Does the Switch Dock Need A Redesign?

The new improved dock will only cost $120!

 

I know I shouldn't have been "that guy" I just couldn't resist...

Even if they were Canadian dollars that's ridiculous... in fact, it's so ridiculous that it just might work! Quick, get on the phone to Reggie! Tell him to lose the plastic and start all manufacturing in Canada!

I am curious why the dock is designed as it is. Why does it need two walls?

Afraid of it falling? You only need one wall.

You aren't actually protecting the screen, and infact you could be damaging it (mostly by accident but still). Plus you can still do that with one wall.

Exactly, just make the Switch slant back slightly to rest on the back wall and we're sorted... or even better, don't even have a wall, I wouldn't exactly call what the Wii U dock has a wall, more of a little ledge for it to lean onto, and it works perfectly!

The only reason I find to this dock design is to give it a more "home-consoley" design, something like "it's not a handheld plugged to the TV"...
