Nacon Storage Case for Nintendo Switch 2: review
If you want the most all-encompassing, compromise-free storage for your shiny new Nintendo system, then the Nacon Storage Case for Nintendo Switch 2 might be ideal for you.
This large carry case is rammed with a whole lot of space for your console, dock, Joy-Con 2 controllers, traditional controllers, and accessories. It comes equipped with individual compartments for each part of your Switch 2 set up, so if you’re planning on setting up a gaming party, tournament, or travelling for a while, then it seems like the perfect companion?
But just how good is the Nacon Storage Case for Nintendo Switch 2 really? Well, I’ve spent a few days testing it and I have plenty of thoughts. Can it compete with some of the very best Nintendo Switch 2 accessories? Here’s what I think.
Let’s talk about the storage situation first, because this is probably the most spacious Switch 2 case I’ve ever seen — let alone tested.
You get a whopping 21 game card slots, which can also be used for microSD Express cards if you’d like, and that’s probably more than you’ll ever need. There’s also a net on the top side of the case where you can store HDMI cables, power leads and the like.
The main event, though, is the giant storage compartment with bespoke slots for specific Switch 2 gear. While this compartment isn’t anything flashy, and it doesn’t look the most attractive, it is admittedly pretty practical. I had room to place two Turtle Beach Rematch Wireless Controllers, four extra Joy-Cons, my Switch 2, dock, and power cable, enabling me to take my full setup anywhere.
Even when swinging the case around and dropping it from a controlled distance, everything stayed in place without a hitch.
My only real criticism here, would be that some of the slots are on the tight side of things. The joysticks on my controllers and on my Switch 2 were being pushed out of place in order for them to fit in the case, and while I don’t expect this would create lasting damage, it isn’t ideal.
Otherwise, the case is a pretty solid all-rounder. The exterior is sturdy and rigid, and it was resistant to scratches when I tried roughing it up. It did pick up dust and fibres pretty easily, though, which some may find frustrating.
Still, the zips are well-made and firm, the handle is wide making it easy to grip, and the interior compartment is fully removable.
The main downside of this case, if you ask me, is that it just doesn’t look amazing. Frankly, it’s gigantic, and rivals like Nintendo’s official All-In-One case provide individual compartments and strong protection with about half of the overall footprint. It also has a fairly one note design, and as I say, picks up debris pretty readily.
Ultimately, this case doesn’t have to look beautiful or anything — after all it comes in at a relatively modest price-point of $44.99 / £29.90 (about AU$63). But whether it’s right for you or not will come down to one major factor: are you willing to lug such a giant case around? Do you really need quite this much space? The answer for me on both counts, would probably be no.
If you can get past the size then you have a durable and (mostly) well made case that will store just about everything you need. If not, then I’d suggest checking out my alternative picks in the ‘Also consider’ section.

Buy it if…
You need a whole lot of storage space
If you need room for your console, dock, controllers, additional Joy-Cons, cables, and even more, then this case could be ideal for you. It’s one of the most comprehensive storage solutions I’ve seen for Switch 2 so far.
You have a lot of physical games
With 21 slots for games or microSD Express cards, the Nacon Storage Case is a great choice for the true physical gaming fanatics out there.
Don’t buy it if…
You want a compact option
This case is pretty large, meaning it will need to be carried separately, rather than stashed in a backpack, at least most of the time. If you want something more compact that can carry everything, then the Nacon Protection Case XL is a pretty neat choice.
You want the prettiest case around
Although this model is rammed with storage space, it’s not exactly the best-looking case I’ve tested. If you want something with a bit more personality, I’d recommend the alternative from Turtle Beach, listed below.

Nintendo Switch 2 All-In-One Carrying Case
Although it’s undoubtedly expensive, and a little tough to hunt down in some regions, the Nintendo Switch 2 All-In-One Carrying Case has remained my go-to when I need to bring my dock on the go. It’s well-protected, has compartments for all the essentials, is decent-looking, and crucially, is far smaller than this Nacon model.

Turtle Beach PlayTrek Travel Case for Nintendo Switch 2
This case managed to get an elusive five-star score out of me when I reviewed it earlier this year, and really is the full package. Eye-catching design? Check. Hardy exterior? Also check. Plenty of game card slots? Ch-ch-ch-check! The lenticular DK theme really did it for me, and although this model’s built for the Switch 2 only — no room for the dock — it’s a model well-worth checking out.

How I tested the Nacon Storage Case for Nintendo Switch 2
- Used the case over the course of multiple days
- Directly compared against other models
- Tested by a Switch 2 owner and experienced gaming accessories reviewer
I spent a few days putting the Nacon Storage Case to the test, bringing it with me when out and about and cramming it with just about every Switch 2 accessory I have.
During my time testing the case, I performed durability tests, which included scratching the model, as well as dropping it from a controlled height. I also compared it against rivals like Nintendo’s official all-in-one model.
More generally, I’ve spent years testing tech and gaming gear here at TechRadar, including a whole lot of Switch 2 cases. I’ve also been a Nintendo Switch 2 owner from day one, and know exactly what it takes for a case to stand out from the competition.
