Nintendo Switch - Zelda Breath of the Wild Edition!

2017-05-21
I've got something really cool and special to show off today this just came in recently now if you saw yesterday's video or you noticed all the stuff behind me you'll know I've done a Zelda theme Nintendo switch set up its The Legend of Zelda and its really rad those creatures from gannets are pretty bad and to complete it I wanted a very special switch to go with it so I talked to color where and got a custom-designed one to match the theme now obviously I know this looks like how they set up the order but I haven't actually opened yet so I haven't seen the real thing physically so let's go ahead and check it out right now just open it up oh this is pretty okay let's get so I want to do something that was based more on breath as a wild specifically because that is the one for switch so for the main body I actually got it designed to match with links main tunic the one that you see on all the different ads and stuff so those were the closest blue I could find I think they called it paradise blue I went for a matte finish because metallic just didn't look good to me and of course white trim for the switch logo which this looks a thousand times better than the regular switch I'm sorry black is always cool but this is so pretty now that match with that to go with a little more traditional Zelda to highlight it I got gold joy cons yeah now this has a metallic finish I can't ask you to get that gold look but do it looks like roll together that's which sound is still so satisfying every time yeah that looks awesome I am so happy with it as though this actually turned out I mean the picture looks cool but this this is awesome one other thing that got customized with this set cables of stuff don't really matter the time you guys have seen a switch probably before you can also get the dock so I got the dog to match with the same thing I did on the back I mean it's black on the back to the front side is that thing blue that's right I think this is going to fit with this set up really nicely now as cool as this is this actually wasn't the first design I had I went through a whole lot of other ideas first mainly because while we knew we wanted to do an ultimate switch setup we didn't decide on the theme just yet though zeldo was a very likely one so to begin with one of the first designs actually went for was something a little more generically Nintendo and did one based on the original NES where the main body was this gray that was very close to white the logo was red which actually looked really cool and I even used a black bar for the kickstand to emulate that black bar on the original NES another design idea I had was actually go with the Japanese Famicom where instead of a gray color it's more of an off-white cream you have a dark red cranberry mixed in which actually might be my personal favorite design out of all the ones we've done but while that was cool we thought might better to go for a more specific franchise and before you get to zelda the first one you have to do is mario so for that one I went for a red base body I did white on the logo to kind of match with Mario's hat and I did blue joy Kahn's to match the overall that he wears and pants but that one didn't really work because when you looked at the switch from the front you just had blue joy cons and none of the red came through doesn't really make it think of Mario also at the same time as a Luigi design alternative because Luigi is the better brother so I worked through a couple other ideas I did a Metroid one that was red and orange I thought about maybe doing a Donkey Kong one with brown and maybe a little yellow or red for the tie but ultimately we landed on Zelda being the best idea since after all breath of the wild was the big launch title so I actually two design ideas first before hitting this one one was to go with a more traditional designs I thought Nintendo would do we're at a black switch with gold highlights which did look pretty cool but I didn't like really going with a black backs of the switch because we already have black switches it just didn't feel like anything unique or different so instead I went for idea that was based specifically on breath of the wild where I took ideas from links tunic so he has that blue design like this here and then for the joy cons I actually went for an asymmetrical design like the neon where it was white Dormont side white on the other which looked good but I still miss having that gold so I end up deciding to collapse the two ideas which led to this now I know I already kind of said this at the start but I really want to drive home how insanely good the quality on this thing is I mean I'm sure just seeing it you think it looks cool but even feeling it in comparison to an actual Nintendo switch it just want to feel all that different I mean it is paint so the texture is a slightly bit rougher but not in any way is actually uncomfortable I mean you barely notice after using it for a little while and if you show this to someone it didn't tell them it was a custom job people could easily believe that this is some kind of special vision that Nintendo released I mean it's just awesome there is one other thing about it I almost forgot to mention it and that's I'm giving this one away so if you watch has to own this thing check out the link down below description for all the details also if you haven't seen the switch set up video all the crazy stuff happening behind me make sure check that as well and I'll see you guys later good cut the link commercial get these denim don't go get amino in this mess who's left you make a mess you bet that adventures nice here
