Bedazzled.

i would definitely put that switch on a rotating base so you can see the back too.

[@robertwolfgan]

@@Kyle_R_Wolfe Finally, found the comment I was looking for. Yes Wood, this ⬆️🙏🏻

[@DonnieDartyJr]

You should get one of those rotating bases so it spins slowly in the case, you would be able to see all of it as it spins.

[@chunkabo716]

I was just about to comment the same thing

[@Greensky02]

I just commented the same thing and I'm NOT removing it. It stays.

Totally right! I would love to see it spinning in other videos

[@albertobarrios6276]

Damn the lack of Nintendo games or content leads to innovation

[@AF-ge4pe]

Right 🤣 our content creators need the switch 2

[@albertobarrios6276]

@markperkins2656 Bro, I saw Linus Tech Tips video on the gold controller, and they made 2 separate videos about it because it was expensive. I wouldn't blame Wood for doing the same and getting his money's worth.

[@__BlacklotuS__]

lack of games ? the switch library is massive

[@mikeuk666]

Cool trolling

[@AF-ge4pe]

@@__BlacklotuS__ they probably mean new games. Apart from the epach game nintendo doesnt have big guns out therefore content creators need to be creative

If El Chapo had a Switch this is what I image it would look like.

Fun fact--it's actually possible to metal-plate plastic! There are companies out there that specialize in it, including doing gold plating! BUT if you're going through all that trouble, going with the metal shell will give you the increased heft and temperature transfer for that extra ritzy feel.

[@Kyle_R_Wolfe]

i would definitely put that switch on a rotating base so you can see the back too.

[@morterox2]

Part of the video: wholesome sponsor video for better dog food. Other part: nonsense money on a golden switch. Man I love you.

[@MonadoMax]

Love the creative energy in this especially with how hard it is making switch content right now! Great work Wood!

Stay gold, Pony Boy.

A gold platted Nintendo Switch is crazy!

[@YunaCrawford]

Probably owned by the British royal family I bet

[@Greensky02]

Wood needs one of those slow rotating displays to properly showcase this. It looks amazing!

[@magnion3535]

If I’m remembering correctly, the Queen’s staff actually turned down accepting the Wii. I remember someone who used to work at THQ saying that the gold Wii disappeared from their office before they shut down.

[@jonathansantiago5327]

I’d imagine that as Bob watches this video, he’s going like, “Damn. Now I want to make one.”

[@robertwolfgan]

Bro that dog food looks good for them, thank you for telling me about it. I didn't know it existed.

[@stefanieslater8950]

That dog food looks so good I wanna try some

[@MrRepublicking]

WOW the 24k Gold Hits different compared to a Gold plated housing. It’s super cool. Jewellers use similar machines to change other met like Stainless Steel into Gold plated, surprisingly used same method for electronics. Wish you told us how much the project costs in making it Gold.

[@miguelcorrales2380]

next is the dock! also get a gold case for breath of the wild!

[@lukenaylor4445]

That is an amazing idea!

[@kevinsargent]

5:34 He says it's "200 pounds of gold."

[@castelcatjerome]

This is so sick and I love it! All the engraved details take it up so much more too!

[@BrittannieDuncan95]

Yasss i love the outsiders reference!! “Stay golden” ^^

[@Brodizel2012]

I’m so happy you uploaded!

[@brandonkasper4416]

Going in raw when you screw is the preferred way.

[@morterox2]

For some

[@wynnietheboo]

The etching on it makes it look really good! Incredible work. It really is a piece of art!

[@Crispy_Boii]

To plate the front you need a semi metalic primer made for plating plastics. That's how they plate the chrome plastic parts on your car. I hope this helps.

[@GundamrussGaming]

This video was Gold :)

[@Lord_Mangoat]

It looks so nice! I would maybe just remove the battery. As with any device, when not in use or being put away for a while, I'd always remove the batteries.

[@nontendostan]

So this is what you were talking about on the podcast. Glad i didn't have to wait that long.

[@Renvaar1989]

Wow that looked better than I expected. My jaw dropped when the joycons first came out.

[@DB-vi7jb]

Instead of a spinning plate, you should place either a reflective Plexi glass behind it or a reflective window film. Also, look up how to care for gold-plated objects, they lose shine over time if not properly stored.

[@ynahraasakura7197]

I usually don't like gold stuff, but with that engraving it looks awesome. Cool idea!

[@SMarcey]

Holy crap that thing looks so sick. Boxy pixel shells are rad

[@zackattack3569]

Love to see cool Nintendo content from a guy with the coolest hair!

[@anthonypower9121]

When I hear "golden wii," that really takes my mind to places it doesn't need to go.

[@kiliankleber7785]

Even with the different shades of gold- it looks amazing.

[@Capm2929]

Now you just need the gold Satisfye grip to go with it... And make it heavier than an anvil.

[@cosmic_drew]

I love the idea and it looks INCREDIBLE.

[@etherealyoru]

WOW the Zelda shot was so cool!!!

[@kina8575]

The design is so awesome too

[@jamesoneavatar8644]

That's badass! Im sure someone will sell some somewhere. Happy belated 10th anniversary! I think ive been watching you for 6 or 7 years. Always great content!

[@Gubble420]

I have the boxy pixel brass joycon. They achieve a very similar look. And they sell them on the websight

[@hanmert00]

this is so unique and super cool!! thanks for this vid, wood ❤

[@ShadowSora95]

Loved this video, I really like when you do these little projects they always turn out so cool! Love your videos, try not to let the haters get to you, theres plenty of us who love and support you!!

[@ethanvalentine4299]

the OLED frame is metal already. You could get a gold front with an oled if you strip the paint and then gold plate it. But with the OG your best option is sadly gold paint but you could get a gold paint marker and mask off the screen and not even need to disassemble.

[@MedalionDS9]

Super cute ad for the Food for Dogs lol

[@Witchy93]

Ooo this video was creative and fun to watch! 😊

[@willderr20]

Whats crazy to me is how great it looks even compared to gold painted joycons. The gold diped metal makes a huge difference!

[@Tyler_Skye77]

You could put gold leaf on the front. It wouldn’t be quite the same, but it would finish the look. You can get authentic 24k gold leaf, but a lot’s synthetic. You can find it, though.

[@obviouslygregg]

Such a cool build Wood. I've actually been thinking of doing a shell swap to have green shells with gold buttons, like ocarina of time joycons. I think they'd be really cool and I can't find anyone who has done that yet

[@esk8jaimes]

They ought to make that gold engraved design a production model shell, even if it's just painted!

[@zelbiee3678]

I ran to the boxy pixel website to see if I could get that engraved design for my joycons/back plate too. It's not on there 😭 they do custom etching but I'm not sure if this design was just for Wood?

[@MhoonSke]

Gamers getting strong with this one

[@laurenfarns]

The best sponsor for s video I’ve ever watched in my ENTIRE life

[@mattwood8425]

I don't even have enough spare income to upgrade to a OLED switch and this guy is on his 200th and now its gold plated !!

[@Isaacandadler]

You should definitely play from this gold switch. So cool!! What's the point of having the coolest switch and just let it sit on the shelf. Put a clear case and go ham!

[@esk8jaimes]

love the dog food advert

[@Mattgyver1987]

Hey Wood since you're just displaying it you should put two switches side-by-side the front with only the front part of the joy-cons in gold and then the other one is backwards to show off all the rest awesome etching that got done on there... or just get a rotating stand

[@ashgaming7045]

I love Gold and that 24k Gold Switch is Sic!

[@thedoge6287]

Stick drift “guess you’ve wondered where I have been”.

[@austinleblanc234]

YES!! Diamond Switch must be done!

[@Acernest]

This looks good! Suggestion on the front though. How about putting something like a sticker on the black side of the screen to make it more better with the same designs running on the back plat and joycons. That way you have a clear screen, gold layered sides, then another thin layer of black then the gold plated joycons. Just a thought haha!

[@liliangonzalez7211]

I think if you get one of those spinning things for display you can place the switch on it to showcase the back. That would look sick ❤

[@JustbeKam2.0]

Wsg bro am a huge fan 😂❤

[@kohiek]

That is the most beautiful Switch made.

[@cosmic_drew]

I can't wait for the new switch to come out so wood's views go back to where they should be. Keep at it man. We'll get there eventually!

[@goodnightmoon]

2:47 LMAO

[@allenellisdewitt]

You could do gold leaf on the front.

[@8888jackman]

YOU NEED THE GOLD MARIO AMIIBO DISPLAYED NEXT TO IT!

[@swarticus4228]

Need to put it on a motorized Lazy Susan (turntable) to get the awesomeness of it.

[@SuperDerek]

This looks sick!!

[@adamc1019]

It’d be cool to put it in a rotating display case so you can see the back as well.

[@Imsobec]

24k magic in your hands 🙌

[@jstartt]

I love this for you 😂 what a legend

[@justin21002002]

you need a square mirror to go behind it in the case so you can see the back.

[@kellybeth257]

This is so cool! Great video!!!!

[@kengelina]

I don’t know what I had on my bingo card for this fine Saturday, but it sure wasn’t a gold switch - so shiny 🤩

[@jakeyboy2540]

Looks great! Maybe gold leafing would work for the front?

[@Wfreddy84032]

That was really cool. Do you know how the etching was done?

[@CaseyNoK]

BeatEmUps has become the Golden Switch Boy!

[@kelseyniehaus1319]

Where did you get the Nintendo switch acrylic display stand from? Looks awesome!

[@kkrider276]

That is so FREAKING COOL

[@abtinbarzin8369]

Generally speaking, I think most goldsmiths tend to use 18K gold instead: gold is a relatively soft and weak metal, so it's really easy to dent and damage. Mixing it with other metals gives it a bit of extra stability so it doesn't just deform if you accidentally press too hard on it. Although I completely understand, that wouldn't make for NEARLY as exciting of a title and thumbnail lmao.

[@HiImTrace]

Beautiful!

[@pensivepensieve]

This was sick!!

[@amarpatel6073]

You should put a mirror or something so you can also see the back plate

[@alexmott887]

You could sort a gold dock too for a complete display 😊

[@justingiehm5096]

2:06 is a great frame lol

[@alexanderkennedy3736]

The absolute madlad

[@mostlyghostey]

Gold leaf works wonders my dude. Just brush some glue on that front piece and throw som gold leaf on and bam.

[@ActNasty5]

“200 pounds” 😂

[@ThatIsLukas]

the controller actually looks sick, just not used to backplates being the same color as the controllers so it looked off in my opinion but still amazing
