This new Hori Kirby case looks like they just gobbled up my Switch 2, and they're so cute that I'm gonna let them

Hori Japan has unveiled a brand-new lineup of adorable Kirby accessories based on the adorable pink puff ball and Waddle Dee, and my Ninty gaming setup is calling for each and every one.

The Switch 2 accessories have only been shared on the official Hori Japanese website so far on November 19, with no signs of an imminent US and UK launch, but it looks to be one of the brand's cutest collections yet. It features everything from a reversible Switch 2 storage bag, a wireless Switch 2 controller with TMR sticks, and my favorite of the lot, a plush Kirby pouch that can carry the new handheld, games, and work as a makeshift messenger bag.

🔷新製品のお知らせ🔷カービィとワドルディがポップにかわいくデザインされたNintendo Switch™ 2 周辺機器・アクセサリー「カービィ&ワドルディシリーズ」に新しく3アイテムが登場!▼製品情報はこちら製品ページ:https://t.co/rVVvI1ubmhYouTube動画:https://t.co/vZbEgydFN7… pic.twitter.com/gnmgr3bhqdNovember 19, 2025

It was hard not to be drawn to the Kirby Plush Pouch when browsing through the entirety of this new Hori collection. Like the PowerA Wireless Kirby controller, Hori has cleverly opted for a design that makes it appear as though they have gobbled up your Nintendo Switch 2. Its cuteness feels even more effective now that it's being used for a plush fabric Switch 2 case, which features padded plush feet and the neat detail of stars on its zippers.

Of course, it's not just a cute case, but the images reveal it's plenty practical too. Hori has included space to hold and carry the handheld, six physical Switch 2 games, and the Switch 2 AC adapter and charging cable. There's also an extra strap that accompanies the bag, so you can wear the Kirby Switch 2 case around like a designer handbag. Honestly, I'd much prefer to be rocking around town with Kirby than anything made by those fancy, smancy high-end fashion designers.

As much as I adore the Kirby plush pouch, there's plenty more to adore in this new Hori Switch 2 product lineup. The collection is made up of five items in total (with another on it way), one of which is the Return to the Stars Quilted Medium Pouch, a small purple quilted pouch for the Switch 2 and even the original Switch and Switch OLED models.

This case can also store up to six physical games and the AC adapter and its charging cable, but most importantly, it's equipped with a little transparent star-shaped window. I'm not usually a fan of these kinds of design choices, as I don't want any random strangers seeing what pricey Switch goodies I might be storing, but the little waving Kirby and Waddle Dee pictured on it is hard not to love.

While there's no signs that this Hori Kirby and Waddle Dee collection is making its way to the US and UK, there are still plenty of cute accessories you can grab for Switch and Switch 2 right now.

That's not it for cases either, as there's also a purple Kirby of the Stars Reversible Storage Bag part of this set. It features a fluffy version of Kirby and Waddle, sitting in the pouch's pocket. This can then be reversed, as the name suggests, to be a white bag instead. To pair alongside these cases, Hori has also shown off a wireless controller that's equipped with anti-stick-drift TMR sticks.

After the plush pouch, the Switch 2 pad grabbed my attention the most. It's made up of a translucent purple design that gives it a space-like aesthetic, which feels entirely on-brand for Kirby and friends. I also recently reviewed the 8BitDo Ultimate 2 controller with its TMR sticks, and not having to worry about drift was really reassuring - an experience I'd definitely want to have when playing Kirby Air Riders when I finally get my own copy of the game.

Hori has yet to make any official announcements regarding when we can expect to see these items in the US or UK, nor their US or UK pricing, but I wouldn't give up hope. Around the same time, the Hori Japan website unveiled a series of upcoming official Mario Kart World wheels based on Super Mario characters like Yoshi and Princess Peach. As of November 24, Hori announced on Twitter (X) that these will be "available soon", so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Kirby and Waddle Dee's accessories won't be far behind.

Ever since I first held a NES controller in my hand I've been obsessed with gaming, and the hardware it runs on. I could hook up a NES and SNES to a telly, without instructions, before I could walk. Even now, nothing is more exciting then taking a console, or handheld, out the box for the first time and setting it up. This obsession transformed into a love of games and game music, which lead to my music degree and dream of becoming the Scottish Nobuo Uematsu. After sharing my love of games through music, I began to share my love through words on sites like TechRadar and iMore. This lead to becoming a Hardware staff writer for PCGamesN, and later the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto, covering all things Steam Deck, PlayStation and Nintendo. With that experience, I was able to level up as Hardware Editor for GamesRadar+, where I'm still just as Nintendo, PlayStation and gaming tech obsessed as ever.
