Mechanism has teased its first Switch 2 accessory coming this summer. The company, which made its name with the Deckmate accessory ecosystem for Steam Deck and other handhelds, has unveiled the Basegrip Plus case.
It works with its vast ecosystem of platform-agnostic attachments, but contains swappable parts that only work on the Basegrip Plus, from rear plates to bigger Joy-Con 2 grips. Some of them will be available as free 3D files, if you want to print them out yourself.
It won’t move to production until it verifies that the Switch 2 actually fits in it, a cautious mindset that I respect (one that many accessory companies aren’t bothering with). One thing to note is that the case won’t fit in the dock at launch, but Mechanism plans to create an adapter.
