The point ↓
Switch 2 mounted to the Gaming Pillow in bed
Floats in front of you

You'll fall asleep before your arms do.

Click your Switch 2 into the Gaming Pillow and it takes the full weight of the device. The display floats right in front of you while you lie back, controllers in hand.

Absolute setup perfection.

The point

Every case protects. Only this one mounts.

Protection is through the roof. Impact-resistant polycarbonate with overmolded rubber edges. The mounting point does not mean we skimped on the case part.

Grips that swap in seconds.

Two grip sets in the box. Pop one off, snap the other on. Change the feel without buying a whole second case. There is hidden game card storage tucked in there too.

For makers

Design. Print. Snap.

The backplate is made for makers. Grab the free print files, remix your own, snap it on.

Make it useful. Make it deeply cursed. That green plate is a printed "bricky" base. Not Bricks and Minifigs though, screw those guys.

4.8★★★★★Verified buyers, Basecase for Switch 2

This new Basecase for Switch 2 solves all of that! […] protecting Switch 2 just as well as the dbrand case did […] And all of that for a cheaper price tag than the dbrand case! […] I am excited to try out the new hand-grips and back plates as they come out!

★★★★★ David Seunghwan Kim, verified buyer

Very solid. Feels high quality. Attention to detail. Like the expandability / customizable options of the back plate. The joy con grips feel really nice in the hand. Well done.

★★★★★ Gary M., verified buyer

I am not one to leave reviews but this has been such a delight that I am. This case in combination with any of the mounts […] is such a simple way to relieve my arthritic hands from holding something heavy.

★★★★☆ Ali M., verified buyer

Worth the wait. Sturdy, fits perfect and the joycon covers are very comfortable. Thanks for another great product Mechanism.
