Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “5 MUST HAVE Nintendo Switch OLED Accessories! (2021)”.
What’S going on guys, it’s your average consumer and the nintendo switch oled is out, and of course you know, your boy had to talk about some dope accessories that you got ta get your hands on for that new switch. So if you’ve got the new switch, of course, you know a few things are a bit different with this one. You got that nice larger display uh, but this means some changes for the most part. This thing pretty much feels like the standard nintendo switch, but it is a little bit wider, so certain accessories that you might have already owned from the previous switch won’t necessarily work here, mostly grips and things that conform to the exact size of the switch. Those are out so you might need some new stuff if you plan on upgrading, but i wanted to talk about some of the essentials first first thing i would definitely recommend is actually the case that nintendo sells for the oled switch.
I think you can use this for the regular switch as well, but this came out alongside the oled switch. I like this case. It’S really really simple. I like the black and white uh. It gets the job done. You throw your switch inside of here.
You even have this spot so that you can hold cables and some games. I think this is made to be used as some kind of stand or something i’m really not too sure. But one thing: that’s nice about this case is that it also comes with a screen protector, so i was actually pretty surprised by that. I actually applied it to my nintendo switch. Now, there’s a reason. This thing already comes with a screen protector and that’s because the panel underneath is actually glass so they’re, calling it an anti-scattering, adhesive film and that’s cool and all. But i feel like it’s nice to have another screen protector on here in case of scratches that screen protector, you cannot remove, or at least nintendo does not want you to remove it by any means. So please don’t so just throw on another one.
In case you deal with scratches or anything like that, you won’t have to worry about it being on the final screen protector, but i’m just happy that this thing came with the screen protector. It was just a nice little bonus for the sleek form factor case. I’M used to carrying bulkier cases i’ll actually have some links to some of the accessories i used for my original switch down below in the description. A lot of those will still work for the oled so definitely check that out, but yeah super happy with this. It’S only 20 bucks, so you get a nice case screen protector. Pretty much sets you up to take this on the go, but let’s say you want a little bit more.
Maybe you want something a bit different right, so i found this little accessory kit on amazon. I’M not even really sure the name of the brand. I think it’s, what is it last y’all, clear, protective cup, whatever i’ll? Have it linked down below? Basically, it’s like a plastic case. It’S made of like a tpu material.
You know those clear cases we see on smartphones. Well, this has that now i don’t normally like this kind of stuff, but when it comes to the switch oled, if you go for the white controllers, you might notice. This happened to me really quickly and i’m really careful with my stuff, but i got some scuff marks on my joycons and these are not going away. I can’t just like rub it out pretty annoying to have that happen so quickly, and these come with these covers these plastic covers. So if you want to protect your joy cons, you you’re the type of person who gets bothered by scuffs like i am you throw this on.
It keeps it nice and protected. So you don’t have to worry about that white. Getting messed up.
So it’s nice to have for the joy cons at least, and the material is not bad. It definitely still feels very comfortable. So i like this, but this thing also comes with a few other things. It comes with a tempered glass screen protector, so you get that if you want it – and you also get these little nubs for your joysticks and your joycons now for me personally, these guys right here.
This is the way to go when you’re playing with the actual joy cons. I love the feel of this. I don’t find the joysticks that come with it that comfortable, it’s it’s fine as possible, but i like how these are concave and your thumb just sits in it makes it really easy to move around. I absolutely bought this just for these, not gon na hold you guys.
This is why i picked up the whole thing. It’S completely worth it. How much was this? Let’S see it’s actually 18.95, so under 20 bucks between the joy-con cases, these guys right here and that screen protector, it’s absolutely worth it now. Another thing you’re going to want to get your hands on is, of course, a memory card.
I got this memory card and one of our massive tech unboxings is the one terabyte card pricey it’s like 100. I think it’s like 120 bucks right now. You don’t need all that, but i’m somebody who gets tons and tons of digital games. So i wanted to have all that extra space, even though they increase the storage you’re gon na want more than what they give you here.
So memory cards are absolutely a must i’ll put some of the best value ones in the description as well. For you guys to check out, but one thing that is nice is that this thing can still use all the joy-con accessories that you might already own with a previous switch like these. I think this is the hoary split pad or something like that. Either way you can use like old cons feels good now, like i said before, certain grips will not work, but this one, i feel like you guys, should absolutely consider okay, so this is the hyperx charge plate clutch now like i said this is basically a grip. You can see that it still fits here, just fine uh, but this thing does quite a bit actually, but you will notice that there’s like a little bit of a gap here, it doesn’t impact anything nothing’s gon na fall off. This is still really nice and secure. It’S not a big deal, though trust me not a big deal. Not only does it give you like a super super comfortable grip, but it also charges this as you play, so it has a built-in charger in the back because it connects to the usbc port and you can of course charge it and the switch.
At the same time, so you can do that. It also has a kickstand. So, even though the switch oled has that beautiful new kickstand uh, this one’s got a really solid one that you could depend on as well, but beyond that it also does a couple of other things, so you can take off this part.
You can connect them like this open this up, take your joy cons off then you can put them in here and then use them like a controller. So i think that’s pretty cool i’ll, be honest with you guys. I never do that. I never use the little thing that comes with the switch to use this, as, like a controller – that’s that’s not me, but yeah. Once i bought this from my previous switch, i like never took it off.
It is a little bit bulky, though, and you can’t put this thing inside of like any real cases or like cases that you would take around with you, so you want to keep that in mind now over here we’ve got something cool now we all know the Switch oled has this nice cool new dock. That has, you know some new features. It’S got the new look uh, and it also has that ethernet port in the back, which is all great, can’t complain uh, but it’s still a very large switch dock right. So there’s this cool device called the genki convert dock.
Now, i’ll be honest with you guys, it is kind of hard to find this right. Now uh, i tried to find a replacement uh. This is from kiwi home. This did not work for my switch if you’re looking for this guy and you stumble across this – don’t buy, it didn’t work for me, but the genki convert dock.
If you can get your hands on, it is actually really cool. So it is essentially this in this form factor. You see the size difference there. That means you can basically take the dock anywhere with you very easily.
It’S not cumbersome at all, it’s the size of like a normal charger. So if you’re like going to a hotel or a friend’s house – and you want to play on the tv all you need – is this little guy and probably the cables you need to attach it. So i’m going to plug this in really quickly. Let me show you guys what we’re talking about all right so i’ll plug this into the outlet or this guy on and boom. Here we are so let me take out my joy cons, so, as you guys can see, all we need right here is this little guy the switch the cables necessary and boom we’re playing full blown nintendo switch on the tv just like it was the switch dock.
Now, what’s cool is that this thing also includes a usb cable and i believe nintendo sells an ethernet to usb adapter. So if you really need that ethernet cable plugged in, i think you might be able to get away with it, i haven’t tested it. Yet.
So don’t be mad at me if it doesn’t work, but i think the potential is there but yeah. This thing is super convenient i like being able to have like a dock pretty much anywhere with me. It’S really cool, especially on the go uh. So that is something you might want to check out and it only costs i think, like 50 bucks now, let’s say you’re docked up on the big tv.
You don’t necessarily want to use joy cons to play something like smash brothers, there’s something pretty cool. I want you guys to check out this. Is the fusion pro controller from power a, and this is basically like the xbox elite controller for the nintendo switch uh. You guys can see. We’Ve got the paddles in the back uh. This thing is actually removable, but you can throw on four paddles if you want extra controls, you want to take this thing seriously. You’Ve got the ability with this guy, which is cool, and this thing is just like a really solid controller.
One thing i do like about this is that, as you can see, it’s got some customization options. Uh. You can go ahead and take off this plate even and you can go all black if you want that. Like super stealthy look and you can customize it even further beyond just looks uh you can take off these and then you can throw different versions on right here. I personally, like the ones that it comes with, but if you do want to switch it up, maybe you want like a taller joystick or you want something smooth. You have that option as well, but i’m pretty good with stock and we’re gon na go back to white since we’re rocking the oled switch and we throw the paddles back on but yeah if you’re docked in and you’re ready to play a game seriously. This is a really really good controller to get your hands on. I believe i saw this for about 80 bucks. Last time i was in stores so they’re, not crazy, expensive, especially considering uh everything that you’re getting here.
This is like all that you would want from a controller and uh. It’S actually really awesome and that about wraps it up for this list guys now i would have a pair of bluetooth headphones to recommend for you guys. If i got the feature to work, i don’t know why my oled switch just, cannot discover any bluetooth headphones for some reason – and i know it’s been a pretty mixed bag on who gets it to work and who doesn’t so until nintendo really gets that figured out. I’M gon na leave those recommendations for another time.
I want you guys buying a pair of bluetooth headphones. I recommend and not have it work with your switch so that wraps it up for this video guys. Hopefully you enjoyed it. If you didn’t check out the previous switch accessories, video that i’ve done, like i said i’ll, have it linked down below there’s awesome stuff there that you’ll be able to take advantage of and use here as well, so definitely check those out, but till next article guys, Your average consumer, i will have a full review at some point coming soon i’ll have that link down below once it’s out, but till then i’ll catch you guys in the next one peace kevin. Let’S play around man smash bros .
