Minimalistic and Amazing

Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2018

This case looks more amazing in person than it does in any photo. The green and pink on it is vibrant! It’s a very minimalist, but that’s what I like about it. The case holds your Switch, 5 games, and that’s pretty much it. (When I travel I always carry a backpack so my charger is just gonna go in separately.) The inside of the case is all black and made of very soft material. The inner flap part can also be used as a stand to prop up your Switch.

Holds the Switch, but not much else

Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2019

I got this as part of the Splatoon 2 bundle with the green and pink joycons, but I believe the case is the same.

Other than being just big enough to hold a Switch, there's a flap inside that can store five cartridges. The flap folds out to make a stand that you can prop the Switch up on, which is better than the built-in kickstand, though it doesn't do much to solve the problem of charging the Switch while playing.

(You can charge the switch and just rest it on top of the plug/cable while it's propped up, but doing so makes me a little wary of potential wear and tear on the cable.)

The flap also has a mesh pocket on it, but I've yet to find anything that will fit in there without causing the case to bulge out uncomfortably, not even a pair of joycon straps. In fact, the control sticks on the joycons themselves are enough to press the case outward a bit--I can't stress enough how minimal this case is.

It's enough to protect your Switch and a few physical games, but don't expect to bring any accessories with you.

Slim & Stylish - Fits in a purse!

Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2018

First things first; I ADORE Splatoon and I absolutely needed this case the moment I saw it. It is a gorgeous simple design with the gear brands riddling the whole of the case. The case is a hybrid shell, both soft and hard and has two zippers in Splatoon’s iconic neon green & pink colors.

Let it be known that this is a SLIM case. It comes with a pouch to toss maybe a pair of earphones inside along with a few games. I do not usually carry many games so the slot amount is good for me. You will not be able to carry extra joycons in the case. The Switch & attached joycons are all you are going to fit which is perfect for someone like me who doesn’t want to take the whole dock on the road. If you want to carry an extra pair & maybe a charger, you’ll need to get a bigger case. Even though this case is slim, it does feature a Switch tablet stand inside which is where the pouch is. When opened, it turns triangluar so that you can prop your Switch somewhere on the go when you need it! The case also comes with a screen protector and instructions on how to apply it. Note that I am TERRIBLE at putting on protectors, however this one went on with ease and with no bubbles at all. It has a great reflection and will help to add just a bit more protection to the system.

What I never see reviewed is how cases fit in a purse. I myself use a 9 inch wide purse that I want to carry my Switch in. Before I used a bulky case that didn’t fit and its kind of a gamble to go around carrying a branded case in the wild. This case fits JUST perfectly into my purse so I can keep it hidden from the world while traveling with it. When I am not carrying my Switch around I keep it docked, so I use the case to store my extra joycons and my game-cartridge case. They fits snuggly together so it’s not perfect, but it’s fine when it’s sitting in my drawer waiting for use.

As a Splatoon fan I really like this case but there are some problems that I have to address that brings it down.

I personally love the design, It is more of a simple design that I don't mind bringing it out in a public area to play. The bright green and pink lining really grabs the eyes without it being too obnoxious. The inner sleeve can hold up to 5 games and it can be positioned to put up your Switch if needed.

For the case and a screen protector I would still say it is a little pricey, I would drop it another 5 to 10 dollars to match up with other cases in my opinion. Also the zipper does snag a little at the edge for my case.
