Customizing your own console is a process many of you look for. While there are plenty of gamers who prefer to stick with the original design, lots of you love to personalize your machine, giving it your own style and a pizazz of taste. If this is what you're looking for this holiday season (or if you know someone who is), you have come to the right place.
In this guide, we'll show you 10 things you can buy this holiday to glitz up your consoles and controllers, such as stickers, vynils, shells and more. Let's get to it!
