It was only a matter of time before the Nintendo Switch dog made the leap from collective internet subconscious to somebody's 3D printer. Reddit user lsmallsl did the honors, designing and printing a useful little stand that completes the canine illusion for the very doggish Joy-Con grip. And yes, it's adorable. Of course it's adorable!

They're not for sale right now, though it sounds like the creator could be persuaded if there's enough interest. Hop on that Reddit thread and let them know if you want one!

Former GamesRadar+ News Writer

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
