A Nintendo Switch 2 fan has created a clever accessory that lets gamers easily keep their McDonald's fries within reach while they're playing. The fry accessory lets players attach a McDonald's fry container directly to their Switch 2 or their controllers when the Switch 2 is docked.
Nintendo games have partnered with McDonald's many times over the years, bringing toys, Pokemon cards, and even Pokemon Happy Meals to McDonald's locations. While this particular creation has no official connection to McDonald's, it's likely that a lot of fans already see a correlation between the two brands.
Donkey Kong Bananza Fan’s Attempt to Customize Their Switch 2 Cartridge Ends in Disaster
A Donkey Kong Bananza fan throws caution to the wind to customize their Switch 2 cartridge, but it ends in complete disaster.
Now, a Nintendo fan has created a way to keep fries well within reach while a gamer is using the Switch 2, by creating a holder that directly connects to either the console or the Joy-Cons. The invention is by a creative fan known as user7R135, and has been shared on MakerWorld, where users can download the print files and make one for themselves with a 3D printer. The user also shared a video demonstrating how the amusing accessory works.
GamiFries Nintendo Switch 2 Accessory Keeps McDonald's Close
As demonstrated by user7R135, there are two modes that users can print out and use with their Nintendo Switch 2. The first version is the handheld mode, where gamers have the Switch 2 unit in front of them. The files include a sort of fries sheath that holds up to a McDonald's medium-sized order of fries, with a pair of Joy-Con adapters that connect to the sides of it. When used in handheld mode, the GamiFries sits on the right side of the screen, extending the width of the Switch 2 handheld setup considerably. The controller version will likely be more comfortable and familiar to players, as it simply removes the grip and replaces it with the GamiFries instead. On both versions, the GamiFries uses a similar shade of red to the official McDonald's labeling, and leaves a cutout in the center for the McDonald's logo to show through.
This product isn't for sale, so those who are interested will either need to print it themselves or have someone do it for them. Given that the Switch 2 only launched in early June, chances are that gamers and 3D printing aficionados will be creating a lot more interesting concepts like these. Of course, whether this is a wise thing to do with a Switch 2 remains to be seen. Getting food oils on the controllers and console isn't the best idea, and there have been instances of bug infestations in game systems in the past. Gamers may want to be cautious if they choose to use this device to ensure the same doesn't happen to their Switch 2.
