Inspired by the latest entry in Nintendo’s social simulation series, Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, a creative fan has made a truly fresh dock cover for their Nintendo Switch systems.
Rocketlab Design on Instagram (via Nintendo Life) has made a 3D-printed replica of the game’s supermarket building, Fresh Kingdom, that allows a Switch 1 or 2 dock to be inserted.

The creator also uploaded a fast-paced montage of it being assembled, which shows all of the intricate details that went into the final design. The end result is highly accurate to its in-game counterpart, complete with the adorable food models on its rooftop.

For those with the means to make their own Fresh Kingdom dock, Rocketlab has made the blueprints for the design available on MakerWorld.
Rocketlab has also previously made docks based on the Pokémon Centers from Pokémon Pokopia, as well as a smartphone holder inspired by the game’s PC units.
