Snakebyte announces the aptly named Tough:Case for Nintendo Switch
Snakebyte, a creator of gaming hardware and accessories, have announced a new case for the Nintendo Switch. The case, called the Tough:Case, is designed to to surround the Switch tablet as well as the attached joy-cons. As you may have guessed from it's name, the Tough:Case's primary purpose is to protect the Switch from any unfortunate incidents it may encounter while you're out and about.
The case's design uses a rubber shell as the base, with the back being covered by a scratch-resistant polycarbonate cover. Despite the strength it provides, the case is light enough to not prove unwieldy for those trying to play on the go.
From the images, this case definitely looks like it provides good support to the Switch, and the components seem light enough to avoid being too invasive. Plus, I like the way the case wraps around the joy-cons, providing good support and helping hold the sometimes flimsy joy-cons in place. One potential concern to keep an eye out for is that the case will have to be removed to dock the Switch, so players who dock their Switch often will have to be prepared for this, or buy an adapter to allow them to dock their switch from an external hub.
The Tough:Case is expected to ship this August, and will be available in two colors: Strawberry Pink and Black.
San Diego, CA – July 17th, 2018 – snakebyte® group, leading innovators of consumer electronics hardware, announced today the Tough:Case™ for Nintendo® Switch™, an all-new lightweight case which protects the tablet and Joy-Con™ controllers from accidental drops and breakages.
