4. Mumba Switch Carrying Case

While it would be great if you could hire a personal bodyguard for your Nintendo Switch, the Mumba Carrying Case is the next best thing. It can store your entire Nintendo Switch travel setup, including numerous fitted slots for game cartridges and memory cards. There’s even a big mesh pocket for other accessories.

Mumba’s case is lined with a thick casing, making it nearly impossible to suffer fall damage.

Unless you’re regularly standing more than 10ft from the ground, you have nothing to worry about with a Mumba case.

3. Mumba Dockable Case

If you often swap between playing Switch on your TV and handheld mode, consider the versatile Mumba Dockable case.

The Mumba Dockable Case is designed to be docked without a hassle in sight and fits perfectly with the Mumba Switch Carrying Case if you’re planning to travel.

2. ProCase Carrying Case

While creating a tiny impenetrable fortress around your Switch is the safest option, it might not be the most fashionable.

According to its manufacturer, the case is designed to protect your console from scratches, dust, and bump damage. The ProCase can hold up to five Switch Cartridges and a few accessories. It does the job for preventing basic scratches and scuffs when used inside another bag, but won’t offer much in the way of drop protection. You can purchase the ProCase for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite.
