I have a question, my dock suddenly stopped working. I get a black screen when i put my switch in the dock. Now i still have a year warranty but my switch is hacked and banned. Will they still fix the issue under warranty ? Should i send in my switch and the dock or only the dock ? My switch still charges.

Idk if N will want the Tablet as well. Any chance you can test your tablet on a friend’s dock to make sure it is not a malfunctioning USB C port?

I had some issues and this is what fixed it for me.

1. Get Switch out of dock
2. Remove all cables from dock
3. Waite 2 minutes
4. Put powercord in wall then in Dock
5. Put TV on and then also connect HDMI to Dock
6. Put Switch back in

    Some people just like using original hardware for the hobby point of it
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You can easily buy replacement buttons but it's a good fall back
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    on screen keys would be cool but the gba screen is pretty tiny though :(
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd rather use emulation but it's cool regardless again the main point of the Touchscreen isn't just for buttons but for menu options
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    would be way better for menu options
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    although I have huge doubts anyone would be able to make homebrew that would give support for the touch screen
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    then again theres still people who develop games on systems as old as the nes for fun
