GamiFries Could be First 3D-Printed Nintendo Switch 2 Accessory That Holds Fries

GamiFries, a 3D printed accessory for the Nintendo Switch 2, keeps a McDonald’s medium fries box close during marathon gaming sessions. Made by a gamer who goes by 7R135, it clips onto the console’s magnetic connectors, a fun and practical solution for gamers who want to snack without having to pause.

It’s designed to hold a medium McDonald’s fries box, and literally molds to its shape. GamiFries uses the Switch 2’s magnetic system to attach in handheld or docked mode. In handheld mode, the fries sit above the screen, adding a little bulk that may be a challenge for fast paced games. In docked mode, with Joy-Cons detached, the fries sit at snacking distance, so you can grab a fry without pausing play. The design’s click in stability means no extra fasteners are needed.

Free on MakerWorld, the STL files allow anyone with a 3D printer to make their own. 7R135’s open source approach means a community of snack loving gamers, the design prevents wobbles or spills during intense matches. This thoughtful design means fries are always accessible without crumbs, so you can stay in the game without distractions.

There may be minor issues with some Switch 2 units where the magnet polarity is off and the holder will push away, but a simple screen recalibration fixes this. GamiFries excels in high stakes situations like online multiplayer where pausing means defeat, making it a seamless snacking solution for uninterrupted gaming.

GamiFries is part of the growing trend of DIY Switch 2 accessories, as the magnetic connectors are versatile to say the least. From cartridge holders to custom docks, fans are innovating but GamiFries stands out for being creative, turning a console into a fast food ally.
