Lord Mushroom Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I know it connects to the power supply (through a USB), but do you have to aim the Switch to hit the right spot, or does it just glide into place or something? I know the dock has an HDMI connection to connect to the TV, but how does the Switch send its video and sound to the dock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center of the dock is a USB-C style point that sticks out, it locks into that USB-C style jack on the bottom of your switch handheld device. That's it. Since it is as much a data transfer device as one to power/charge the handheld it instantly handshakes with the dock and kills the screen transferring all use and higher resolution output to the TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn´t think that was possible. You live, you learn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible to misalign it, but it generally just fits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeefy Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Yup it glides pretty well. Baby Beefy can usually get it in and out with little to no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
