The 90s have been the glory days for clear plastic electronics, with Nintendo main the cost for teenagers, Apple providing see-through PCs, and Handspring letting adults get in on the enjoyable with some Palm Pilots. You can already exchange the housing of your Switch or Steam Deck with one thing that appears prefer it got here straight out of the Clinton administration, however a brand new choice is on the market for many who choose the Asus ROG Ally. And naturally, it comes with light-up LEDs.

The add-on comes courtesy of JSAUX, which already sells all kinds of accent devices for the Steam Deck. The $40 RGB Transparent Back Plate features a few additional LED lights and 6 interchangeable stickers that’ll put some additional pop in your again panel. Oddly these embody the PlayStation management cluster and the NASA emblem, for some purpose. The lighting comes with its personal 170mAh battery, discrete from the slightly beefy energy provide of the Ally itself.

You’ll have to cost it up individually, and it will probably solely run for about three hours. JSAUX additionally doesn’t suggest that you simply attempt to set up this factor for those who’re a tech restore novice — you’ll want so as to add a little bit of tape to the sunshine sensor to maintain the surplus mild from triggering it, for instance.

As The Verge notes, the provider can also be promoting some other Ally-specific geegaws, together with a protecting case with a rear kickstand (not appropriate with the clear rear plate), a docking station, a display screen protector, and grippy silicone add-on -pads. I’m a fan of the stylish sling bag, since each the ROG Ally and the Steam Deck aren’t fairly pocketable and infrequently want a charger and headphones for splendid moveable gaming. The RGB Transparent Back Plate and different Asus-specific add-ons ought to ship someday in November.
