Purah Pad Nintendo Switch Carrying Case

A carrying case that's almost as good as the switch inside

Nintendo has turned Link's Purah Pad from Breath Of The Wild into an officially licensed Switch carrying case, so you can transform into the hero of Hyrule when you take your console with you on the go.

Per

  • One of the most beautiful Switch cases you will ever find
  • An officially licensed Nintendo product created by PDP
Disadvantages

  • Does not inform you when a shrine is nearby

Some people like to carry their Switch around in a plain case, but I have a feeling you prefer a case that has both style and substance. If so, there is no better carrying case than this one. I don't care if you love The Legend Of Zelda or not, this is the best Switch carrying case on the market.

The case was designed to look like the Purah Pad that Breath of the Wild was built around. Link received it at the start of his adventure and uses the pad to help him in many ways around Hyrule. No, the carrying case version doesn't have as many features as the in-game pad, but it will protect your Switch and look good doing it.

Per

  • Unlocks items in Tears Of The Kingdom.
  • Compatible with Echoes of Wisdom
Disadvantages

  • Looks so good you'd think he was a good guy

When you think of Switch accessories, you think of controllers, cases, and maybe even a fancy dock. Unlike other consoles, however, the Switch's range of accessories also includes Amiibo – figurines of iconic characters that you can touch with your Joy-Con to unlock in-game bonuses.

The Ganondorf amiibo from Tears Of The Kingdom is one of Zelda's most beautiful characters and unlocks various items in different games in the series, including a new pattern for your glider in Tears Of The Kingdom and bonus items in Echoes Of Wisdom.

Per

Disadvantages

  • If you have more than 12 games, you may need more than one

It's great to have all the Switch game boxes on display, but if you play through the games quite often, it's a hassle to swap the cartridge, find the right box, other game box you want to switch to and then finally swap out the game cards.
