Is the USB-C device that is attached to the Switch system compliant with Nintendo's special standard? Don't want to risk damaging my system long term. That's the biggest thing keeping me from being interested in this device.


Doesn't plug into the mains does it?

What's this about a "special standard"? I was not aware that the type-C port on Switches were in any way, shape, or form different from any other.

USB A to USB C Cable requires a 56K resistor to not brick the switch. Don't know if it applies to C to C cables or other USB C devices

not sure if serious?

I am, and I'm referring to the black dongle. If I'm wrong about this point, please educate me.

Nintendo accessories and the Switch itself are not USB-C compliant. Using third party accessories could brick your switch. That's why it's suggested you use the official Nintendo USB-C cable that comes with the pro controller (or you can buy separately) when delivering payloads.

Huh, interesting. I've been using a USB A to Micro A plugged into a Micro A to USB-C converter from my old Samsung Gear VR, no problems so far. Now I'm a bit worried :blink:

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
