I bought the official dock on sale. While I have other docks that kinda worked, the continued support with firmware updates and an extra excellent usb-c charger sealed the deal. 20pt off helped off course too! 😎

Now I’m dreaming of the day I can use this dock as my go to solution for traveling and even at home use. I have a multi story home, and lots lots of usb-c devices. This will be perfect!

Except.. I also like TOTK a lot. And I have a first gen switch, anyone know a hack to let the switch play nicely with this dock? Just screen hdmi and charging would be sufficient.

The charger works perfectly for the switch, the hdmi.. was a no go with the other docks. Still have to test with this new one but……. I fear it will not. :((

IIRC you can emulate TOTK on Steam Deck?

Yeah I know, but I like the motion controls.

And frankly the exclusives is the only thing I play on my Switch anymore. It’s just easier. Especially given I do not have much time anymore to tinker with things like when I was 20y ago. πŸ˜‰

But.. it is on my todo - someday - list for sure!

I don't know about Switch emulation, but the Steam Deck motion controls work well for other emulated games. I'm using it in Ultra Moon on Citra at the moment. You just need https://github.com/kmicki/SteamDeckGyroDSU (which emudeck can install for you). There is an odd bug where you need to turn on "Gyro Emulated Mouse" (or joystick) in the controls for the game and then turn it off again to make it work, but it's perfect after that.

SteamDeckGyroDSU works really well for motion controls with both Yuzu and Ryujinx.
