You might remember in July of last year, designer and all-around tech wiz BigRig Creates managed to build the world’s largest working DS using a TV and McDonald’s touchpad. Well, just as the DS gradually evolved into the 3DS, BigRig has given his creation a dimension-adding upgrade.
From DS to 3DS
That’s right, the world’s largest DS has now become the world’s largest 3DS.
A certain number of additions were required of BigRig from his original build, namely, getting the huge device to run games in 3D. With a 3D TV and a unique mounting system consisting of various home supplies, this seems like it was quickly crossed off the list.
Incorporating Notable Features
But what about the 3DS’ other notable features? This wouldn’t be an accurate build without a giant Circle Pad and the central home button now, would it? Worry not, the upgrade incorporates these elements too.
The Circle Pad is particularly impressive to us, utilizing an old Android phone and a series of rubber bands to make the darn thing snap back into place just like it does on Nintendo’s innovative little console.

Gaming on the Massive Device
What’s more, this thing actually plays 3DS games. You get a taste of the massive device running Mario Kart 7, Ocarina of Time 3D, and Pokémon X.
