Nintendo Switch 2 Fans Think They've Figured Out the New Physical Game Case Size

Feb 21,25(1 years ago)

Speculation about the Nintendo Switch 2 has shifted from the console itself to the size of its game cases, following a potential leak from a French retailer.

Nintendo Life reported that journalist Felipe Lima discovered a listing for a Take-Two Interactive game on Fnac, a French retailer, revealing the alleged dimensions. If accurate, Nintendo Switch 2 game boxes will be slightly larger than those of the original Switch.

A Reddit user, HertzBurst, created a visual comparison showcasing the size difference between the two. The leaked dimensions are approximately 5.1 inches (13 cm) by 7.7 inches (19.5 cm).

While larger than current Switch cases, they remain significantly smaller than those used for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 games. Although unconfirmed, it's plausible that retailers would receive these dimensions early to prepare for stock and display arrangements.

A release window for the Nintendo Switch 2 remains unannounced by Nintendo. However, speculation points towards a launch between June and September. This is based on hands-on events scheduled until June, and a statement from Nacon, the publisher of Greedfall 2, suggesting a pre-September release.

The Nintendo Switch 2 was initially unveiled in January with a short trailer highlighting backward compatibility and a second USB-C port. Many details, including its game lineup and the function of a new Joy-Con button, remain undisclosed, although theories surrounding a potential Joy-Con mouse feature have emerged.
