Nintendo Switch 2 Success Sparks Demand for High‑Quality Protective EVA Cases
Nintendo’s newly launched Switch 2 has enjoyed a record‑breaking debut, selling 5.8 million units in its first fiscal quarter and moving 5.6 million copies of bundled game Mario Kart World

Alongside sales of the console, third‑party accessory makers have seen a major uptick in demand, particularly for EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) based carrying cases that offer hard-shell protection, waterproofing, and interior organization. A recent review tested thirteen Switch 2 cases and named Dbrand’s Killswitch as the standout for its robust protection and modular design; however, it acknowledged some early issues—such as Joy‑Con detachment—that have since been addressed via redesigned Joy‑Lock grips
