How would that even work when the switch is disconnected?
im sure they have some storage use for it in the future though

maybe keyboard and mouse input

Okay then, what about exFAT storage microSD? Do they work on a 3.0.0 switch? I've got a 200gb sandisk ready with roms for homebrew ;)

I noticed two USB ports on the dock and was wondering, could I use a USB HDD with it?
1.: Google would've solved your problem way faster
2.: The answer is NO.
3.: ACTUALLY PUT A GOD DAMN QUESTION MARK IN THE TITLE AAAAAAA
Putting none could get your thread taken as clickbait.

I don't know if the exFAT update is 3.0.0 but If your exFAT sd doesn't work, format it in fat32
exFat update is unrelated to System Update AFAIK.

ethernet uses data though
you make no sense. if it can transmit data via ethernet, it can transmit data using other media as well

They do make sense.

The Switch as of now can use USB for a few things, but USB storage is not one of them.

They would need to update the OS to support USB storage in some way.

You asked why does it have usb. I gave you logical answer.
If you don't see it, problem is on your side.
did you skim through the thread or something?
stop trying to act smart when you clearly dont know anything

i did say they might have plans for storage devices in the future
you backed up the guys claim that it cannot receive data from the usb ports yet you said ethernet

you dont know much man.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
