Fan creating Etika inspired Joy-Cons for charity

[Deleted User]

​

Indiegogo user Cptn Alex is creating "Etikons" to honor Etika and his legacy, as well as raising money for mental health and suicide prevention. Each Etikon sold will benefit the JED Foundation for teen and young adult mental health awareness. The Etikons are only shells and are not sold as full Joy-Cons until after the campaign, but you must pledge for the shells to be eligible for an upgrade. They are estimated to arrive in December of 2019 and will ship worldwide.

According to Cptn Alex, the Etikon shells will be manufactured in China unless they cannot find a suitable manufacturer, the shell will be made in the US, but will increase the cost and will need more time to be made. Cptn Alex's initial goal is $65000 USD, and and the minimum that will be donated to charity is $40000 USD.

If you cannot pledge, Cptn Alex says urges you to share this campaign with everyone you know, and/or donate to the JED Foundation in Etika's name.

Here are some images of the Etikons in different angles.

These are really nice Even though I found Desmond very annoying and over the top and needed to calm the fuck down.

But going of the dislik train the joycons are nice though.

yeah etika could be annoying sometimes, i didn't watch him as often as his other fans did but it was still sad to see him go

I was a big fan of Etika, and always will be. I sponsored his channel for a while as well. I am seriously considering donating to this. Most of the money goes to suicide prevention, so I feel like the $65 is justifiable.

Not a fan of custom joycons or any joycon that isn't the standard grey edition.
But I have to say this is kinda nice. While I haven't watched many of Etika's videos, some of which I enjoyed quite so.
It's such a shame he's no more among us

They are really going out to get everyone doing anything "illegal" in their eyes. This is crazy.
