Nintendo Switch 2 discussions have pivoted from console specs to physical game case sizes following a potential retailer leak.
As noted by Nintendo Life, journalist Felipe Lima discovered a French retailer Fnac listing for a Take-Two Interactive Switch 2 game that included product dimensions. If accurate, Switch 2 game cases will be slightly larger than current Switch versions.
The speculation gained visual context through a Reddit comparison by user HertzBurst, displaying the two case sizes side-by-side. The leaked measurements suggest dimensions of 5.1 inches (13cm) by 7.7 inches (19.5cm) for the new cases.

While marginally bigger than current Switch cases, these would remain significantly smaller than Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 game boxes. Though unconfirmed by Nintendo, retailers typically receive physical dimensions early for inventory planning and display arrangements.
Industry speculation points toward an imminent Switch 2 launch, with potential timing between June and September based on upcoming hands-on events and Nacon's statement about Greedfall 2's release window.
Nintendo initially showcased the Switch 2 in a January teaser confirming backward compatibility and an additional USB-C port. Many details remain undisclosed, including specific launch titles and the function of redesigned Joy-Con controllers - though some theories about mouse-like functionality have emerged.
