<p>We’ve seen some pretty amazing fan-made things over the years here at Nintendo Life, mostly from those with a keen eye for creativity and imagination, and this latest effort is soaring right onto our list of absolutely must-see endeavours.</p>
<p>A gaming fan going by the name <a class="external" href="https://suprman9.wixsite.com/nerdvana/switch-tv-process">Suprman9</a> has created ‘Nerdvana’, a gaming room which uses a combination of ‘nerd’ and ‘Nirvana’ for its name. The room features a dedicated One Piece mural and a Superman arcade machine among other things, but there’s one item which has grabbed our attention in particular.</p>
<p>That’s right, hanging on the wall for all to see is a giant Nintendo Switch. Of course, in reality, this is a standard TV (65 inches, according to Suprman9’s site) with custom made Joy-Con plonked onto the sides. You don’t need us to tell you just how amazing it looks.</p>

<p>After initially thinking about a potential Game Boy Color setup, and then another for 3DS, the vision of this Switch monstrosity eventually came into being. “Finally, the idea of a Nintendo Switch hit me”, Suprman9 mentions on their blog. “The Switch was the perfect design because the center console looks like a miniature TV. Also, the Switch is the current console and has had some of my favourite games on it (<a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/super_mario_odyssey"><strong>Super Mario Odyssey</strong></a> & <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/legend_of_zelda_breath_of_the_wild"><strong>Breath of the Wild</strong></a>)”.</p>
<p>From there, the process consisted of an awful lot of accurate measuring and experimental woodwork. You can read up on its creation and see more images <a class="external" href="https://suprman9.wixsite.com/nerdvana/switch-tv-process">here</a> if you’re interested.</p>
<p><em>If we’re being completely honest, Nintendo Life HQ looks pretty boring now. Suprman9, fancy hooking us up with another Switch TV?</em></p>
