🍄 Nintendo Switch 1 and 2 Pro controller stand / controller holder 🍄

This print brings a touch of the Mushroom Kingdom to your gaming setup. Designed with the Switch 2 Pro controller in mind, this stand is modelled after the iconic Super Mario warp pipe. It features the Switch logo tucked neatly inside the pipe for an extra bit of detail.

While it was built for the specific dimensions of the new hardware, it is backwards compatible with the original Switch Pro controller. Please note that the original controller will have a bit of "wiggle room" on either side, whereas the Switch 2 controller provides a much snugger fit due to its narrower grip spacing.

Two separate print profiles are included with this model: one for the standalone Warp Pipe stand, and an optional cartridge holder insert that fits inside to store your games. 

🔥 Tips before you start

Having a clean print bed and hot end(s) free from filament is essential in getting that crisp, clean look. Here's some tips on what to do to get the best print possible;

🧼 Cleaning

Clean your plate first, following your usual routine. Dish soap works best, clean and then rinse thoroughly, ensure the plate is dry and free of debris before putting back in the printer.

Leftover filament residue on your hot end can cause unwanted colour streaks, which will show very clearly against the white parts of the print. Please inspect your hot end before starting the print, if you spot any clumps or leftover filament, follow Bambu's recommended cleaning guide to remove.

🖨️ Printing setup

This is a very simple and quick print that requires no supports at all.

• Build plate: Any.
• Filament: PLA works perfectly. I used "Bambu Green" to get that authentic Warp Pipe look.
• Profiles: I have provided two profiles, one for the stand and an optional cartridge holder insert for extra functionality (holds up to 7 Switch 1 and 2 games).

🧰 Troubleshooting

Model Doesn’t Match Preview / Wrong Colours / Odd Layout / Dots instead of lines or shapes

If your model looks misaligned, missing colours, or prints incorrectly, please make sure you are using the supplied 3MF print profiles, not the raw STL or STEP files.

The 3MF files contain all the model specific tuning, including:

• Correct object positioning
• Colour allocations
• Line width settings
• Print specific adjustments (to ensure a smooth transition when the pipe flares outward).

To use them properly:

• Either click “Open in Bambu Studio” directly from MakerWorld,
• Or download the .3MF file and open it manually in Bambu Studio.

Avoid using the raw STL or STEP files unless you specifically want to rebuild your own profiles, they do not include the tuned print settings.
