Fans of the Nintendo Switch 2 are already showing their creativity just a month after the console’s release, with inventive accessories starting to surface from passionate gamers and makers.

The Nintendo Switch 2, launched to strong sales and positive critical reception, continues to inspire a dedicated community to enhance the hardware’s versatility beyond what’s available from official channels—including eye-catching user-generated add-ons. A standout example is the GamiFries, a clever 3D-printed Joy-Con holder designed by MakerWorld community member user7R135.

This unusual accessory offers a playful twist: it’s engineered not just to provide a grip for your Joy-Cons, but also to securely hold a medium-sized container of McDonald’s French fries.

The design allows the GamiFries to attach directly to the Nintendo Switch 2 in Handheld Mode, or to be used independently as a dedicated controller grip, adding a dose of levity to the gaming experience. In a video demonstration shared online, user7R135 showcases the GamiFries in action, emphasizing its dual functionality.

The designer explains that the holder was inspired by a love of both gaming and iconic fast food, resulting in an accessory that lets players “game and snack without missing a beat.” While the GamiFries is not commercially available, its design files have been made openly accessible through MakerWorld.

This means Nintendo Switch 2 owners with access to a 3D printer can download the necessary instructions and produce the Joy-Con holder themselves at home.

The free distribution aligns with MakerWorld’s mission to support innovation and collaboration within the 3D printing community. The Nintendo Switch 2’s growing ecosystem of third-party and fan-made accessories reflects the platform’s popularity and the enthusiasm of its user base.

Since its release, the Switch 2 has maintained a strong presence on the eShop, and its robust accessory market—from official Joy-Con color variants to inventive DIY holders—demonstrates the system’s broad appeal.

GamiFries is just the latest example of how fans are making the most of the hardware’s modular design. As the Nintendo Switch 2 continues to gain momentum, it’s likely that more creative accessories will follow, further enriching the console’s hardware landscape and reinforcing Nintendo’s reputation for fostering a vibrant, participatory community.
