Nostalgia for the Nintendo DS? You just need two Joy-Con and a smartphone

If you are nostalgic for the Nintendo DS, perhaps a user has found the solution for you. The portable console of the Kyoto house, which came out of the scene in the early years of Nintendo Switch, in fact comes back to life thanks to a decidedly innovative solution, which, however, we anticipate to be slightly expensive.



Generic As can be seen on Reddit, user MikeDubbz has made a kind of new Nintendo DS. How? Taking advantage of the Galaxy Z Flip, which is Samsung's foldable smartphone, a 3D printer and a pair of Joy-Con. The idea, portrayed in a series of photos shared on the popular social board, is decidedly brilliant and much more intuitive than we can imagine.




Although it is certainly cheaper to buy an old console on eBay or in a flea market, this experiment is still very pleasant to see. We are sure that this style exercise will probably be replicated in the coming months, perhaps taking inspiration from this project. And who knows if a Nintendo game decides to relaunch something official on folding smartphones: it would be a really nice surprise.
