Good price point on those accessories.
I saw interesting accessories.
I’m definitely gonna grab that dock. For one, it’s far more portable than the stock one. I love the one it came with but transporting it is a pain. For two, it comes with a charger. The charging cable from Nintendo is $20 and it only includes one with the console, which would need to be disconnected from the dock to take it with you in portable mode. Overall a really great deal for something Nintendo is charging a lot more for.
