It's good to see Nintendo adopting the industry standards.

Not standard for gaming devices yet. So a new standard hopefully.

There aren't many consoles that have a battery that needs to be recharged.



Please excuse my bad English.

Currently gaming on a PC with an i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

Steam / Live / NNID : jonxiquet    Add me if you want, but I'm a single player gamer.

Good stuff.

this supports the theory that there might be a dockless version sold...?

no, just that you can charge when away from the dock

But wouldnt that allow nintendo to sell a switch potentially without a docking station? and cables to hook up for the tv ect?

Maybe worth it if they can lower the price to get those that just want it as a handheld onboard at a cheaper price?



From the sound of it, seems like this is a good decision. Woo~!

So I can't charge it on my PC.



That means portable batteries can be supported!!

I was right all along
