A creative player of Donkey Kong Bananza has recently taken inspiration from the iconic jungle-themed game by crafting a custom, 3D-printed dock cover for the Nintendo Switch 2, adorned with Donkey Kong’s design. This game, which was released to positive reviews, is hailed by many as a standout title for the Switch 2 system.

In this game, players guide DK through a large underground world, battling foes and collecting rare Banandium Gems. Joined by a younger version of Pauline, DK faces various destructible environments and the malevolent VoidCo mining company on a quest to find the legendary Banandium Root, which promises the wielder’s deepest desire.

The talented user freakintoddles has brought a piece of this adventure into the real world, creating a tactile connection for fans through a 3D-printed cover that mimics the game’s beloved wooden barrels, complete with a striking “DK” emblem in vibrant colors. For those interested in replicating this custom design, downloadable files are available on Makerworld.

The success of Donkey Kong Bananza among early adopters of the Switch 2 can be attributed to its impressive gameplay mechanics and creative level designs, paving the way for future Nintendo titles as fans ponder why it wasn’t part of the console’s launch lineup, unlike Mario Kart World.
