HORI has officially unveiled two new Pokémon Metamon-themed bags for the Nintendo Switch 2, offering two distinct storage solutions under the same character design framework. The NSX-185 Plush Pouch and NSX-164 Marugoto Storage Bag both carry official Nintendo licensing, releasing on July 31.
The functional split between the two products is the primary reason to consider them separately. The NSX-185 Plush Pouch is built around a single-console carry configuration: it holds the Switch 2 console itself, an AC adapter, an HDMI cable, and up to six game cards, with a fixed separator belt inside to keep the console secure during transport. Measuring approximately 30cm wide by 20cm tall by 11cm deep and weighing 175g without its strap, the pouch is compact enough for daily carry. An adjustable shoulder strap runs from approximately 50cm to 100cm, and the bag’s construction uses polyester throughout with POM hardware and metal fittings on the strap attachments.
The NSX-164 Marugoto Storage Bag occupies a different category entirely. Where the Plush Pouch is designed around the console alone, the Marugoto is built to carry the full Switch 2 ecosystem in a single trip: console, Nintendo Switch 2 dock, Joy-Con 2 grip, AC adapter, HDMI cable, and miscellaneous accessories. Three removable separators allow the interior to be reconfigured depending on what needs to fit, and a detachable handle adjusts from approximately 32cm to 52cm for carrying flexibility. At approximately 30cm wide by 21cm tall by 13cm deep and weighing 350g without its handle, the bag is noticeably denser in construction, using a combination of polyester, nylon, EVA core material, POM, and metal hardware to support the heavier load.
The design language across both products is consistent. Metamon-shaped zipper pulls appear on both bags, the interior lining of each is covered in Metamon pattern, and the Pokédex number detail lands on the shoulder strap of the Plush Pouch and the carry handle of the Marugoto Storage Bag. Both are officially licensed Nintendo products, confirmed compatible with the original Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch OLED Model, and Nintendo Switch 2.
The HORI Metamon Plush Pouch (NSX-185) and Metamon Marugoto Storage Bag (NSX-164) release July 31 online.
