Nintendo Switch 2 enthusiasts have recently turned their attention from the console itself to a seemingly mundane yet intriguing detail: the size of its physical game cases. This shift in focus was sparked by a potential leak from French retailer Fnac, which listed dimensions for a Take-Two Interactive game intended for the Nintendo Switch 2. According to the listing, as reported by Nintendo Life and journalist Felipe Lima, the new game boxes are expected to be slightly larger than those of the original Nintendo Switch.
A visual comparison was shared on Reddit by user HertzBurst, showcasing the side-by-side dimensions of the current Switch game case and the speculated Switch 2 case. The leaked dimensions suggest the new boxes will measure approximately 5.1 inches by 7.7 inches (13 cm by 19.5 cm). Although these cases are larger than the familiar smaller cases of the current Switch, they remain significantly smaller than those used by Xbox Series X and S and PlayStation 5 games. While not officially confirmed, it's plausible that retailers would need such information early to organize their stock displays.

The release of the Nintendo Switch 2 appears to be on the horizon, with rumors suggesting a launch window between June and September. This speculation is fueled by ongoing hands-on events scheduled until June and a statement from Greedfall 2 publisher Nacon, indicating that the console will hit the market before September.
The announcement of the Nintendo Switch 2 came earlier in January via a brief trailer, which confirmed features like backwards compatibility and the addition of a second USB-C port. However, many details, including information on other games and the function of the mysterious new Joy-Con button, were left undisclosed. Speculation about the new button has led to theories, including the possibility of it functioning as a mouse for the Joy-Con.
