«Sócrates fue llevado a juicio como figura representativa — precisamente tal como sugiere Platón al identificar como sus enemigos más temibles a sus “antiguos acusadores” que habían hecho de él esa clase de figura— . Fue castigado por el conflicto intergeneracional, provocado por factores sociales más que individuales, y, desde luego, no por una única persona; fue castigado como maestro moralmente subversivo, cuando había otros a quienes se podía haber endosado igualmente esa extraña acusación; fue castigado como crítico de la democracia, a pesar de no haber sido el único, ni mucho menos; incluso Critias y Alcibiades fueron productos de su tiempo más que de las enseñanzas socráticas. Sócrates fue condenado a muerte porque los atenienses deseaban purgarse de tendencias indeseables, y no solo de un individuo indeseable.»

Minimal “Dash Express” case for Switch ⊟

I like to post about Waterfield’s game accessories because they’re well-designed, nice-looking, dependable, and, uh, they email me. (I don’t want to admit that it helps me find things to post, but of course it does!) I would still be using my CitySlicker case all the time if I ever left the house!

The latest Switch and Switch Lite accessory is the Dash Express, a slim case that comes in ballistic nylon, waxed canvas, or three different colors of “Forza textile,” something I’m sure Eric knows about but not me!

Its distinctive look comes from weaving together two yarn-dyed nylon threads in a unique basketweave that creates a vibrant pattern with undertones.  

The case costs $39, and includes an “early bird” bonus of a leather 4-game sleeve.

Another new Switch case from Waterfield ⊟ 

Nintendo Direct dropped last week, so it’s time for me to really dig into... this accessory announcement. Waterfield, who makes the really excellent CitySlicker case, has one more permutation to fit any possible Switch needs, with this $129 SwitchPack. Its two zipper pockets are designed to hold the Switch, plus a Pro Controller, straps, AC adapter, and even a small USB battery thing to recharge your Switch. That’s the idea, anyway. 

There’s also a new, limited red/gray colorway for the CitySlicker, which I think is meant to evoke the NES colors. 

Waterfield’s newest Switch case holds a bunch of stuff 

The $109 “Arcade Gaming Case” holds everything the excellent CitySlicker does, plus things like the power cord, the Joy-Con grip, and a stand (it seems designed specifically for Hori’s PlayStand, but certainly something else will fit).

This is the fourth variation Waterfield offers -- it’s bigger than most, but smaller than the Multiplayer Pro Case, which also fits the dock. Plenty of options if you’re looking for a super nice Switch case.

Buy this fancy Switch case, get Namco Museum for free 

Here’s an unexpected deal. If you buy the Waterfield Designs Multiplayer Pro case for your Switch between tomorrow and August 11, Waterfield will send you a download code for the Switch compilation Namco Museum (out tomorrow).

I haven’t tried out this particular case, but I love the smaller CitySlicker case. Priced at $149, this one is meant to hold your whole Switch setup, including extra controllers and dock and stuff, so a multiplayer party game is an inspired add-on. If you were already looking to buy a high-end case, it’s a nice bonus!

WaterField CitySlicker: luxury accommodations for Nintendo Switch ⊟

WaterField has a long history not only of leather bags and satchels, but of high-end carrying cases for handheld consoles, going back to the Nintendo DS. Their bags are pricey, but well-made and well-designed. And so, if you somehow managed to get a Switch, you like to travel with it, and you want to swaddle it in the most comfortable of surroundings, this is a fantastic option.

Switch cases for grownups from Waterfield Designs ⊟ 

This company has been a favorite of ours for a long time, making consistently beautiful and durable cases for handheld game systems and other stuff.

Waterfield has two different Switch designs: the $79 CitySlicker, big enough for the console, two Joy-Cons and straps, a USB-C charger, earbuds, and 5 game cards; and the $149 Multiplayer Pro Case, which can hold pretty much the whole Switch situation for parties and stuff.
