Reddit user u/Pjmonday shared images of his child’s room with a rather creative setup. A flat-screen TV mounted to the wall is just a bit too played out. So, why not turn it into a huge, oversized Nintendo Switch console. If you have a good eye, then you’ll also spot two distinct wallpapers in the background. The top is a bit easier to make out with clear Mario characters from Super Mario history. If you look below, then you’ll also spot Skylanders wallpaper. For those who don’t know, Skylanders is a spin-off of the Spyro the Dragon series by Activision. The game features figures that can turn into characters for the video game in a toys-to-life functionality.

The Skylanders figures are on display in this photo along with some amiibo figures from the Nintendo games library. All in all, this setup is pretty fantastic, even if you’re not a huge DIY kinda person. This Dad clearly put a lot of effort into the setup for their kid. If you’re an adult feeling jealous, then you’re not alone. Overall, a lot of fellow Reddit users expressed wanting this room for their former self, or current self for that matter.
Shoutout to u/Pjmonday for his hard work. Well done!
