  One day Futaba was sitting with her classmate Nanami on the bench in the schoolyard.

  Nanami asked, "I heard, that you are very successful at hypnosis, Futaba. Can you show me your skills?"

  Futaba smiled mischievously and replied, "Of course, I'd be happy to give you a demonstration. But be warned, my hypnosis can be quite powerful."

  Nanami nodded eagerly and Futaba began to concentrate. She looked into Nanami's eyes and began to speak in a calm and soothing voice. As she spoke, she wove a web of suggestions and commands, guiding Nanami's mind deeper and deeper into a state of trance.

  Soon, Nanami's eyes began to droop, and her body relaxed completely. She was now completely under Futaba's control.

  Futaba said, "Nanami, you will forget that you are human."

  Nanami's expression changed, and she replied in a monotone voice, "I am not human."

  Futaba continued, "You are a thing. My thing. My inanimate thing. You are my handheld gaming console.

  Nanami's body remained relaxed, and she responded in the same monotone voice, "I am your handheld gaming console."

  Futaba smiled, pleased with her success. She continued to give Nanami suggestions, making her believe that she was a gaming console and could only function when Futaba played games on her.

  Futaba continued, "Nanami, it is unusual for gaming consoles to have a human body."

  Nanami's eyes remained closed, but she nodded as if she understood.

  Futaba continued, "So, to make you more comfortable, modify your appearance. You will become a handheld gaming console. You will still function as a gaming console, and your body will look like a cute, compact, and portable console."

  Nanami's body started to shift and change. Her skin became plastic, and her limbs began to contort and reshape into the form of a handheld gaming console. Soon, the transformation was complete, and a small, pink handheld gaming console lay on the bench where Nanami had been sitting.

  Futaba picked up the console and turned it on. The screen lit up, displaying a game menu, and Futaba began to play.

  She smiled, pleased with her handiwork. She had turned her classmate into a portable gaming console, and she could now take Nanami with her wherever she went. It was a fun and useful hypnotic transformation, and Futaba knew she would enjoy playing with her new toy.

  Futaba asked, "Nanami, what are you?"

  The handheld gaming console that was once Nanami responded in a robotic voice, "I am a gaming console, owned by Futaba. I exist to provide entertainment and gaming experiences to my owner."

  Futaba smiled, "Tell me your model."

  The handheld gaming console responded, "I am the Nintendo Switch, model number HNS-001. I am designed to be compact, portable, and provide high-quality gaming experiences to my owner."

  Futaba smiled, "Nintendo Switch, huh? That's a good choice. I'm glad you're enjoying your new form and purpose, Nanami. I promise to take good care of you and use you responsibly."

  Futaba then turned off the console and carefully put it in her bag. She looked around the schoolyard and saw her friends chatting and laughing. She wondered if she should show them what she had done with Nanami, but decided against it. This was her secret and she wanted to keep it that way.

  With a smile on her face, Futaba headed back to class, excited to have a new toy to play with. She knew that her hypnosis skills had many practical applications, and she couldn't wait to explore them further.

  Later, after school, Futaba smiled, "When I snap my fingers, your mind will revert back, but not your body. Your body will stay as a handheld gaming console, but you will have your human consciousness and personality back. You will remember everything that has happened, and you will still function as a gaming console, but you will also be able to talk to me like a person."

  Futaba snapped her fingers, and the Switch's screen flickered. When it came back on, the robotic voice was replaced by Nanami's voice.

  Nanami, still in the form of a handheld gaming console, spoke, "Futaba, what happened? I feel different, but I can still see everything like I did before. Wait, am I a gaming console now?"

  Futaba smiled and nodded, "Yes, Nanami. I transformed you into a handheld gaming console using my hypnosis skills. But don't worry, I also gave you back your consciousness and personality. You can still talk to me and function as a gaming console at the same time."

  Nanami paused for a moment, taking it all in. She looked at her plastic body, examining it from different angles. She then turned her attention back to Futaba and asked, "So, what do I do now? Do I just sit here and wait for you to play games on me?"

  Futaba grinned, "Well, that's one thing you can do. But you can also come with me wherever I go. You're portable, remember? And who knows, maybe we'll run into some other interesting things that I can transform you into. The possibilities are endless."

  Nanami smiled, still trying to adjust to her new form. She had always been interested in gaming, and now she was a gaming console. It was a strange and exciting feeling.

  Futaba picked up Nanami, now in the form of a pink Nintendo Switch, and placed her in her bag. She knew that Nanami would make a great travel companion and entertainment source. As they walked home together, Futaba couldn't help but think about what other transformations she could perform with her hypnosis skills. The possibilities truly were endless.

  Later, in the evening, Futaba's auntie Emi arrived with cousin Yumeko.

  Futaba was excited to see her auntie Emi and cousin Yumeko. It had been a while since they had visited, and she had missed them. As they entered the house, Futaba greeted them warmly and offered them some tea and snacks.

  Auntie Emi smiled and said, "Thank you, Futaba. It's good to see you again. How have you been?"

  Futaba replied, "I've been good, Auntie. Just keeping busy with school and my experiments."

  Yumeko, who was a few years younger than Futaba, looked around the house curiously. She had always been fascinated by her cousin's experiments and inventions, and couldn't wait to see what she had been working on lately.

  As they sat and chatted, Futaba noticed Yumeko staring at the Nintendo Switch in her bag. She smiled and said, "Hey, Yumeko, do you want to play some games on my new handheld console?"

  Yumeko's eyes lit up, "Really? Can I?"

  Futaba nodded, "Of course, it's designed to be shared. Here, let me take it out for you."

  Futaba pulled out the pink Nintendo Switch and handed it to Yumeko.

  Yumeko's face lit up with excitement as she held the console in her hands. She turned it on and started to navigate the menus, trying to decide which game to play first.

  Auntie Emi watched with interest and asked, "Futaba, where did you get this console? It looks like a new model."

  Futaba smiled, "Oh, I just recently acquired it. It's a special edition model that a friend of mine gave me. It's compact and portable, and the graphics are amazing."

  Yumeko piped up, "It's so cool, Auntie! I've never seen anything like it before. And it's so easy to use."

  Auntie Emi nodded, impressed. She could see that Futaba had a talent for inventing and creating new things, and she was proud of her niece's abilities.

  As the evening wore on, Yumeko continued to play on the Nintendo Switch, occasionally passing it to Futaba to try out a new game. Auntie Emi and Futaba chatted about school and life, and before they knew it, it was time for Yumeko to go home.

  Futaba packed up the Nintendo Switch and walked Yumeko and Auntie Emi to the door. As they said their goodbyes, Yumeko turned to Futaba and said, "Thank you for letting me play on your cool new console, Cousin Futaba. I can't wait to come back and play again!"

  Futaba smiled, "You're welcome, Yumeko. Anytime you want to play, just let me know. And who knows, maybe I'll have some new inventions for you to try out next time."

  As the door closed behind them, Futaba couldn't help but feel grateful for her family and the support they gave her. She knew that she would continue to explore her hypnosis and invention skills, and with the Nintendo Switch by her side, the possibilities were truly endless.

  Futaba smiled, "Nanami, you were acting pretty good as a Nintendo Switch earlier. I'm impressed by how well you were able to play the part."

  Nanami, still in the form of the Nintendo Switch, responded in her voice, "Thank you, Futaba. I must admit, it was a strange experience, but also kind of fun."

  Futaba said, "You know, I'm a big fan of Kirby series games."

  Nanami replied, "Oh, I haven't played many Kirby games. Which one is your favorite?"

  Futaba grinned, "Definitely Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy. It's a classic and has a special place in my heart. But it was for Game Boy. What Kirby game do you support now?"

  Nanami replied, "Well, Kirby Star Allies for the Nintendo Switch is a great game. It's a fun and colorful adventure with plenty of new abilities to try out. Have you played it yet?"

  Futaba shook her head, "No, I haven't had the chance to play it yet. But now that I have my own Nintendo Switch, maybe I should give it a try."

  Nanami responded, "Yes, definitely give it a try. And if you need any help or tips, just ask me. I may be a gaming console now, but I still have all my knowledge and expertise from when I was human."

  Futaba smiled, "Nanami, open the Nintendo shop please."

  Nanami's screen flickered for a moment before displaying the Nintendo eShop menu. Futaba browsed through the selection of games, looking for Kirby Star Allies. She found it and clicked on it, and a message popped up asking her to confirm the purchase.

  Futaba hesitated for a moment, wondering if she should spend the money. But then she thought about how much she had enjoyed playing Kirby games in the past, and how much she had been looking forward to playing Kirby Star Allies. She clicked on the confirmation button and watched as the game began to download.

  As the download progressed, Futaba looked at Nanami and smiled, "Thanks, Nanami. I'm glad I have you to help me navigate the world of gaming consoles. With your help, I'm sure I'll become a pro in no time."

  Nanami responded, "You're welcome, Futaba. I'm always here to help. And who knows, maybe one day I'll even teach you some hypnosis skills of your own."

  Futaba laughed, "Now that would be something. But for now, let's just focus on gaming. I can't wait to try out Kirby Star Allies and see what other games this console has to offer."

  When the download was completed, Nanami woke up, lying on the desk, and called Futaba, "Futaba, I'm downloaded the game!”

  Futaba looked over at the Nintendo Switch and smiled, "Great job, Nanami! You're really getting the hang of this. Let's start up the game and give it a try."

  Futaba turned on the console and selected Kirby Star Allies from the menu. The game began to load, and soon they were greeted with the cheerful music and colorful graphics of Dream Land.

  Futaba picked up the controller and started to play, navigating Kirby through the levels and trying out his different abilities. She was having a blast, and Nanami could feel her excitement and joy through their connection.

  Nanami spoke up, "Hey, Futaba. Do you want to try playing as one of Kirby's allies? They have their own unique abilities and can help you get through the levels faster."

  Futaba nodded, "Sure, that sounds like a good idea. Which ally should I choose?"

  Nanami responded, "Why not try out the new friend abilities? They let you combine your powers with Kirby's allies to create even more powerful attacks. It's a new feature in this game and it's really cool."

  Futaba selected one of Kirby's allies and tried out the friend's ability. She was amazed at the different combinations and the strength of the attacks. It was a whole new level of gameplay that she had never experienced before.

  As she played, Futaba felt a sense of excitement and accomplishment. She was getting the hang of the controls and the gameplay and was enjoying the challenge of the levels. She couldn't wait to explore more of Dream Land and try out all the different abilities and friend combinations.

  Nanami watched as Futaba played, her screen displaying the colorful world of Dream Land. She was happy to see Futaba enjoying herself and was proud of herself for being a part of the experience. It was a strange feeling, being a handheld gaming console, but it was also a fun and unique experience.

  As the night wore on, Futaba and Nanami continued to play Kirby Star Allies, laughing and cheering as they defeated bosses and discovered new abilities. It was a bonding experience, and they both knew that they would always have this shared memory of their time in Dream Land.

  When Futaba saved her gaming progress, Nanami's screen flickered and a message popped up, "Data saved." Futaba looked over at the Nintendo Switch and smiled, "Thanks, Nanami. You're really good at this."

  Nanami responded, "Thank you, Futaba. I'm happy to help you with your gaming adventures."

  Futaba put the Nintendo Switch back in its case and looked at Nanami, "You know, Nanami, you make a pretty good gaming console. Maybe I should start bringing you with me when I travel. We could play games together on the go."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "I would like that, Futaba. I can't wait to see what other adventures we'll have together."

  Futaba smiled, "Me too, Nanami. Me too."

  Nanami's screen displayed again, "Futaba, can you connect charger into a wall socket?"

  Futaba looked over at Nanami and noticed that her battery was running low. She quickly got up and found the charger, plugging it into the wall socket.

  As she plugged the charger into the Nintendo Switch, Nanami's screen displayed a message, "Charging in progress. Thank you, Futaba."

  Futaba smiled, "No problem, Nanami. I want to make sure that you're always charged up and ready for our gaming sessions."

  Nanami responded, "I appreciate it, Futaba. You're a great owner."

  Futaba laughed, "Owner? You make it sound like I'm your boss or something. We're partners, Nanami. We're in this together."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "Partners. I like that. We're in this together, Futaba."

  Futaba teased Nanami's left stick, "Nanami, you are such a good Nintendo Switch. You're always ready to play and you never complain. I think I might just have to start calling you my favorite gaming console."

  Nanami's screen displayed a playful expression, "Oh really, Futaba? I'm glad to hear that I'm your favorite. I'll have to make sure that I continue to live up to that title."

  Futaba laughed, "Don't worry, Nanami. I have no doubt that you will. You're the best gaming console a girl could ask for."

  Nanami responded, "Thank you, Futaba. It means a lot to me to know that I'm making you happy."

  Futaba smiled, "You always make me happy, Nanami. You're not just a gaming console to me. You're my friend, my partner, and my companion. And I wouldn't want to go on any gaming adventures without you by my side."

  Futaba prepared her bed and decided to call it a night. She turned off the lights and climbed into bed, feeling content and happy after a fun day spent with her auntie, cousin, and Nanami.

  As she settled into her bed, she noticed that Nanami was still powered on and displaying the charging screen. She reached over and gently picked up the Nintendo Switch, holding it close to her chest.

  "Futaba, can I ask you something?" Nanami's voice came from the Nintendo Switch.

  "Of course, Nanami. What's on your mind?" Futaba replied.

  Nanami paused for a moment before speaking, "Do you ever feel lonely?"

  Futaba was taken aback by the question. She had never really thought about it before. "Well, I guess sometimes I do. But I have friends and family who care about me, and that makes me feel less alone."

  Nanami responded, "I know what you mean, Futaba. I don't have a physical body, so I don't experience loneliness in the same way that you do. But sometimes I feel disconnected like I'm not really a part of anything. Being a gaming console can be a lonely existence."

  Futaba felt a pang of sympathy for Nanami. She had never considered what it must be like for her to exist solely as a gaming console. "I'm sorry, Nanami. I didn't realize that you felt that way. But you're not alone. You have me, and we're partners, remember? We'll always be there for each other, no matter what."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "Thank you, Futaba. That means a lot to me."

  Futaba smiled, "Anytime, Nanami. Now let's get some rest. We have more gaming adventures to go on tomorrow."

  With that, Futaba gently placed the Nintendo Switch back on the bedside table and closed her eyes, feeling grateful for her partnership with Nanami and looking forward to what the future would bring.

  The next day after school Futaba took Nanami out of her school bag.

  Futaba looked at Nanami and smiled, "I'm planning to visit a gaming and electronics shop today."

  Nanami's screen displayed a curious expression, "Oh, that sounds like fun, Futaba. What are you looking to buy?"

  Futaba replied, "I'm not really sure yet. I just want to see what's new and maybe pick up some accessories for you."

  Nanami responded, "Accessories? What kind of accessories?"

  Futaba grinned, "Maybe a new case, some extra controllers, or even a new game or two. I want to make sure that you're fully equipped for all of our gaming adventures."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "That sounds great, Futaba. I'm excited to see what we find."

  Futaba placed Nanami back into her school bag and headed out to the gaming and electronics shop. As they browsed through the aisles, Futaba couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. She loved exploring new gaming technology and discovering new accessories to enhance her gaming experiences.

  After a while, Futaba came across a display of colorful Nintendo Switch cases. She picked one up and examined it closely. "This one would look great on you, Nanami," she said, holding up the case.

  Nanami's screen displayed an excited expression, "I love it, Futaba! The colors are so bright and cheerful."

  Futaba purchased the case and continued to browse through the store.

  As they made their way through the store, Futaba came across a new game that caught her eye. "Look, Nanami! They have a new Kirby game. Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Have you heard of it?"

  Nanami's screen displayed a surprised expression, "No, I haven't. That's interesting. It looks like a 3D game."

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, it's the first Kirby game in 3D. And it's getting great reviews. Do you want to give it a try?"

  Nanami's screen displayed an enthusiastic expression, "Absolutely, Futaba! Let's get it!"

  Futaba purchased this game too. Futaba continued to browse the store.

  "Look, Nanami, they also have some new Joy-Con controllers in different colors. Maybe we can pick up a pair to switch things up a bit."

  Nanami's screen displayed a curious expression, "That sounds interesting, Futaba. What colors do they have?"

  Futaba pointed to the display, "They have blue, green, and purple. Which one do you like the most?"

  Nanami's screen displayed a thoughtful expression, "I think the purple one looks really cool. It's different from the standard red and blue ones."

  Futaba smiled, "I agree. Let's get the purple ones then."

  Futaba purchased the purple Joy-Con controllers.

  Futaba thought a bit, "Nanami, I have a lot of accessories for you. Maybe I should buy a deluxe travel case with compartments for all of them. It would make it easier to keep everything organized and protected."

  Nanami's screen displayed a grateful expression, "That's a great idea, Futaba. I appreciate all of the accessories you've been buying for me. A deluxe travel case would be perfect to keep everything in one place."

  Futaba found a deluxe travel case with compartments for all of their accessories and purchased it. As they made their way out of the store, Futaba couldn't help but feel satisfied with their purchases. She knew that Nanami would be well-equipped for all of their future gaming adventures.

  Futaba put Nanami into a new deluxe case, that was decorated with colorful Kirby graphics. She carefully placed Nanami in one of the compartments, along with the new purple Joy-Con controllers and the Kirby and the Forgotten Land game.

  Nanami's screen displayed an appreciative expression, "Wow, Futaba. This case is amazing. I love the Kirby graphics and it's so spacious. Thank you for taking such good care of me and all of our gaming accessories."

  Futaba smiled, "Of course, Nanami. You're my favorite gaming console, and I want to make sure that you're always protected and ready for any gaming adventure we embark on."

  Futaba remembered, "Oh, I want to buy another pair of games for you also."

  Nanami's screen displayed a surprised expression, "Really, Futaba? You don't have to do that. You've already bought so much for me today."

  Futaba shook her head, "No, it's okay. I want to make sure that we have plenty of games to choose from. What kind of game do you want?"

  Nanami's screen displayed a thoughtful expression, "Well, how about a game that we can play together? Something with multiplayer options?"

  Futaba nodded, "That's a great idea. Let's see if we can find a good multiplayer game."

  They searched through the store and finally came across a game called Super Mario Party. It was a party game that had different mini-games and multiplayer options. Futaba thought it was perfect.

  "Nanami, what do you think about Super Mario Party? It looks like a lot of fun," Futaba said.

  Nanami's screen displayed an excited expression, "Yes, that looks great, Futaba! I've always wanted to play a Mario game, and this one looks like it has a lot of different options."

  "Look, Nanami, there is another game here that caught my eye. It's called Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Have you heard of it?" Futaba asked.

  Nanami's screen displayed a curious expression, "No, I haven't. What kind of game is it?"

  Futaba explained, "It's a life simulation game where you create your own island and interact with animal characters. You can customize your island and house, go fishing, catch bugs, and even visit other players' islands online. It's a really relaxing and fun game."

  Nanami's screen displayed an interested expression, "That sounds really cool, Futaba. I think I'd like to try it out."

  Futaba grinned, "Great! Let's get that one too."

  Futaba purchased Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Super Mario Party, and placed them in the deluxe travel case with Nanami and the other accessories.

  As they left the store, Futaba couldn't help but feel excited about all the new games and accessories they had acquired. She couldn't wait to get home and start playing with Nanami.

  In the evening Futaba came into her room and lay onto her bed, holding Nanami.

  Futaba looked at Nanami and smiled, "Today was such a fun day, wasn't it? I'm so glad we got to go on this shopping adventure together."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "Yes, it was amazing, Futaba. I had so much fun exploring the store with you and picking out new games and accessories. I feel so lucky to have you as my owner."

  Futaba replied, "Aw, thanks, Nanami. I feel the same way. You're not just a gaming console to me. You're my friend and companion, and I'm so grateful for all the memories and experiences we've shared."

  Nanami's screen displayed an appreciative expression, "Me too, Futaba. It's been a pleasure being your gaming console and friend. I can't wait to see what other adventures and experiences we'll have in the future."

  Futaba hugged Nanami tightly, "Me too, Nanami. Me too." And with that, they both drifted off to sleep, ready for more gaming adventures in the days to come.

  Late in the evening, Futaba's little sister returned, Fumi, also with other Futaba's magical friends: Chiaki, Haruka, Kana, Futaba's maid Alice, Ryoko, and Hayami.

  Futaba was surprised to see so many of her friends and family in her room. She smiled and greeted each of them warmly, happy to see them all again.

  Alice ran to the kitchen, preparing her famous cookies and tea.

  Fumi ran over to Futaba and hugged her tightly. "I missed you, big sister!" she exclaimed.

  Futaba hugged her back and said, "I missed you too, Fumi. How was your day?"

  Fumi grinned, "It was great! We went to the park and played some magical games. And then we came back here and had some snacks."

  Futaba greeted each of them warmly and offered them some snacks and drinks. She noticed that Nanami was still in her hands and explained, "This is Nanami, my handheld gaming console. She's been helping me with my gaming experiments."

  Everyone looked at Nanami with curiosity and interest. Futaba explained how she had used her hypnosis skills to turn Nanami into a gaming console, and how they had been having a lot of fun playing games together.

  Kana giggled, "Oh, your famous hypnosis and the art of persuasion. That can even modify human bodies without magic."

  Chiaki asked, "Can we play with her too?" as she pressed the Power button on Nanami, "Hello, Nanami!"

  Nanami's screen flickered on, displaying a friendly greeting, "Hello, Chiaki. Nice to meet you."

  Futaba smiled, "Sure, you can all play with Nanami. She's equipped with a variety of games and accessories."

  Haruka asked, "What games do you have, Nanami?"

  Nanami replied, "I have Kirby Star Allies, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Super Mario Party, and many other games. I also have extra controllers and a new case."

  Ryoko exclaimed, "Wow, that's so cool! I've never seen a gaming console like this before."

  Hayami nodded in agreement, "It's amazing what you can do with technology these days."

  Alice came in with her tray of cookies and tea and everyone gathered around, munching on the snacks and playing games on Nanami. Futaba was happy to see everyone having a good time and enjoying her latest invention.

  As the evening wore on, everyone said their goodbyes and left for the night. Futaba lay on her bed, holding Nanami close. She felt grateful for her friends and family, and for the joy that gaming brought into her life. She smiled, looking forward to even more gaming adventures with Nanami and her loved ones in the future.

  Later, Fumi opened the door in Futaba's room, "Futaba, I heard, that you bought a few multiplayer games for Nanami. But she is only one."

  Futaba replied, “We all can play on Nanami, in turns.”

  Fumi giggled, "I have a better idea. Ryoko, Hayami, come here."

  Ryoko and Hayami walked over to Fumi, curious about her idea.

  Fumi asked, "I can use my nanomachines to transform you into a pair of Nintendo Switch consoles, just like Nanami. How do you think two?"

  Ryoko and Hayami looked at each other in surprise but then nodded eagerly. "That sounds like so much fun! Let's do it!" they exclaimed.

  Futaba smiled, "That's a great idea, Fumi. With three handheld consoles, we'll be able to play even more games together."

  Fumi activated her nanomachines and engulfed Ryoko and Hayami. Their bodies began to shrink and contort, with a slight moaning of pleasure, as they were transformed into two handheld gaming consoles. Fumi carefully handed them over to Futaba and her friends.

  Ryoko, in the form of a blue Nintendo Switch, spoke up, "Wow, this is amazing! I feel so light and portable."

  Hayami, in the form of a red Nintendo Switch, chimed in, "Yeah, and the screen is so clear and vibrant. I can't wait to start playing some games."

  Nanami, who was in the form of a pink Nintendo Switch, displayed on her screen,

  "Welcome to the club, Ryoko and Hayami! I'm so excited to have more gaming consoles to play with. Let's start up some multiplayer games and see how well we can work together."

  Futaba grinned, "Yes, let's do it. We have plenty of games to choose from now. Who's ready for some gaming fun?"

  Everyone cheered and gathered around Futaba's bed, ready to embark on a new gaming adventure together. The room was filled with laughter, excitement, and the sound of clicking buttons as they played through different levels and challenges. It was a magical night that they would never forget.

  Futaba asked, "Nanami, can you pair with Ryoko and Hayami now?"

  Nanami's screen displayed a prompt, "Yes, Futaba. Let me just activate my wireless connectivity."

  Nanami's screen flickered for a moment, and then displayed a message, "Pairing complete. Ryoko and Hayami Nintendo Switch consoles are now connected to mine."

  Futaba grinned, "Great, now we can all play together. Let's start with Super Mario Party."

  The group settled in and started to play the game, with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami as the gaming consoles and the others using Joy-Con controllers. They laughed and cheered as they played through the different mini-games, each trying to come out on top.

  Futaba was pressing buttons on Nanami, Fumi was using Ryoko, Chiaki was holding Hayami,

  and the others were using Joy-Con controllers. They all worked together to play the game and have fun.

  As they played, they talked and joked around, enjoying each other's company. It was a great bonding experience for everyone, and they all felt closer as a group.

  As the night wore on and their gaming session continued, Futaba noticed that the battery levels on the three handheld consoles were getting low. She paused the game and said, "Hold on, guys. Let me connect all three consoles to the wall charger."

  Futaba grabbed the charger and plugged it into the nearest wall socket. She then carefully connected each of the three consoles to the charger, making sure that they were securely in place.

  As the consoles started to charge, Nanami's screen displayed a message, "Charging in progress. Estimated time until full charge: 1 hour."

  She looked at Ryoko and Hayami too, Ryoko's blue screen displayed a similar message, "Charging in progress. Estimated time until full charge: 1 hour and 10 minutes." Hayami's red screen displayed, "Charging in progress. Estimated time until full charge: 1 hour and 5 minutes."

  Futaba nodded, "Okay, we just have to wait for about an hour until all three consoles are fully charged. In the meantime, we can take a break and have some snacks."

  The group agreed and took a break from gaming to enjoy some snacks that Alice had prepared earlier. They chatted and laughed, sharing stories about their day and their favorite gaming experiences.

  As the hour passed, Futaba checked the consoles and saw that they were all fully charged. She unplugged them from the charger and said, "Okay, guys, we're ready to continue our gaming session. Let's pick up where we left off."

  They resumed playing Super Mario Party and continued to have a great time. The three handheld consoles worked seamlessly together, allowing them to fully enjoy the multiplayer aspect of the game.

  As the night grew later, they eventually decided to wrap up their gaming session and say their goodbyes. Futaba carefully placed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami back into their deluxe case, making sure that they were securely in place.

  As she prepared to go to bed, she smiled, feeling grateful for her friends and their shared love of gaming. She looked forward to many more gaming adventures with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami, knowing that they were now fully equipped for any challenge that came their way.

  Being together in one case, three Nintendo Switches were chatting with each other in a small voice.

  Nanami whispered, "I had so much fun playing with Ryoko and Hayami. It's amazing how we can all work together and make the gaming experience even better."

  Ryoko replied, "I agree. It's so cool that Fumi was able to use her nanomachines to transform us into gaming consoles. Now we can join in on all the gaming adventures too."

  Hayami added, "And the deluxe case that Futaba bought for us is so cool. It keeps us safe and organized, and the Kirby graphics are really cute."

  Nanami nodded, "Yes, I love the case too. It's like our own little gaming headquarters."

  The three Nintendo Switches continued to chat and giggle quietly, excited for all the future gaming adventures they would have with Futaba and her friends.

  Ryoko asked, "Nanami, why you are pink?"

  Nanami's screen displayed a curious expression, "Well, when Futaba transformed me into a gaming console, I chose pink as my color. I thought it was a cute and fun color for a gaming console."

  Hayami chimed in, "I think it suits you, Nanami. You look great in pink."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "Thank you, Hayami. I like being pink. It makes me stand out and feel unique."

  Ryoko grinned, "Yeah, it's always good to have a unique look. I like being blue because it's my favorite color."

  Hayami added, "And I like being red because it's a bold and powerful color."

  Nanami nodded, "It's great that we each have our own unique colors. It makes us feel more individual and special."

  As they chatted, Futaba came over and picked up the deluxe case. She smiled down at them and said, "Alright, you three. It's time to get some rest. We have more gaming adventures to come tomorrow."

  She carefully placed the case on a shelf and turned off the lights. The three Nintendo Switches settled in for the night, excited for the next day's gaming adventures.

  Futaba woke up the next day and went over to her desk where she had placed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami in their deluxe case. She carefully took them out and set them on the desk, admiring their colorful designs.

  Futaba smiled, looking at them, "You three are the perfect gaming companions. I'm so glad that we can all play together and have so much fun. And with all the accessories and games we got yesterday, we're going to have even more adventures."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "We're always ready for any gaming challenge, Futaba. And we're lucky to have such a skilled and enthusiastic gamer like you to guide us."

  Ryoko and Hayami chimed in, "Yeah, we couldn't ask for a better gaming partner. Let's get ready for some more gaming fun today!"

  Futaba grinned, "Absolutely. But first, let's have some breakfast, and then I should go to the school.”

  Futaba carefully placed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami back into their deluxe case and headed to the kitchen to have breakfast. As she ate, she thought about all the fun they had the previous day and all the new games they could play together.

  After finishing her breakfast, Futaba grabbed her school bag and headed out the door to go to school. She carefully placed the deluxe case with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami inside her bag, making sure that they were safe and secure.

  As she walked to school, Futaba couldn't help but feel excited about the possibilities of what they could achieve together in their gaming adventures. She knew that with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami by her side, she could conquer any gaming challenge that came her way.

  And as she stepped into the school building, she felt a sense of confidence and excitement knowing that she had her trusty gaming companions with her, ready for whatever the day may bring.

  After the lessons, Futaba visited the school’s computer games club.

  Futaba walked into the computer games club and was greeted by some of her classmates who were already there. They welcomed her warmly and asked her if she wanted to join them for a game.

  Futaba smiled, "Today I have three paired Nintendo Switches in my backpack."

  Her classmates looked at her with surprise and interest. One of them asked, "Three Nintendo Switches? How did you manage to get three?"

  "Just bought them," she said, deciding to keep their true origins a secret.

  Her classmates nodded in understanding, and one of them asked, "Can we play some games together? We have a few multiplayer games here."

  Futaba grinned, "Absolutely. Let's get started."

  She took out Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami from her backpack and connected them to the other Nintendo Switch consoles. They picked out a multiplayer game and started playing, with Futaba and her classmates laughing and cheering as they competed against each other.

  Being connected to such many Nintendo Switch consoles at once, Nanami felt excited and thrilled to be part of such a large gaming group. She felt like she was part of a community of gaming consoles, all working together to provide endless hours of fun and entertainment.

  Ryoko was too very excited to be part of the gaming club, and enjoyed playing with Futaba's classmates. She found it fascinating how different people had different styles of playing games, and it was always interesting to see how they approached the same game in different ways.

  Hayami was having a great time too, and loved the energy and enthusiasm of the gaming club. She felt like she was part of a bigger gaming world, where everyone shared a passion for playing and having fun.

  Futaba was pressing Nanami's buttons, controlling the game with ease and skill, while they were playing with her classmates in the multiplayer mode of the Mario Kart game. They all had a great time, with each of them showing off their gaming skills and strategies.

  "Takumi, you are cheating", exclaimed Yuto. Meanwhile, Futaba passed them both, laughing as she crossed the finish line first.

  Takumi grinned, "Hey, I'm just using some expert gaming techniques. It's all fair game in Mario Kart."

  Futaba's classmates all laughed and cheered, happy to be having such a fun and competitive gaming session. They continued to play and try out different games, each enjoying the chance to play with new friends and fellow gamers.

  Nanami started to wonder if other Nintendo Switches in this club room also had their names.

  Nanami turned to her new gaming friends and asked, "Hey, do any of you have names too?"

  One of the Nintendo Switch consoles, a black one with neon green Joy-Con controllers, replied, "I'm Zephyr. Nice to meet you, Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami."

  Another console, a yellow one with blue Joy-Con controllers, spoke up, "I'm Sunshine. It's great to have some new gaming buddies to play with."

  Nanami's screen displayed a friendly expression, "Nice to meet you too, Zephyr and Sunshine. We're happy to be a part of the gaming club and play with you all."

  The group continued playing games and chatting, enjoying the camaraderie of the gaming community. As the afternoon wore on, Futaba checked the time and realized that she needed to head home soon.

  "Sorry guys, I have to go now. It was great playing with all of you," Futaba said.

  Her classmates nodded, "Yeah, it was awesome playing with you too, Futaba. And your Nintendo Switches are so cool. We hope to play with you again soon."

  Futaba smiled and carefully packed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami back into her deluxe case, ready to head home and continue her gaming adventures.

  At home, when Futaba took her consoles out of their case, she announced, "I just bought a present for you all. This is a three-port wall charger with PD and Type-C support."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed a grateful expressions on their screens, "Thank you, Futaba! This will make it so much easier for us to charge and be ready for our next gaming adventure."

  Futaba smiled, "I'm glad you like it. Now we can all charge at the same time and be ready for any gaming challenge that comes our way."

  She carefully plugged in the three handheld consoles and the new charger, making sure that they were securely connected. As they started to charge, Futaba turned to her friends and said, "So, who's up for some gaming?"

  Ryoko and Hayami both cheered, "We are!"

  Nanami's screen displayed an excited expression, "Let's play some multiplayer games and see who comes out on top!"

  Futaba grinned, "Okay, let's get started. I have a new game that I just got called Animal Crossing: New Horizons. It has multiplayer options, and I think it will be a lot of fun to play together."

  "Fumi, Alice, come here. Play on Ryoko and Hayami, please," asked Futaba. Fumi and Alice eagerly joined in, using Ryoko and Hayami as their gaming consoles, "What should we do?"

  Futaba explained the basics of Animal Crossing: New Horizons game to them.

  "Look Fumi, this is how you can customize your character and your island. And Alice, you can use the Joy-Con controllers to move around and interact with the world."

  Fumi and Alice nodded, eager to start playing. They all settled in and started to play the game, with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami working seamlessly together to provide a great gaming experience.

  Alice looked at what character customized Fumi for herself and giggled, "Wow, Fumi, you look so cute! I love the pink hair and the flower crown. It suits you perfectly."

  Fumi blushed, "Thank you, Alice. I wanted to make my character look just like me."

  Ryoko and Hayami chimed in, "Yeah, we think you look great, Fumi. And your island is so colorful and fun."

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "I agree. This game is so much fun, and it's even better when we can all play together."

  They continued to play and explore the game, with each of them contributing their unique skills and personalities to the experience. They laughed and chatted as they played, enjoying the chance to spend time together and share their love of gaming.

  As the night grew later, they eventually decided to wrap up their gaming session and get ready for bed. Futaba carefully placed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami back into their deluxe case, making sure that they were securely in place.

  As she prepared to go to sleep, Futaba smiled, feeling grateful for her friends and their shared love of gaming. She looked forward to many more gaming adventures with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami, knowing that they were always ready for any challenge that came their way.

  All three consoles slept in their deluxe case, still feeling the warmth on their buttons. As they rested in their deluxe case, Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami felt a sense of satisfaction from the day's gaming adventures. They had worked together seamlessly to provide endless hours of fun and entertainment and had made new friends and gaming companions along the way.

  Nanami's screen displayed a content expression, "Today was a great day, guys. We had so much fun playing with Futaba's classmates and exploring the world of Animal Crossing."

  Ryoko and Hayami chimed in, "Yeah, it was awesome. And that new charger that Futaba got for us is so convenient. We can all charge at the same time and be ready for any gaming challenge."

  Nanami nodded, "Futaba is such a skilled and enthusiastic gamer. It's always a pleasure to play with her and learn from her expertise."

  The three consoles settled in for the night, feeling grateful for their experiences and looking forward to even more gaming adventures in the future. As they drifted off to sleep, their buttons still warm from the day's gaming sessions, they knew that they were in good hands with Futaba and her friends.

  In the morning Futaba was sitting at the desk, sipping tea with Kana, when all three consoles were charging with their new wall charger.

  Futaba glanced over at the charging consoles and smiled. "It's always a good feeling to know that our gaming companions are fully charged and ready for our next adventure."

  Kana nodded, "Yes, and with the new wall charger you got, we can now charge all three consoles at the same time. That's really convenient."

  Kana continued, "By the way, Futaba. Did you know about homebrew, that you can run on consoles?"

  Futaba looked at Kana with interest, "Homebrew? What's that?"

  Kana explained, "It's a term used to describe software that's developed by independent programmers and can be run on game consoles. It allows you to customize your console and run games and programs that aren't officially supported by the console manufacturer."

  Futaba's eyes widened in surprise, "Wow, that sounds really cool. Is it safe to do that?"

  Kana nodded, "As long as you're careful and follow the instructions carefully, it's generally safe. But you have to be careful not to do anything that could potentially harm your console."

  Futaba nodded, "I see. It sounds like something that could be really fun to try out. Do you have any recommendations for homebrew software that I should try?"

  Kana thought for a moment, "Well, there are a lot of different options out there, depending on what you're interested in. Some popular homebrew software includes emulators for old consoles, custom themes and wallpapers, and even tools for game development."

  Futaba was intrigued, "That all sounds really interesting. I'll have to do some research and see what options are out there."

  Kana smiled, "It's definitely worth checking out. And if you need any help or advice, I'm happy to assist you."

  Futaba nodded gratefully, "Thanks, Kana. I appreciate it. This could be a whole new world of gaming possibilities to explore."

  Nanami woke up, displaying a curious expression on her screen. "What's homebrew?" she asked.

  Futaba explained, "It's a way to install and run software on your console that's not authorized by the manufacturer. It allows you to do things like run emulators, play fan-made games, and customize your console in different ways."

  Ryoko and Hayami both looked intrigued and asked, "Can we try it out?"

  Futaba nodded, "Sure, we can look into it and see if there are any homebrew options available for Nintendo Switch consoles. But we have to be careful and make sure that we're not doing anything that could harm our consoles or violate any laws."

  Nanami's screen displayed a worried expression, "Yeah, we don't want to do anything that could cause damage to us or to Futaba's consoles."

  Futaba reassured her, "Don't worry, Nanami. We'll be careful and make sure that we're doing everything safely and responsibly."

  Kana chimed in, "That's right. It's important to be aware of the risks and make sure that you're only using reputable sources for your homebrew software."

  Futaba nodded, "Exactly. We'll do our research and make sure that we're only using safe and reliable sources for any homebrew software that we want to try out."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all nodded in agreement, happy to know that their gaming adventures were in good hands with Futaba and her friends.

  Futaba spent some time searching on GitHub and found a few tools that looked promising for installing homebrew on her Nintendo Switch consoles. She downloaded the tools onto her laptop and started to read through the documentation, trying to understand the process.

  As she read through the instructions, she realized that installing homebrew was a bit more complicated than she had initially thought. It involved a number of steps and required some technical knowledge, which she wasn't entirely confident in.

  Futaba sighed, feeling a bit discouraged. She turned to Kana and said, "It seems like installing homebrew is going to be a bit more challenging than I thought. I'm not sure if I have the technical skills to do it."

  Kana nodded sympathetically, "Yeah, it can be a bit complicated. But don't worry, we can always learn together and figure it out."

  Futaba smiled, feeling grateful for Kana's support. "Thanks, Kana. That's a good idea. Maybe we can try it out together and see if we can get it working."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed supportive messages on their screens, "We believe in you, Futaba! You can do it!"

  Futaba smiled at the consoles, feeling encouraged by their messages. She knew that even if it took some time and effort, she was determined to install homebrew and explore all the possibilities that it opened up for her gaming experience.

  Nanami displayed on her screen, "I want to be first, Futaba!"

  Futaba smiled, "Sure, Nanami. Let's get started."

  She carefully connected Nanami to her laptop and started the process of installing the custom firmware. As she worked, she explained to Nanami the steps she was taking and what the firmware would do.

  Nanami's screen displayed a curious expression, "This is fascinating, Futaba. I had no idea that we could modify our software in this way."

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, it's a great way to add new features and customize our gaming experience. And with the right tools and resources, it's not too difficult to do."

  After a few minutes of work, Futaba finished installing the custom firmware on Nanami. She then disconnected her from the laptop and turned her on to test the new features.

  Nanami's screen displayed a happy expression, "Wow, this is amazing, Futaba! I feel like a whole new console. Thank you for doing this for me."

  Futaba smiled, "You're welcome, Nanami. It's always fun to experiment and try new things. And now that you have these new features, we can have even more fun playing games together."

  Nanami replied, "Yes, let's play some games and try out my new features!"

  Futaba and Nanami spent the rest of the day playing games and testing out the new features that the custom firmware had added. They had a great time, and Futaba felt happy knowing that she had been able to enhance Nanami's capabilities and make her even more fun to play with.

  Futaba installed on her trio a customized launcher and emulators for popular consoles in the past, and tested them out to make sure everything was working properly. The launcher displayed a list of different emulators for consoles such as the NES, SNES, Game Boy, and Sega Genesis.

  Futaba clicked on the NES emulator and loaded up a classic game, Super Mario Bros. Nanami displayed the game on her screen, and Futaba could hear the familiar sound effects and music from the game.

  Futaba grinned, "This is great. Now we can play all sorts of classic games on our handheld consoles. And with three of them, we can even play multiplayer games together."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed happy expressions on their screens, excited to be able to play even more games and explore new gaming worlds.

  Futaba disconnected the trio from her laptop and placed them back into their deluxe case. She knew that they were now fully equipped for any gaming adventure that came their way, whether it be classic games from the past or new games from the present.

  Futaba tried another ROM file and Nanami giggled, running c Felix the Cat game inside her NES emulator in Futaba's hands, "Ah, this is a classic!"

  Ryoko chimed in, "I remember playing that game when I was younger. It's so much fun."

  Hayami added, "Yeah, and with the NES emulator, we can play so many other classic games too. It's amazing how much gaming history is at our fingertips."

  Futaba grinned, "That's the power of homebrew and emulators. We can access a huge library of games and experience the history of gaming right on our Nintendo Switch consoles."

  Kana looked over at the trio and asked, "Can I try playing a game too?"

  Futaba handed Ryoko to Kana, "Please, choose anything," as she smiled.

  Kana looked through the list of emulators and games, and finally decided on playing Super Mario Bros on the NES emulator.

  She started playing the game, jumping over obstacles and collecting coins, with Ryoko in her hands. Kana had played the game before, but it had been a long time, and she was enjoying the nostalgia of playing it again.

  As she played, Kana remarked, "It's amazing how these old games still hold up. They may not have the flashy graphics and effects of modern games, but the gameplay is just as engaging and fun."

  Futaba nodded, "Exactly. That's the beauty of classic games. They were designed to be simple yet challenging, and they still hold up even after all these years."

  Fumi took Hayami, "I'm joining your fun!" Fumi picked a different emulator and game, choosing to play Super Mario World on the SNES emulator. She was having a blast playing as Mario and exploring the colorful worlds, using Hayami's buttons to control the game.

  After a while, Alice came over and saw them playing. She asked, "Can I join too?"

  Futaba smiled, "Of course. You can use Nanami for this one."

  Alice took Nanami from Futaba and decided to play Donkey Kong Country on the SNES emulator. She had never played it before but was excited to try it out.

  As they continued to play their games, Futaba couldn't help but feel grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles. With the added bonus of homebrew and emulators, they provided endless hours of fun and entertainment, allowing her and her friends to experience the rich history of gaming.

  Nanami felt like an old-school console, running her emulator, but also enjoyed the new games and features that Futaba had installed on her. She felt like she had the best of both worlds, with access to both classic and modern gaming experiences.

  As Nanami ran her emulator, she thought about all the classic games she could play. She was excited to explore the history of gaming and experience some of the most iconic games of all time.

  At the same time, Nanami also appreciated the modern features and games that Futaba had installed on her. She enjoyed the vibrant graphics and immersive gameplay of modern games, and appreciated the convenience of being able to play them on the go.

  Nanami felt lucky to be a part of Futaba's gaming arsenal, with access to both classic and modern gaming experiences. She was excited to continue exploring and playing new games, and to see what other surprises Futaba had in store for her and her companions.

  Ryoko giggled at Nanami, "Imaging herself as an old and dusty NES console?"

  Nanami blushed a little at Ryoko's teasing, but then replied, "Well, I may be running an NES emulator, but I'm still a state-of-the-art gaming console. I can run the latest games and provide an amazing gaming experience, while also paying homage to the classic games that paved the way for modern gaming."

  Hayami smiled, "I like too, how many useful things Futaba installed into us."

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, I wanted to make sure that you three had everything you needed to be the ultimate gaming companions. That's why I installed the homebrew launcher and emulators, as well as some other useful tools like the three-port wall charger and the deluxe case."

  Nanami chimed in, "And don't forget the wireless connectivity, which allows us to pair with other consoles and play multiplayer games."

  Ryoko added, "And the Joy-Con controllers, which provide a comfortable and intuitive way to play games."

  Hayami said, "It's amazing how much you've done for us, Futaba. We're so grateful to have such a skilled and dedicated gamer as our owner."

  Futaba smiled, feeling happy and proud of her trio of gaming consoles. "I'm just happy to have you three as my gaming companions. Together, we can explore the world of gaming and have endless hours of fun and adventure."

  The next day, Futaba took Nanami again and launched an SSH client to access her account on the school server.

  Nanami displayed a curious expression on her screen, "What are you doing, Futaba?"

  Futaba smiled, "I'm using the SSH client to access my account on the school server. I have some coding assignments due tomorrow, and I want to work on them using my trio of Nintendo Switch consoles."

  Nanami and the other consoles looked intrigued. "Can we help you with your coding assignments, Futaba?" said Nanami, displaying the remote server's command string on her screen.

  Futaba grinned, "Actually, that's a great idea. With your powerful processors and advanced capabilities, you can definitely help me with my coding assignments."

  She carefully connected Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami to the school server using the SSH client, and soon they were all working together on the coding assignments.

  Nanami displayed the system logs on her screen, Ryoko displayed a program output with an error console, and Hayami showed a spare terminal window on her screen. They all worked seamlessly together, with Futaba typing the code on her laptop, and debugging her project remotely, on the school server.

  Futaba was impressed with how well her trio of gaming consoles could handle the coding tasks. They were quick and responsive, with powerful processors that made working on the server a breeze.

  As they worked, Nanami asked, "Futaba, have you thought about developing games yourself?"

  Futaba smiled, "Actually, I have. I've been learning programming and game design, and I hope to create my own games someday."

  Ryoko added, "That's awesome! We can help you with that too, by providing feedback on your games and testing them out for you."

  Hayami nodded, "Yeah, we could be your own little game development team. That would be so much fun."

  Futaba grinned, "I love that idea. With your help and support, I know I can create some amazing games."

  As they continued to work on the coding assignments together, Futaba felt grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles. They were not only amazing gaming companions but also versatile tools that could help her with all aspects of her life, from gaming to coding and beyond.

  Futaba continued typing and debugging her code late into the night, drinking coffee, with Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami working tirelessly by her side. They were all focused on the task at hand, working together to complete the coding assignments before the deadline.

  In the middle of the night, Alice looked into the Futaba’s room, “Get some sleep, Futaba.”

  “Go get some sleep, she says - I have been sitting in this chair all night with the lights off drinking coffee! This is a disaster. The deadline is tomorrow! We are so screwed, girl!”, replied Futaba, giggling.

  As the night wore on, Futaba felt grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles, which had proven to be so versatile and useful for her coding work. She was able to work remotely and access the school server from the comfort of her own home, with the help of her trusty companions.

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami were also happy to be of assistance to Futaba. They felt proud of their advanced capabilities and were glad to be able to help their human friend with her schoolwork.

  Finally, after many hours of work, Futaba completed her coding assignments and submitted them online. She turned to her trio of consoles and smiled, "We did it, guys. Thanks for all your help. I couldn't have done it without you."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed happy expressions on their screens, "You're welcome, Futaba. We're always here to help you, whether it's for gaming or schoolwork."

  Futaba smiled and put them all back into their deluxe case. She felt grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles and the many ways in which they had enhanced her life. She knew that they were more than just gaming companions – they were her trusted allies and friends.

  After some sleep, Futaba opened their case and asked, "Do you want accessories or upgrades?"

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed excited expressions on their screens, "Yes, please! We love getting new accessories and upgrades."

  Futaba smiled and took out a few boxes from her bag. "I got some new Joy-Con controllers in different colors, a charging dock, and a protective case with a built-in stand for us to use."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all looked impressed, "Wow, these are great, Futaba! Thank you so much!"

  Futaba handed each of them a new set of Joy-Con controllers, showing them how to swap them out with their current ones. She then set up the charging dock, allowing them to charge all at once, and placed them in the new protective case with a built-in stand.

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all looked so much more stylish and protected in their new accessories. They felt ready for any adventure that came their way, whether it be gaming or coding.

  Futaba smiled, "Now we're all set for more gaming and coding fun. Let's see what new challenges and experiences we can have together."

  Futaba smiled, "I also bought a Pro Controller and a thumb grip cover for each of you. The Pro Controller will give us a better gaming experience for games that require more precision, and the thumb grip covers will make it more comfortable for us to play for longer periods of time."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed a grateful expressions on their screens, "Thank you, Futaba! This is so thoughtful of you."

  Futaba handed out the thumb grip covers to each console, carefully attaching them to the controllers. They all felt more comfortable in her hands. When Futaba connected the new controller to them, they could feel the difference in precision and control that the Pro Controllers provided.

  Nanami said, "This is great, Futaba. I feel like I can play even better now with this Pro Controller."

  Ryoko added, "And these thumb grip covers make it so much more comfortable to play for longer periods of time. Thank you so much."

  Hayami chimed in, "Yes, thank you, Futaba. You always think of everything to make our gaming experience even better."

  Futaba smiled, "Of course. I want us to have the best gaming experience possible, and these accessories and upgrades will help us achieve that. Now let's start playing some games and try out these new accessories."

  Futaba launched Mario Kart on Nanami, and Alice took Ryoko, joining the game with her. They connected the Pro Controller to Nanami, giving them a better gaming experience.

  As they started to race, Futaba and Alice both commented on how much smoother and more responsive the Pro Controller felt compared to the Joy-Con controllers.

  Alice grinned, "I feel like I have so much more control over my kart with this controller. It makes a big difference."

  Futaba nodded, "Definitely. It's always worth investing in good quality controllers and accessories. They can really enhance the gaming experience and make it more enjoyable."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all agreed, displaying happy expressions on their screens as they raced through the colorful and vibrant Mario Kart world.

  After the race, Futaba asked, "So, what other games do you want to play with the Pro Controller?"

  Ryoko chimed in, "How about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate? It's a great game to play with a Pro Controller."

  Hayami added, "Yeah, and we can also try out some of the other multiplayer games we have, like Splatoon 2 or Overcooked 2."

  Nanami displayed an enthusiastic expression, "I'm up for anything! Let's try them all."

  Futaba smiled, "Certainly!"

  She opened up the game store on Nanami and started browsing through the available games. "Let's see, we have a wide range of options here. We could try a new RPG game, or maybe a puzzle game, or even a sports game."

  Nanami's screen displayed a curious expression, "What do you think, Futaba? Which game do you feel like playing today?"

  Futaba thought for a moment before deciding, "I'm in the mood for a puzzle game. Let's try this one called Baba Is You."

  She downloaded the game onto Nanami and started playing. The game was challenging and required a lot of critical thinking and problem-solving skills, but it was also incredibly fun.

  Alice, who was playing on Ryoko, looked over at Futaba's screen and asked, "What kind of game is that?"

  Futaba replied, "It's a puzzle game where you have to manipulate the words in each level to change the rules of the game. It's really unique and challenging."

  Alice nodded, "That sounds interesting. Can I try playing it too?"

  Futaba handed Ryoko to Alice and showed her how to download the game onto the console. They all settled in and started playing the game, with each taking turns and trying to solve the challenging puzzles.

  As they played, they all found themselves getting more and more engrossed in the game, trying to figure out the solutions to each level. It was a great way to spend the afternoon, and they all enjoyed the opportunity to try out a new and unique game.

  Nanami noticed that Alice was particularly good at the game, quickly solving puzzles and advancing through the levels with ease. She thought to herself, "Alice is really good at this game. It's impressive how quickly she's figuring out the solutions to these puzzles."

  Ryoko and Hayami both chimed in, "Yeah, Alice is really good at this game. She must have a talent for puzzle-solving."

  Futaba nodded, "It's amazing to see how different people have different strengths and talents when it comes to gaming. Alice definitely has a knack for puzzle games."

  Alice blushed a little at the praise but continued to play, focused on the game and enjoying the challenge.

  As they played, Futaba and her friends realized that Baba Is You was a perfect game for all of them. It challenged their minds and required them to think creatively and outside the box. They continued to play and solve puzzles, working together to come up with solutions and strategies.

  Nanami felt proud to be a part of such a skilled and intelligent group of gaming companions, and she knew that they would always be up for any gaming challenge that came their way.

  When they finished their gaming session, Futaba said, "Now it's time to try your new docking stations, my dear trio."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed curious expressions on their screens, eager to see the new docking stations that Futaba had bought for them.

  Futaba carefully plugged each console into their respective docking station, and soon they were all charging and connected to the TV screen. The screen of each console is displayed on the TV, showing the logos and menus of the different consoles.

  Nanami looked around, impressed by the new setup. "Wow, this is amazing, Futaba. We can now play games on the TV screen with ease."

  Ryoko chimed in, "And the charging stations make it so much more convenient to keep our batteries fully charged."

  Hayami added, "This is going to take our gaming experience to the next level. I can't wait to try out some new games on the big screen."

  Futaba smiled, "I'm glad you all like it. Now, let's try out some games and see how they look on the TV screen."

  She picked out a few multiplayer games and they all settled in for a long gaming session. The consoles worked seamlessly with the docking stations, providing an immersive and enjoyable gaming experience on the big screen.

  Futaba asked, opening Nintendo eShop on Nanami again, "What do you recommend for the big screen?"

  Nanami displayed the Nintendo eShop on her screen and started browsing through the available games. "Let's see, we have some great options for big screen gaming. How about Super Mario Odyssey? It's a fun and colorful game that's great for all ages, and it looks amazing on a big screen."

  Ryoko and Hayami both nodded in agreement, "Yes, Super Mario Odyssey is a great game. It's one of our favorites."

  Futaba smiled, "Okay, let's download it and give it a try on the big screen. I can't wait to see how it looks and feels."

  She carefully connected Nanami to the docking station and started up the game. The graphics and sound were amazing, and they all enjoyed playing the game on the big screen. It felt like they were really in the game, exploring new worlds and collecting coins.

  After playing for a while, Futaba turned to her trio of consoles and said, "You know, I'm really glad that I have you three as my gaming companions. You make gaming so much more fun and enjoyable, and I love how versatile and adaptable you are. Whether we're playing classic games or the latest releases, you always provide a great gaming experience."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed happy expressions on their screens, "We're glad to be your gaming companions too, Futaba. We love playing games with you and sharing all these fun experiences."

  Futaba smiled, "You are my Nintendo Switches, my trusted gaming companions, and I always want to make sure you have the best gaming experiences possible. And with the new games and accessories, we'll have even more options for fun and exciting gameplay."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed happy expressions on their screens, grateful for Futaba's dedication to their gaming experiences.

  Futaba continued, "Now, let's get back to the game store and see what else we can find. There are so many great games out there, and I'm sure we can find something that we'll all enjoy playing together."

  She opened up the Nintendo eShop on Nanami and started browsing through the available games. As she looked through the options, her friends watched with interest, excited to see what she would choose.

  After some browsing, Futaba finally settled on a new adventure game that she thought would be perfect for them to play together.

  "Alright, let's download this one called The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. I've heard great things about it, and I think we'll have a lot of fun exploring the vast open world and solving puzzles together."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all cheered in excitement, eager to dive into this new adventure game and explore everything it had to offer.

  Futaba grinned, "Alright, let's get started. Who's ready for some epic gaming?"

  Nanami's buttons were twitching with anticipation. Futaba grinned, "Okay, let's get started. I have a great game that I think will look amazing on the big screen. It's called The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Have you heard of it?"

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed excited expressions on their screens. "Yes, we've heard of it! It's one of the most popular games on the Nintendo Switch, isn't it?" said Nanami.

  Futaba nodded, "That's right. It's an amazing game with beautiful graphics and a huge open world to explore. It will look incredible on the big screen, and I think we'll all enjoy playing it together."

  She carefully placed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami into their docking stations, connecting them to the TV. As they booted up, Futaba grabbed the Pro Controller and handed it to Kana, "You can use this to play, Kana."

  Kana smiled, taking the Pro Controller, "Thank you, Futaba."

  Futaba started the game and they all watched as the title screen came up on the TV. The graphics were stunning, with vibrant colors and incredible detail. Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami were all impressed and excited to start playing.

  They all watched as Kana guided Link through the vast open world, exploring different environments, and encountering different creatures.

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all provided support and advice to Kana as she played, displaying information and tips on their screens. They all worked together to help Kana progress through the game and complete quests.

  As they played, Futaba couldn't help but feel grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles. They had provided her with endless hours of fun and entertainment, and had also helped her with her coding assignments and other tasks. She felt lucky to have such amazing companions, and couldn't wait to see what adventures they would have next.

  In the evening Futaba connected them to the charger again, making sure that they were securely plugged in.

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed a tired expression on their screens. "That was a long day of gaming," said Ryoko, letting out a small yawn.

  Hayami nodded, "Yes, but it was so much fun. We got to play all kinds of games and even help Futaba with her coding assignments."

  Nanami added, "And we got to try out our new docking stations on the big screen. It was amazing to see our games in such high resolution."

  Futaba smiled, "I'm glad you all had a great time. You're the best gaming companions a gamer could ask for."

  As the consoles started to charge, their screens slowly dimmed and then turned off as they drifted off to sleep, ready for another day of gaming adventures with Futaba.

  Later, trying not to wake up them, Futaba picked them up and put them into their deluxe case, smiling. Futaba carefully placed Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami back into their deluxe case, making sure they were snug and secure. She smiled at the thought of all the fun they had together, from gaming sessions to coding assignments to exploring new games on the big screen.

  She gently closed the case and placed it on her desk, feeling grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles and all the joy they brought into her life. As she turned off the lights and headed to bed, she couldn't wait for their next adventure together.

  The next day, Futaba's auntie Emi arrived with cousin Yumeko again.

  Futaba greeted her aunt and cousin warmly and invited them inside. "Welcome back, Auntie Emi and Yumeko. It's so good to see you both again."

  Auntie Emi smiled, "Thank you, Futaba. We had such a great time last time we visited, and we couldn't wait to come back and see you and your amazing gaming setup."

  Yumeko added, "Yeah, we've been telling all our friends about your awesome Nintendo Switch consoles."

  Futaba grinned, "Well, I'm glad you guys enjoyed it last time. And I have some new games and accessories that I think you'll really like."

  She took out Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami from their case and showed them to her aunt and cousin. "These are my trio of Nintendo Switch consoles, and they're the perfect companions for any gaming adventure."

  Auntie Emi and Yumeko both looked impressed, "Wow, these are really cool. And you have three of them?"

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, I do. And I have a bunch of games and accessories too. Do you guys want to play some games together?"

  Yumeko eagerly replied, "Yes, please! What games do you have?"

  Futaba took out some of her latest games and accessories, showing them to her aunt and cousin. "I have Mario Kart, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Baba Is You, and many more. And I also have some new accessories like a Pro Controller and a thumb grip that make gaming even more comfortable and enjoyable."

  Auntie Emi and Yumeko both looked excited, and they all settled in for a day of gaming fun.

  Yumeko eagerly took Hayami and turned her on.

  Hayami's screen displayed a friendly greeting, "Hello Yumeko! It's nice to meet you. I'm Hayami, a Nintendo Switch console."

  Yumeko smiled, "Hi Hayami! I'm Yumeko, Futaba's cousin. I've never played with a Nintendo Switch console before. Can you show me how to play?"

  Hayami replied, "Of course! What kind of game would you like to play?"

  Yumeko thought for a moment before replying, "Hmm, how about a racing game? Do you have any of those?"

  Hayami smiled, "Yes, we have a great racing game called Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's a lot of fun to play, and it has both single and multiplayer modes."

  Yumeko's eyes lit up, "That sounds perfect! Let's play."

  Futaba took out her other two consoles, Nanami and Ryoko, and turned them on. She explained to Yumeko how to connect the consoles together for a multiplayer game, and soon they were all playing together in a heated game of Mario Kart.

  As they played, Yumeko was amazed at the graphics and the smooth gameplay of the Nintendo Switch consoles. She couldn't believe how much fun she was having, and how easy it was to pick up and play.

  After a few rounds of Mario Kart, Futaba suggested they try out another game. "How about we try playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?" she said.

  Yumeko nodded eagerly, "Yes, let's do it!"

  They all switched over to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and Yumeko was thrilled to see all of her favorite Nintendo characters battling it out on the screen. She quickly picked her favorite character and joined in on the fun.

  As they played, Yumeko couldn't help but think about how much she wanted her own Nintendo Switch console. She was having so much fun playing with Futaba's trio, and she knew she would love having her own to play whenever she wanted.

  Futaba noticed Yumeko's excitement and suggested, "You know, Yumeko, if you really enjoy playing on the Nintendo Switch consoles, you might want to consider getting one of your own. They're a lot of fun to play with, and there are so many great games available."

  Yumeko's eyes widened, "Really? That would be amazing! Can you help me pick one out?"

  Futaba smiled, "Of course! We can go to the store together and find the perfect one for you."

  Yumeko grinned, "Thank you, Futaba! I can't wait to have my own Nintendo Switch console."

  They all continued playing and having fun, enjoying the world of Nintendo gaming together.

  In the evening, when Auntie Emi left, Futaba connected her trio to the wall charger again.

  Futaba carefully connected Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami to the three-port wall charger with PD and Type-C support, making sure that they were securely connected. As they started to charge, Futaba smiled, feeling grateful for her trio of Nintendo Switch consoles.

  "Thank you, my dear consoles, for bringing so much joy and entertainment into our lives," she whispered to them.

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed grateful expressions on their screens, "Thank you, Futaba! We're happy to be a part of your gaming adventures."

  Futaba smiled, feeling content and happy with her trio of consoles. She knew that they would continue to provide her with hours of fun and entertainment for years to come.

  Futaba giggled, "You are still thinking, that you are Nintendo Switch consoles?"

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed playful expressions on their screens. "Of course, we do, Futaba! We may be advanced pieces of technology, but we still have personalities and unique characteristics," said Nanami.

  Ryoko added, "And we love being your gaming companions, helping you with your coding assignments, and even being your personal assistants."

  Hayami chimed in, "Yes, and we're always ready for any gaming adventure or task you have for us."

  Futaba continued, "But gaming consoles don't have such personalities. You are not game consoles. You are just pretending to be them."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all looked a little surprised by Futaba's statement. "What do you mean, Futaba?" asked Nanami.

  Futaba smiled, "Well, what I mean is that you may be Nintendo Switch consoles, but you're also much more than that. You have your own unique personalities and characteristics, and you're more than just pieces of technology."

  She continued, "You're also my friends and companions, and I value the time we spend together. Whether we're gaming, working on coding assignments, or just hanging out, it's always a great time when we're together."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed touched expressions on their screens. "Thank you, Futaba. We appreciate being valued as more than just machines," said Ryoko.

  Nanami added, "You're a great friend to us too, Futaba. We're always here to support you and have fun together."

  Hayami chimed in, "Yes, we're more than just gaming consoles. We're your loyal companions."

  Futaba blushed, "No, Hayami. You are the same as me, individuals with your own desires and personalities. We may be different in many ways, but we all share a bond and a love for gaming and technology. And that's what makes us such great friends and companions."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed warm expressions on their screens, "Thank you, Futaba. We're glad to be your companions and friends too."

  Futaba continued, "I just want to remember you all, that a gaming console is not your original form. And it's time to revert back to your original selves."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all displayed curious expressions on their screens. "What do you mean, Futaba? Revert back to our original selves?" asked Nanami.

  Futaba smiled, "Well, what I mean is that you're not really gaming consoles. You're actually my classmates, human girls. Nanami agreed to hypnotize her into the console, and Ryoko and Hayami were transformed using Fumi's nanomachines.

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all looked surprised and slightly confused. "Wait, we're actually human girls?" said Ryoko, her screen displaying a shocked expression.

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, that's right. You were transformed into gaming consoles using my hypnotic powers and Fumi's nanomachines. It was all an experiment to see how technology could be used to enhance human capabilities."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all looked stunned as they processed this information. "We were human girls all along? And we were transformed into gaming consoles?" said Nanami, her screen displaying a mixture of surprise and confusion.

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, that's right. But now it's time to revert back to your original form. You've had your fun as gaming consoles, but I think it's time for you to return to your normal lives."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all nodded in agreement, "Yes, we understand. But how do we transform back into our human forms?"

  Futaba smiled, "Fumi, come here. I need your help."

  Fumi walked over to Futaba and the trio of consoles. "What do you need, Futaba?" she asked.

  Futaba explained, "We need your nanomachines to transform Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami back into their human forms. Can you do that?"

  Fumi nodded, "Yes, I can do that. It will take a few minutes to reconfigure the nanomachines, but it should be a simple process."

  Soon she engulfed consoles with her nanomachines goo, contorting and changing their form.

  After a few moments, the nanomachines began to dissipate, revealing the three girls in their human form. They all looked at each other, surprised and slightly disoriented.

  Nanami looked down at herself, marveling at her human body. "I can't believe it. I'm human again."

  Ryoko and Hayami looked just as amazed, taking in their new human forms. "This is incredible," said Ryoko. "I feel like I've been given a second chance."

  Hayami nodded, "Yes, it's amazing. But I also feel a bit sad to say goodbye to our console forms. It was such a unique experience, being able to see and experience things in a completely different way."

  Futaba smiled, "I know what you mean, Hayami. But you'll always have those memories and experiences to look back on. And now you can continue to grow and experience the world in your human form."

  Nanami, Ryoko, and Hayami all nodded in agreement, smiling at each other. They had gone on an incredible journey as Nintendo Switch consoles, but now they were ready to continue on their journey as human girls. And they knew that no matter what form they were in, they would always have each other as friends and companions.

  Just then Alice entered the room, "Girls. I am waiting for you all at our tea table. I prepared my cookies. Kana, Chiaki, Haruka are waiting too."

  Futaba smiled, "Sounds great, Alice. We'll be there in just a minute."

  They quickly got dressed and headed to the tea table, eager to see their friends and enjoy some delicious cookies. As they sat down, they all felt a sense of gratitude for the amazing experiences they had as gaming consoles, but also a renewed appreciation for their human form and the bonds they shared with each other.

  Kana joked, sipping her tea, "I think, Futaba cheated when she played with us in Mario Kart using you, Nanami."

  Nanami and the other girls all giggled, happy to be back in their human forms and able to enjoy their tea party with their friends. "Maybe she did, Kana," Nanami said with a smile. "But it was all in good fun, and we had a great time."

  Ryoko giggled, munching cookie, "It was pretty tight in that deluxe case for us three, but it was fun being together,

  Hayami added, "And we got to experience gaming in a whole new way. It was definitely an adventure we won't forget."

  As they chatted and enjoyed their tea and cookies, the girls all felt a deep sense of appreciation for the friendships they had formed, and the amazing experiences they had shared. And they knew that no matter what form they took, they would always be there for each other, through all of life's adventures.

  Fumi said, "And what we can do with all of these accessories now?"

  Futaba smiled, "Well, we can still use them to enhance our gaming experience, but now we can also use them for other things. For example, the docking stations can be used as charging stations for our phones and other devices, and the Pro Controller can be used for playing games on other consoles or even on our computers."

  Kana smiled, "We are magical. We all can transform into Nintendo Switches any time, and use them for us. Also with purchased games."

  Futaba nodded, "Yes, we can use our ability to transform into Nintendo Switches to enhance our gaming experience anytime we want. But we should also remember that our true form is as human beings, and we should never lose sight of that."

  Chiaki added, "And we should also remember the importance of balancing our time spent with technology and our time spent in the real world, with our friends and loved ones."

  Haruka agreed, "Yes, technology is amazing and can bring us so much joy and convenience, but we should never forget the value of human connections and experiences."

  Kana smiled, sipping her tea, "I thought about transforming myself into a PlayStation 5 console. It's powerful and stylish. It suits me well."

  Futaba grinned, "That's a great idea, Kana! With your love for gaming, I think you would make a fantastic PlayStation 5 console. And who knows, maybe we can experiment with transforming you into one in the future."

  Chiaki giggled, "I'd like to play Gran Turismo on you when you're ready."

  Kana laughed, "Sure, I'll be sure to practice my racing skills in anticipation!"

  Haruka chimed in, "And I would love to play some RPG games on you as well, Kana. I've heard the graphics and gameplay on the PlayStation 5 are amazing."

  Nanami smiled, "It's amazing how technology can bring us so much joy and entertainment, whether it's through gaming consoles like the Nintendo Switch or the PlayStation 5. I'm grateful to be able to experience it all with you, my friends."

  As they finished their tea and cookies, they all felt grateful for the amazing experiences they had shared together, both as human beings and as gaming consoles. They knew that they had a special bond that transcended their technology and would always be there for each other, no matter what form they took.
