dBrand Skin for the Nintendo Switch

When the Nintendo Switch first came out, people were already asking dBrand whether they’d make a skin for it.

dBrand’s answer: “Can’t do it.”

The reason was that the adhesive would damage the soft-touch coating on the Switch, so they didn’t recommend skinning it.

Then, more than half a year later, dBrand suddenly announced they’d developed a new adhesive — and now they could offer a skin for the Switch.

I bought one on launch day and tested it out. Not bad at all.

The skin comes with a thorough set of instructions, and covers everything from the console itself to the dock. That said, I’d suggest this is mainly for people who didn’t get the neon red/blue model — it fits better on the other colors.

Not that it matters if you’ve got the standard colors; it works just fine on those too, and the texture feels pretty good…
