Just got a Switch, what do I need?

It is cool that there are so many options, but I guess I'm a simple man; the Joycons that came with my Switch have served me well enough so far that I haven't felt any need to seek an alternative.

My biggest gripe with the Joycons is the lack of d-pad for 2d gaming.  I have an 8bitdo SNES30 Pro for docked mode, but in handheld mode, the lack of a dpad is a real issue.

The only 2D game I have for Switch so far is Yoshi's Crafted World, and I got by fine using the left analogue for movement in that. If you play a lot of more classic 2D games I can see the lack of a D-Pad being an issue but it hasn't bothered me yet.
