play what I want, where I want, with who I want sounds like a marketing gimmick, but I find myself surprised by how true it is.
I do understand what you mean though. I’d be a lot less sad if someone stole my 3DS. (Heck, a while back, someone actually did! 😂 We found it though)
"Yes, a purse. I carry a purse!"
@MH4 @Wanjia
Huh, maybe it’s just me. I love my Switch, don’t get me wrong, but I just don’t love always having it with me. I may also be more hesitant due to how long I saved for the Switch (I’m a teen). Also my DS library may have something to do with it, as it was pitiful until I went to a used media store and got Final Fantasy III. My friend @Tingle_The_Great also let me borrow Super Mario 64 DS. These got me back into my DS and I’m looking to expand my collection with other DS games and GBA games.
@ReggieFils-Aime
"Question: Who actually brings their Switch everywhere with them?"
Me !
I oftenly bring my Switch everywhere, usually at the mall.
Sometimes i bring my New 3DS XL, sometimes i bring BOTH of my Switch & New 3DS XL.
I store them inside my small bag and then i put them into my backpack.
Note: I had finished Final Fantasy III NDS long time ago.
@Anti-Matter
Cool! Sounds like a good place to store them.
@ReggieFils-Aime I’m a teen as well, and I also had to save up for mine, so I completely understand what you mean! I didn’t bring mine anywhere until I bought a case for it.
@MH4
Yeah I have a case for it, for some reason I just have a problem with it. I’ll give it another shot though.
if I was going to spend that I would get SF Bags they look much better
I feel like a 120 leather Switch shoulder bag is the avocado toast of gaming accessories... Someone on Fox News will hear about this and do a segment on why this is the reason Millennials are human trash and the source of all bad things in the universe.
@Anti-Matter Your switch looks bomb! Gimme
Or you buy a very nice case from GameStop with very similar features for $19.99.
@ImagineerNik you won't be disappointed!
@kirbygirl The Vintage is the same as my personal Switch Bag ^^
Why are there so many comments saying it’s not for them? Then obviously it’s not for you.... move along.
This seems like a great product but all the comments about how they either wouldn’t waste money(aka can’t afford), prefer a cheap case, or buy [insert case here] instead, are disheartening. If you can’t say something nice move along sirs.
@dougphisig Got the same without any character featured, just black and some red highlights.

Kickscammer: give your money and get something in return... maybe. There is no guarantee.
@Rhaoulos that's always the risk. I'm putting my personal and professional reputation on the line though. We're fighting as hard as possible to deliver something special to our Backers. We're trying to build long-term fans of Séfu, not a quick profit.
@Sefu
Well, best of luck.
But in using Kickstarter you are amongst countless unfinished project, scammers and projects that were completed several years late.
I'd rather give my money to charity, at least I know I am giving it away without expecting anything in return. This is not against you but Kickstarter T&C that clearly states that a backer will never get his money back and there is no obligation for kickscammer thiefs to deliver anything.
@Rhaoulos Sure, there are some risks, but I've had almost entirely positive experiences as a backer over the years. There are a lot of great creative projects/products that wouldn't be possible without KS or similar sites.
