Kid won't take no for an answer: Builds a Nintendo Switch out of cardboard
How do you think the frame rate is on cardboard Zelda?
We can all relate to this kid. That feeling of really wanting a particular thing -- in this case, a Nintendo Switch -- but not being able to get it. You can almost imagine his parents saying: "You want one? Build your own."
And so he did.
Twitter user @fraise_ama shot a short video of her little brother's cardboard creation (h/t to Kotaku). It doesn't actually play Switch games, but it is the full package: the tablet, the dock, the Joy-Con controllers and grip, even a tiny cardboard game cartridge (I'm assuming it's Zelda: Breath of the Wild).

So cute. How could any parent continue to say no when confronted with this kind of innocent enthusiasm?
