Everyone needs a little colour

Tired of the Nintendo Switch's Grey colour? This service lets you add your own flare to the console
|

Rather than starting off the day with negative Switch news, let's look at something pretty neat. A new service called ColorWare lets you customise the colour of your Nintendo Switch, never mind grey.

The Neon version of the Switch provides a lovely splash of colour on an otherwise dull machine, but ColorWare lets you go several steps further. From customising the left and right Joy-Cons, the main body, and the kickstand, right through to colouring the little logo at the back, it's got you covered.

You can choose betweens mattes and metallics and for an extra fee you can even get your dock painted from its original dark grey/black.

Sadly it's not a service that works with used Switch consoles, so if you want to take advantage of ColorWare you'd have to buy the Switch as well as the colour. This collectively costs about $400 and an extra $50 for the dock, and that's before postage and shipping.

But, it's a bit of fun and a way to brighten up your console if you fancy it and have the cash to spare. Check out the website now.
