Shelf presence. When you walk into a store, Nintendo wants the Switch section to be easily spotted. If the cases were Vita sized, they would need far more to make it noticeable. Also, the larger boxes makes the box arts more distinguishable from a distance which is always good. It's all for retail presence and visibility. |
I mean why now and not for their prior handhelds, unless you're saying Nintendo is only now realizing this which yeah that is possible given how slow they can be sometimes.
