Michael Hemsworth — August 5, 2020 — Tech
The 'Switchblade Hub' is an aftermarket accessory for the Nintendo Switch gaming console that is capable of expanding on the functionality of the unit to make it more suited to the needs of players. The unit works by being positioned onto the rear of the console and will go to work providing users with a more sturdy way to keep it upright on a surface as well as providing access to HDMI, USB-A and USB-C ports. A small storage section underneath the kickstand offers a place to position two additional game cartridges to eliminate the need to carry them loosely when between locations.
The 'Switchblade Hub' is rounded off with Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity that will enable users to pair their wireless headphones with the unit for enhanced privacy and to prevent gameplay from disrupting those around them.
