The Mintendo Switchi console with 4 Pyon-Con color versions!

(The delivery system has been retired as of 2022-05-21. Please use the official Second Life Marketplace for redelivery.)

Play in handheld mode with Bento animations!
Rez to use in tabletop mode and touch one or both Pyon-Con to hold and play with Bento animation too! Let a friend touch the other Pyon-Con and play together!

See it in action with animated GIFs on Twitter:

- Super Bomberman R handheld: https://twitter.com/NiYOtanEN/status/881775159732056064
- Solo Splatoon2 tabletop: https://twitter.com/NiYOtanEN/status/881779052788551682

This is a parody/appreciation decoration toy without real games.
It comes with a few game cards you can rez or click to change "games" which plays a 10 second loop animation on the screen. Touch the screen to turn it off.
If you can not rez but want to change games in handheld mode you can wear a game card to load the game.
Create own games with the included full-perm script. (Just edit one line.)

The console is mod to change colors etc. but the script does not handle new links and contents. It contains two additional controllers for temporary attachments in tabletop mode with fixed colors.

The box also includes 3 alternative handheld animations for boys and girls. Just delete the "handheld" animation in the console, drop in an alternative and reattach.
Animations use the highest officially supported priority (5 at the time of writing). Feel free to use a custom one, the Switchi is mod.

##### FAQ #####
→ Some AOs (esp. Bento) use too high priorities or their scripts cancel other animations.
→ Kemono: The included alternative female animation was requested by a Kemono owner and we tweaked it to work with the non-standard Kemono shoulder deformations and head. But this is no Kemono product and I do not own or plan to support Kemono or other custom joint avatars.
→ As mentioned above, animations are priority 5 which is the maximum officially supported priority: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Animation_Priority
Higher priorities are possible in SL but not explicitly guaranteed to work. If you decide to make or use AOs that ignore the community defined standards as outlined in the wiki page above you will most likely run into issues. I want it to keep working even if LL changes their animation system in the future.
I realize with the introduction of Bento a lot of AO creators started using higher priorities (I suspect out of laziness/to avoid complaining) so contact your AO maker if you have AO issues.

TL;DR I will not support other deliberately incompatible/hacky products.

This is one of the best things i've found out there currently for handheld units on the market my only complaint would be needing higher priority animations out of the box and possibility of having your face point to the screen. This thing is apsalutly amazing. Also would be nice to be able to click on the kickstand to make it close and open. also would there be a possibility of getting a dock for this thing? but love it so afar cant wait to see what else comes of this.

This is great, could be amazing with a couple of simple changes.

The animations should be a higher priority, they don't seem to over-ride a lot of the AO that i wear especially when sitting on things.

Another thing i noticed, Why is the kickstand out? You wouldn't be playing with the kickstand out in handheld mode. It's a minor gripe but for a person that loves attention to detail this kinda stands out to me. There should be a tabletop version just for decoration with the kickstand out but the the avatar version should always be closed.

Good looking device but has one issue

The extra games and mod makes it easy to get roughly what i wanted on screen but it doesn't play well with other AO's or Animations it needs to have higher animation priorities

This is AWESOME! I saw it and I HAD to have it. Of course any Nintendo fan or Switch fan will have to have this. It's AMAZING! Not only can you hold it and it looks like you are playing it, you can change the screen from Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, or Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. I set to mine to Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. LOVE IT! You can't go wrong. Priced at $299L it's more of a steal than a deal. What are you waiting for? Buy it NOW!

This is awesome, the fact that it comes with little memory cards for different games to go on the display is awesome, If I were to ask for any change at all it would simply be for more, sell me more game cards for the display with more short gifs of games on them <3

I recommend everyone to get this.

This is so well made, and so detailed. When i see my avatar playing on the Switchi, all i can do is stare, and watch as she has fun. 10 out of 10.
