Nintendo Switch 2 was in the center of Perpetual Online Discussions since the console was seriously shown in April, and most of the talk focused on its price. But having only a few days before the premiere of June 5, now we are confronted with the latest topic Switch 2: Ugly Box Art. Yes, if you let some Nintendo fans describe it, the art of the Switch 2 box is a view of sore eyes – but not for the reasons that you might think.
On Wednesday, Pokémon Company International finally revealed it Pokémon Legends: For It will be released on October 16, 2025 in the case of Switch and Switch 2. With the announcement, the company showed art in the coming title, and many fans of Pokémon and Nintendo agrees that the cover illustration was fire.
But the discussion quickly spread into how ugly people found the switch 2 cover compared to the equivalent switch, all because of the huge reservation covering the bottom of the cover. “It includes the Nintendo Switch game and the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition update package”, the waiver reads some Switch 2 games, along with the average QR code. “The update package is also available separately”.
Most complaints focused on how the crowded switch 2 covers took the beauty of the box. Other comments regretted the striking red switch 2 covers, arguing that the color turned to the illustrations of the game.
“Can I just buy a regular version of Switch 1 and buy an update package for it?” entered Askthetruuth. “I think the art of the Switch 2 box is cluttered.”
“Art of the OG switch box looks better,” says the user x Jean-Luc. “I can get used to the red belt at the top, but a small text printing at the bottom … They should simply make an additional sleeve or sticker put on a shrinking pack.”
“Switch 2 cases are terrible,” he wrote Dewrules235. “How did they think that everything that wasted red space was a good idea? They should have kept full art, replace the logo and make plastic red.”
It makes sense that Nintendo is a priority to sending – even if it meant the dedication of the first property for great art. Switch 2 will have three different games cards for their games: games 2 only 2, infamous key cards and cards that work both on Switch and Switch 2 consoles. The popular X Ninteneal account rounded the cards to play in the post, describing differences and codes related to each card.
Considering the confusion around the compatibility of Switch 2, key cards and 2 editions switching to the Internet, a petite print can become a gift from a gift in retrospect. And because so many people are already confused by the packaging of the Switch and Switch 2 console, the reservation to the game can be helpful for grandmother, who wants to make sure that her granddaughter will receive the right game for the right system.
But yes … this banner is not so scorching.
