Are there any docks out there that are safe to use?
The only reputable-brand one (aside from official) was the Nyko Portable Docking Kit which is no longer manufactured. That leaves cheap Chinese stuff. Do you have cloud saves?

Captain Flame Guy posted:

There are still a bunch of rumours going around about how they can brick your system, but I'd expect those issues to be ironed out by now.
The problem is there's no licensed docks other than Nintendo's official. So there's always a possibility that a future firmware upgrade could introduce a bug/new behavior that breaks third-party docks, or worse, brick the system. That's simply the result of Nintendo not testing updates against unlicensed accessories. That's basically what happened with Nyko and the 5.0 update. Nyko was replacing bricked Switches, which is nice, but this all predated cloud saves so people were still screwed.

For those concerned, it's well engineered. There are vents to allow convection cooling. The Switch itself sits in and against the cradle. The USB-C male end has no lateral forces applied, only the standard insertion and removal as designed.

It even makes use of the channel on the rear of the Switch to align the device onto the port.



Unless the tolerances for that bottom slot are perfect (they aren't), the center of gravity hanging out unsupported is going to put some lateral load on that port and plug, even if its static equilibrium has the front lip touching the tablet. Don't like it.

That dock has so little dock left that there's no reason for it to be a dock. Just have a six inch USB-C cable instead of having the Switch sit in it at all.

I'm glad the dock is big because it makes it possible to use a spiderweb lock to secure the switch into the dock, so they don't get stolen at smash tournaments.

Doesn't securing them together just make it easier to steal both?

The panel in back is also locked shut by the spiderweb, meaning you can't unplug the cables at the dock end and you'd have to run out of the venue with the power brick and hdmi dangling off.

I wish the dock was a little bigger and fully covered the screen. I’m always a little anxious my curious cats, that track litter sometimes, will flick a piece into the screen and cause a scratch.

Rbi baseball is on sale for$6 when it first released at $30. The worst thing I can say about it is that the tutorials will freeze the game and there's no rumble. Its an old school arcade baseball game and gets the job done, plus it has updated rosters that don't require nso.

It's a perfectly fine port.
If you like the first one it is just more of the same.

Thankfully the first game was real good.

I have yet to beat it but it's a great way to waste an hour.

That's how I cleared it too then was like "WTF not 100%!?" and realized I needed to do all the endings to get it. Was at like 99.67% without.
