it's been a little while since we've done a new switch setup we've tried to come up with different ideas and new ways to go about it but it always felt like we were just missing something different to tie it all together and thankfully our buddy Chris from floor eyes the guy that made our Xbox one shelf a year ago approached us with something he'd just finished working on for himself that he thought would be cool for us to feature so what have you brought to our attention today here this is like a switch stand setup deal it's just kind of uh I guess what where it came about was I used to always display my video games around the house but my wife wasn't super thrilled about it cuz she wanted to display her stuff I want to display my stuff so this was kind of a way that I could display it but it's still useful because these are actual systems yeah you know it's not a PlayStation 2 where I just have it sitting on a bookshelf or whatever these are things that we're still using and that was kind of the reason that I wanted to do that angled shelf so that yeah I do play them but like 90 percent of the time they're just kind of a decoration and they're on display so this yeah lets you see them and shows them off a little bit more nicely so if you want check out health for eyes built this I've been pulling down below if you guys check it out also we're gonna be giving a switch away and one of the ways you can enter in that is to watch that video so don't miss out so first let's talk about the system's incorporated in this setup now obviously we have a Nintendo switch but unlike for eise's design of wanting to put it on top of this mount we actually put it on a separate stand over there so we can instead deck out the top line with some amiibos to show off and below those we of course have the NES and SNES classic now something that's really cool about using these in a desk setup is that you can actually not have to deal with the annoying super short chords on the controllers if you want to be a purist use the systems as designed it's a lot easier now but honestly in my case I'm still probably going to use a wireless receiver and play them all Bluetooth now obviously aside from the system's there was a whole lot more going on this desk setup and a lot of it is themed off of major games from the switch we're going to start with the biggest of them The Legend of Zelda breath of the wild starting with this charge stand right here now this is one that is branded with Zelda stuff that looks really cool but more importantly it gives us a good way to charge additional controllers the regular doc is gonna let you charge two controllers at once but honestly if you're doing a lot of multiplayer stuff you're going to need to charge more droid cons than that and on top of that if you're using a pro controller you need an easy way to charge that as well without plugging in all the time so this gives us a way to charge those additional controllers no now another Zelda thing we got going on this is honestly one of my favorite accessories we picked up recently is this dock faceplate for the switch now it's actually a dock for your dock which sounds kind of ridiculous what you do is you take the switch dock put it on top of it plug it in and it creates this light emitter that goes into one of two face plates you can choose from one that is led to dissolve in that we have right now which I think looks better but if you're a Mario fan they have Mario Odyssey design as well that's also really cool you can switch between multiple colors you can have it do a fade effect or constantly blink through multiple ones just a really nice way to spice up the regular switch dog and of course no switch setup would be complete without some amiibos to show off and lately I have been loving the latest DLC for breath of the wild so I just felt like I really needed to show off the four champion amiibos which happened to fit perfectly on that top shelf that was originally meant for the switch dog now while most of this stuff is zelda we do have little representatives for a lot of other major games that have come out on the switch this year on the charge dock over there you'll see that we have the green and pink joy cons which came up for splatoon and along with those we also have a branded pro controller that was designed as a special edition for Xenoblade to which Cheska man is honestly a really fun game a little rough around the edges but definitely one of my new favorite switch titles now of course for a desk setup the most important thing that ties everything together is well the desk and that's why we went with this awesome design from artifacts that I thought fit this design perfectly you've got a couple different things that really helped out with accessories and setups we've got cable management built into it that makes it really easy for all the systems we have plugged in at once you have a little headphone rack below and something that's really cool is you can buy different kind of expandable shelves to add to it which is what we have that dock sitting on right now I also think this was the absolute perfect color to go with the set up because I think the white top does a great job of contrasting all the black accessories for the switch and the woodgrain on the legs is almost a perfect match for the same stuff that four-eyes used for his little switch docks setup right here so just all together ties things perfectly together
