"Chinese hardware enthusiast 小宁子 XNZ (or XNZ for short) looked at her collection of gaming consoles, realized she was constantly swapping cables and power supplies just to access different game libraries, and decided to do something about it. The result is the Ningtendo PXBOX 5, a custom-built system that combines PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch 2 hardware into a single triangular chassis that switches between all three platforms with a button press."
"XNZ stripped each console down to its motherboard and mounted them on three sides of a custom aluminum cooling block, inspired by the old trash can Mac Pro design. A single 250-watt power supply feeds everything, while a Phanteks fan at the bottom pushes air through the shared heatsink. Press the button on top and an Arduino board handles the switching logic, cycling through the three systems in about three seconds."
One custom system houses PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch 2 motherboards in a triangular aluminum chassis with a shared cooling block and single 250-watt power supply. A Phanteks fan pulls air through the central heatsink while an Arduino-based controller switches active systems in about three seconds. A top button toggles platforms and a front LED indicates PlayStation (blue), Xbox (green), or Switch 2 (red). Both Sony and Microsoft consoles are digital-only, so no disc drives are present. Users must close games before switching to prevent overloading the power supply.
