Nintendo Switch 2 Leak Suggests Larger Game Cases, Fans Raise Concerns

Leaked dimensions hint at significantly bigger game boxes, sparking environmental and design critiques from the community.

Leaked dimensions from a French retailer suggest that Nintendo Switch 2 game cases may be 43% larger than those for the original Switch.
The reported dimensions, if accurate, would make Switch 2 cases taller than those for PS5 games, despite housing similarly small cartridges.
Fans have expressed concerns over increased plastic waste and the lack of environmental consideration in the rumored design choice.
Some collectors are disappointed that the larger cases may disrupt the uniformity of their game collections across Switch generations.
Speculation suggests the larger cases may aim to differentiate Switch 2 games from Switch 1 titles, though Nintendo has not confirmed these details.
