Title: Nintendo Switch Vertical Grip
Post by: Mr. Dude on February 07, 2019, 10:07:12 pm

Hey Guys,

I bought my son a 3D printer for Christmas and I am having just as much fun with it as he is... maybe even more!   :lol

Anyway, I decided to make my own vertical Nintendo Switch Grip for playing old school Arcade Games and SHMUPS!  There were some other designs out there but they had the joy cons sitting at an angle and it just didn't feel right to me.  So I made up a CAD model with the joy cons sitting straight up and down and I think this feels much better for playing some great vertical games on the Nintendo Switch.

Here are some pics of how it turned out!
