The US Nintendo Store now lists spare parts for Nintendo Switch which is great news for those who are heavy-handed. Nintendo are currently offering customers options to purchase spare kickstands, docks and standard Joy-Con grips. I’ve included the prices below and the link to get them if you wish:
Nintendo Switch Kickstand – $3.99
Nintendo Switch Dock – $59.99
Nintendo Switch Standard Joy-Con Grip – $19.99
There’s no word on the UK store supplying these as of yet but we’ll update you when (and if) they decide to follow suit.
Did the dock go down in price?
$59.99 for what is essentially just a bit of plastic? Ouch. Suppose its convenient to not take the dock from room to room but still.
AC adapter and HDMI cable NOT included with the dock… so probably $90+ for a functioning dock? Yeesh.
TEEEEECHNICALLY you wont need to purchase the power adapter and the HDMI. or at least the official ones i mean. of course given that you already have a usb-c and hdmi cable readily available. all you do is makeshift a setup like the original dock.
for instance, I bought a pro controller and i use the pro controller charger and a attach a random wall adapter to the usb to charge the Switch as well. if you bought a 2nd dock. all yous have to do is use a secondary usb c and HDMI instead of buying the actual $30 charger. you could probably get away with the set up for about $15 dollars or less, seeing as though hdmi cables are abundant.
I already got the adapter so Im glad that when I get the dock it’ll be cheaper.
The price is not bad. Sounds promising. this is great news NintenMau5 c:
Would be better if I could purchase from the US store as I reside in ol’ Blighty!
Same for me my friend. But I entered 10 Nintendo Switch giveaways on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook just in case I didn’t win. They said they will announced the winners by email. Besides I’m a little short anyway.
And the Docks are gone…..
