New Nintendo Switch DS

Shmup enthusiasts will no doubt remember the Flip Grip – a vertical grip accessory designed for the Switch and launched on Kickstarter in June last year. The product made TATE-enabled games an absolute joy to play. At the end of last month, the engineer behind this creation – Mike "Mechachoi" Choi – also came up with a more "useless" creation, as he put it, allowing Switch owners to connect two systems together.

Now, a few weeks later, he's invented the "New Nintendo Switch DS", combining together two Switch units to create something that looks like it could be a bulky successor to the 3DS. If the name didn't already give it away, this is nothing more than a creative concept. See for yourself in Mike's video demonstration featuring The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild:
