Nintendo Gives Us A Closer Look At Switch 2's "All-In-One" Carrying Case

I feel like bags like this make you a prime target to get robbed.

I hope I can snag one of these on release day despite not having preordered it.

I've watched this video multiple times. I'm way too excited for the release of this console, feels almost like an ASMR experience.

I do like the flap that comes down and fits snuggly inside the top lip of the dock.

Isn't this $80-90? I'd rather get a higher quality case for half of the price

The bag is too expensive and I never travel with my dock. I bought the standard case and even that is sold for $40 vs $20 for Switch 1 case.

Does anyone know if those dockless 60W GaN plugs will work with the switch 2.

Seems like a sleek & decent case functionally, however way too expensive for my liking. I’ll probably just get a cheaper Amazon equivalent eventually.

Also… I don’t see myself taking the dock anywhere unless I had a spare at some point.

Also also… curious if in lieu of the dock, the Switch 2 camera could fit in there.. not that I plan to buy it, but still just curious. I’m sure there will be other future peripherals of interest (Foldable Light Gun?, Vitality Sensor?, DS 2nd Screen Attachment?) that hopefully could also still fit down the line for that premium “all-in-one” price.

$89.99.

Dear god.

As someone else said, I’ll wait for the Amazon knockoffs to spring up. That price is ludicrous.

Damn, that's a beaut!

@dskatter

Lol i checked the price and said the same thing. I rarely travel with my dock, so I just ordered a third party switch 2 case with screen protector.

Back in my day, my pocket was my handheld's carry case.

When I see “travel case”, I think taking it on a plane. This would absolutely not be a plane-friendly case. It would count as its own carry-on/personal item in itself.
Would much rather the style case the switch lite has with the clamshell design so I can just toss it into my backpack.

It’s a nice case but I’m not the target market for it and that’s fine by me.

@Abeedo I use them for storage and moving. Makes it easy to store systems and not have to look for cables (or keep a bunch of boxes for decades.)

Just wait a bit for cheaper third party options. This is expensive in my opinion

Absolutely ridiculously expensive, and it doesn't even have a fun design!

I'll just stick with my existing cases, thanks.

I don't see why anyone would want this thing, unless they travel a lot. Like others say a amazon knock off will come quick enough lol

@VeganHerpes Docks for the Switch 1 will not work with the Switch 2. Which makes sense seeing as the Switch 2 is a stronger console.

Definitely not for me, I dont remember ever taking my switch out of the house. I may take this one to work because of the game share option but other than that I believe it will just be plugged into my tv

any word on dimensions?

Nah, I'm good mate

No, thanks.
My current hand bag still usable to carry my handhelds.

Good case, if you want/need to take everything with you, but to expensive.

At that price. No thanks. I'll stick with my OG Switch branded backpack, which holds all of the above plus much more.

I see this as perfect option for rental places. Oh wait we would need rental stores again. 😬

Storage case for sure, but definitely don’t advertise your belongings if traveling beyond your local area

@Pigeon It still is for my PS Vita.

Don’t plan on travelling anywhere with my Switch 2, plus it's way overpriced, you’d be able to get a third party one that’s just as good if not better if you leave it a while, for much less without the branding.

Nintendough … a lot of dough for the manufactorer.

so the non-recording nintendo today app didn't change anything, as aspected..

As spiffy as this is, it’s way out of my price range. I’d rather get a Pro Controller 2 or a pair of Joy-Con 2s for that kind of pricing.

I plan to get the same kind of traveling case I have for my Switch 1. Never had a problem with that, and it was a lot cheaper!

It’s like Nintendo just knew I had a massive pile of $80 bills sitting around with nothing to do. Spooky!

I mean the whole idea for Switch is being hybrid where you can play on the TV when you're at your home and playing portable anywhere else!!

I know that you might be on vacation or staying in a hotel but I guess you won't have that much time in your vacation to bother yourself with plugging the Switch to another TV for just few days.

That’s a chunky box for a portable console. You could hide a GameCube in there.

Does the case carry itself for that price? It's a great looking case and I might end up buying one for when we go on vacation but not for that price. I'll wait for the cheap knock offs.

I mean... I guess it's only the price of a Switch 2 game? Yay?

This would be ideal for the once-a-year trip up to my non-Switch-owning mate’s for Mario Kart/Mario Party fun, but it needs to be half the price. A second pro controller/two spare Joycons feels much more of a priority!

As someone who wants to travel, I'd rather just have a smaller, slimmer one that fits in a backpack.

@AceTrainerBloke Which is also available

@sanderev Did see that actually.
I know it only holds 6 game cards but I'd rather have a few that are held securely rather than 15 which are loose.

These accessories prices are getting way out of hand. It’s like Nintendo became the Apple of the game industry, where you pay extra just for the brand.

Difficult to say from the photos, but it looks to me like Nintendo finally improved their quality game. Both the console and accessories look like the build quality is actually decent, which was missing from Nintendo for years.

@AceTrainerBloke For Switch 1 have this case https://www.rdsgaming.com/nns40g and I hope they will make Switch 2 cases as well. (officially licensed) I also have a seperate case for all my gamecarts, which holds up to 80 games.

(however on Switch 2 I will go all download purchases, so no carts necessary for me - or maybe just one for MicroSD Ex carts)

@NintendoWife
With dock, hdmi-cable, power adapter and maybe a second controller Switch 2 is a fully fledged home console. But still rather small. 🤷‍♂️

I have the Deluxe System Case for the Switch 1, which is a similar case that fits all the accessories + a Pro Controller. That one cost 39 euros and it's licensed by Nintendo, so not a cheap Amazon knockoff. I don't really get how a Switch 2 equivalent of it could cost twice as much? (I mean, I do actually get it, it's capitalism, but that's still a ridiculous price difference.)

Crazy price for a useless gadget. Even I bought a 3rd party "all-in-one" carrying case for my OLED for less than 15€ in a local shop here and, despite being perfect, I ended up on never using it.

If you really really need something like this, just wait for 3rd party ones. You don't need Nintendo's officially approval, manufacturers do just for the sake of not getting annoyed by Nintendo as it happened to Genki.

Meanwhile, on the Genki website you can spot gadgets compatible to "Glitch" and "Glitch 2" LOL

My Switch fitted into a neoprene wine-bottle holder - perfect for travelling!! I’m hoping I find something similar for the 2witch

Perfect for if someone wants to rob you they know they'll get a Switch 2 to resell.

I'm really a bit concerned about Nintendos new politics on pricing.
Beginning with the console price - which is semi OKisch but just a bit over the top considering Switch 2 is just "more of the same" but with a worse display. And JoyCon mouse controls are nothing I'm convinced of.
The new price tag for games is completely over the top if you ask me.
And now accessories with double the price of what they're worth...
All in all for me this will just end in buying lot less of... everything in comparison to Swich 1. I wouldn't be surprised if this price politics will end up in a smaller desaster for Nintendo.

An all-in-one case would probably be great for me since I realised pretty much the only times I travel with the switch are when I take it to a mate's place, along with an extra controller and usually the dock too if they don't have one. Having an easy to transport home console is awesome for local play.

This official one seems crazy overpriced tho even outside of the US. There's already a Powerwave all-in-one case coming out on launch day for almost a third of the price that looks functionally identical.

I never understand the “I don’t take my Switch anywhere and I only play it docked” people. Mine goes everywhere with me.

@illmatic20xx Thet case is about the price of a switch 1 dock bought separately was. Blows my mind.

@spiderman0616 I am happy to be one of those you do not comprehend!

Christ that's a chonker. My PC has a better carry case than this!

@Michael0916 Yeah I know, all good. I could do without Pro Controller and grip, would already result in a box 2/3 of the size.

@KociolekDoSyta me too, I love that console!

For $85 it should at least be GameCube purple.

Actually it should be $49.99 and still be GameCube purple, it's just plastic. Unless it's leather, but it's probably just plastic. 🤑

Spent too much as of right now so have to wait until Holiday for any more options.

Would be great to have one. But, I am not made of money.

@NintendoLife I don't want a switch 2 logo broadcasting a switch inside. There isn't much on the market for carry all travel cases for swtich 2. If NL ever finds a decent DSLR camera case that fits a switch 2 well (possibly with customizable padding dividers), I'd love to see some options.

Holy crap Batman! That's some insane pricing there.

I wanted this but the price is just far too high. Other companies will probably sell a carry case with room for the dock for $50 or less. We are experiencing peak Nintendo pride with these accessories prices.

I just buy case for the actual console itself. That’s all that needs to be super snug and protected anyway. I have a sweet neon green glow in the dark super mushroom case for my Switch. The controllers, games, dock, cords, etc I just throw into regular travel bags

Wow, how... unappealing for a Nintendo product.
I mean, I miss the quirkiness of their designs, the striking red color... from afar it looks like something targeted towards a random business executive on a work trip.

@inenai While I appreciate its overall design and color choice trying to communicate more sophistication, I also miss Nintendo's more lighthearted sensibilities.

And as others said, the price is so high as to reveal Nintendo's sheer hubris rolling into the Switch 2 generation. It's unbecoming.

I have one for my Switch 1, but I don't use it much because I don't travel that often with my dock, unless I'm going over my friend's house. I probably won't repeat that with Switch 2, especially if my current case works. I might be more interested in that smaller case option since I will definitely need that for when I get a Switch 2, but I'll likely find a suitable off brand.

This would be nice if you want to bring the Switch to a friend’s house for gaming session on the TV. Or if you’re a kid and you’re visiting your grandparents over the summer or maybe having a a sleepover at a friend’s.

Nice if you’re renting an AirBnB too. We travel a few times a year where we stay 5-7 days, so packing up the dock is something I actually might do.

All that said, the price is ridiculous. This should be $49.99 MAX.

There will certainly be many excellent alternatives on the market, better quality and lower prices, as it was with the smaller Switch 1 cases (Tomtoc comes to mind, but I’m sure there are many other).

I'd like to see a travel case that is a dock.

Nintendo, now the Apple of video games.

The shell does look quite durable and considering the price of the console, I can understand the wanting to invest in one a high quality one.

But with competitors offering similar products it's hard to fork out 80 beans.

The fact that you need to take the joy cons off to put it in the case, means I'm not getting it, all other factors are irrelevant.

I'll probably get a Skull and Co case/setup, as I absolutely love my S1 case. But I'm willing to shop around and be crazy this gen (and perhaps get a themed case)

Where do you put the camera?
