So this isn't a cover persay, but I dare say they're just as important!
As many know the Switch library of games doesn't usually come with physical instruction manuals. Because of this I wanted to make my own manuals for a few games. Only issue is how the manual needs to be formated to fit the Switch case. The dimensions (from the few manuals I have seen) are really strange and I was wondering if anyone knew what they were?

From other topic:
Let me know if you find one for the Nintendo Switch. LoL Doubtful, but who knows.

Did any Switch games come with manuals, or even manual sized pieces of paper? There are manual clips for some reason...
I have never seen one.
I did measure and 9cm by 11.5cm manual would fit.
3-4mm thick should fit fine.

I have also not seen a manual of a switch game, yet. :) Most of the cases are empty except for the cartridge.

The Mario + Rabbids: Kindom Battle GOLD EDITION had three little pamphlets inside. One pamphlet with the download code for the season pass and two more containing advertisements for other Ubisoft products (the game Rayman Legends and Rabbids figurines).

Pokémon Let's Go also had some advertisement for other Pokémon products (the guidebook, the app Pokemon Go and the card game) inside.

The dimensions of those pamphlets are 8,5cm by 11cm.

The switch games I have that came with manuals were indie games like IttleDew 2 and CaveStory+. Measuring my IttleDew2 manual I get 12cm Wide X 9cm Tall Hope That Helps  :D
