Been almost impossible to get hold of - in stock at Argos now. Hopefully this helps some of you get it, if you want it. Game cancelled my order of it and I know it's happened to a few others; but gone through Argos as stated and got one, so thought I'd share.

The 14 game card pockets are a little optimistic....;-)

Is it just me or does this case not look super protective. Shame cos I want it :disappointed:

I guess it depends what you're looking for in the case. There's a bit of a thicker zelda one at Shop To for 19.99, looks a bit sturdier but I didn't like the design as much. For me it's just a case to carry it around in to avoid scratches; but like I say totally depends what you're after!

From the description on the product page:
"This toy does not provide protection"
I'll take that as a no...?

It is honest in description, "soft case", more for storage than any protection.Still looks good.

Yeah very true I think the other one is ugly too but I'll probably have to get it for the extra protection

Guess so. I didn't read description just based on pictures it doesn't look like it offers much protection

I did and regretted it. ShopTo delayed the order until the 31st when they said it was going to be the 3rd! And you have to email them to cancel

The reviews for this on Amazon US have put me right off it.
Main complaints being poor manufacturing (burst seams, buckled/stressed cardboard backing). Also concerns that the mesh pocket is overly tight making it difficult to insert or remove your Switch, and the zipper itself posing a scratch hazard to the device.
60% of the reviews are 3 stars or under, 36% 2 stars or under. It's a firm Nope from me.
Still a soft case with warning that if offers no protection.Not sure how you think it is better.

This case isn't very good. Switch moves around inside of it quite a bit. Quite possible if you filled the slots full of carts that they'd scratch your screen, also. I'll probably be sending mine back.

Do you have the switch turned on and Zelda inserted?

Got one myself, it IS soft protection and not a hard shell. Your Switch which does fit with both joycons attached has no strap to secure it so is loose unless you put it under the netting which can be fiddly when it snags on the sticks. Personally I love mine but it doesn't have the drop protection my 3DS case has so will be a lot more careful with it.

Does this one have room for the Joycon grips because the normal one doesn't even though it says it does

Yes if attached, not separately.

i was glad you posted this. Got mine ordered for same day delivery straight away. love my switch and love Zelda. Can't put it down!

Presume t4v means the shoulder grips for the joycons? Im a little annoyed that the official case has no where for them to fit if the joycons are attached to the main unit.

Do they do a case with the name of the other game on?
And does it come with a matching flask?

The last one must of sold out for delivery just as i clicked it as it said available for delivery so i clicked purchase went through to pick my delivery stock and it came up out of stock. So i ordered it for a collection instead. I'm not even going to open it im sure it will be a nice collectors item.

Limited edition huh? No thanks Nintendo. You clearly know how to do limited edition (NES mini). This is just a label.

Don't understand some of the bad reviews on this on page 1 of this thread.
Picked this up today and it's a vast improvement on the official stock Nintendo one I got last week. The decal has a lot of detail and it feels very durable. The Switch will also fit in the mesh netting and not move about.
Great purchase

Good to hear but perhaps as it is described as a soft case with no protection that is not helping its cause.

If anyone's after a hard case, I just got this one which seems pretty good. :smiley:
