i wanted to buy a purple one for mine a few years ago and they were sold out so i bought an orange one and then i had to send in my joycons for free drift replacement and they’re just blue and red again with the orange back on my switch
if Nintendo brought these shells back for consoles instead of giving you a sheet of Mario stickers to crookedly place on your switch, the console wars would be over once and for all
when i was 11 i dug up an old ps1 in a entertainment stand that was given to my family and left unused for a while and it was a grey made in japan model and it had two 3rd party transparent controllers, one red and one blue, and it had a transparent blue memory card!
I know something you'll like to really mod and I have the photos to prove it.
First off your gonna need assets from the hyperkin duchess S controller and some assets from the og Xbox type s controller to make an ultimate controller for the og Xbox here's the plan:
Upgrade the og Xbox controller
Ooooh! Funny enough my sister told me a few days ago that she wanted joy cons for christmas, might surprise her with sumn like this cause these look awesome
Gotta ask how much of a PITA it was to do the shell swap.... I have 2 early gen switches (one evil one good ;) ) and having the Atomic Purple and Smoke Obsidian shells would be awesome....

I wish companies would release more translucent systems. I always LOVED that in the 90s!
That was the same model of Gameboy I had
