If you\u2019ve ever lost your Nintendo Switch, like YouTuber Michael Pick has, then you might want to take a page out of his notebook and just make a bigger version. While his might be a bit too cumbersome to carry, at least it\u2019ll never get lost. In a new video uploaded to his channel, the content creator shows how he made the self-described \u201cworld\u2019s largest\u201d fully functional Nintendo Switch. The \u201cdevice\u201d itself measure 70 inches horizontally and 30 inches vertically, making it one beefy console. There may not be much practicality, but, regardless, all of the buttons on the Switch are fully functional and respond to commands on-screen. This means that, if you really wanted to, you could play whatever you want on the system, without the need for extra controllers. It even has a 4K display, even though the actual Switch itself doesn\u2019t support 4K. And if you want to actually use it without wanting to press those large buttons, it\u2019s compatible with both the Nintendo Switch Pro and GameCube controllers. All of this compatibility is due to the fact that the giant Switch actually uses the real console. While the whole thing is made out of wood, 3D-printed parts and a whole lot of circuits, the inside contains actual Joy-Cons, as well as a Nintendo Switch. The YouTuber essentially hooked up all of the custom materials to the actual controller and unit, allowing it to function. Regardless of however you view it, the result is still impressive, especially when you see the amount of work that went into it, which was also showed in the video. That\u2019s been reflected by the community as well, with the video gaining over 20K views in less than 24 hours. For a channel with 4K subscribers, those are some impressive stats, especially considering they are still climbing at the time of this writing. As for the giant Nintendo Switch, he\u2019s not keeping it. Instead, it\u2019s been donated to St. Jude\u2019s Children Hospital so that the kids there can enjoy it. Here\u2019s hoping that he creates more of these types of devices in the future, maybe with other consoles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTuber goes viral with world\u2019s largest \u201cfully-functional\u201d Nintendo Switch YouTube, Michael PickA YouTuber has made what\u2019s he\u2019s calling \u201cthe world\u2019s largest Nintendo Switch\u201d and it\u2019s completely functional, complete with pressable buttons that respond with on-screen actions, a 4K display, support for Pro and GameCube controllers and more.
