Will definitely grab a mini-dock. Always asked for something like that to take on the go.

However, with so many accessories, why not something like this for the Pro Controller yet? Come on.

Definitely interested in the mini dock, but I'm gonna wait for some impressions before I bite. That thing could turn out dangerously flimsy.

You didn't see the clip grip? It's not the pro controller, but that's exactly like what you posted. It's also capable of charging battery / storing carts and microSD cards.

Why are they using the picture of an Android phone in there?

After Nyko killing consoles with their various "cooling" solutions I'm satying as far away from them as possible

At least I know Nintendo respects the USB-C standards of quality, really can't say as much about Nyko.

Will be interesting to see some of those in actual produced forms instead of renders, that control grip in particular is interesting.

Because they're marketing this as a a grip that will be useful for the Nintendo online app interactivity. I guess if we can't plug our headsets into the controller this is the next best thing...

Also... Do the Joy-Con connect to phones? If so, then this is the official emulator grip.

So is there really much of a difference in what the Power Pak and Boost Pak do? Seems like they both serve to expand batterly life/charge the switch while in portable mode, but just attach to the console differently and the boost pak can stay attached and charge while docked too.

Wish I hadn't spent $70 on a pro controller and $80 on joycons. Would have bought some cheap accessories and been done with it since I'm only going to use them once in a while. That dock is pretty slick though and at half the price.

Okay, definitely think I'm gonna go with the Power pak when it comes out, I didn't notice that it had a reasonably better battery than the Boost pak.

If only the charge base had TV out it'd be perfect to charge a spare set of joycons

What's the best option for charging an extra pair of joycons and a pro controller? I have a USB cable for charging the pro controller, does the switch dock have enough USB ports to connect that 'charge block'?

This is the closest thing I've found.

But yeah I'm hoping we get some pro controller mounts for the switch console.

It's a bummer that the dock doesn't have a USB 3.0 port on it. I hard wire my Switch when it's docked using an Ethernet adapter and not being able to use one is kind of a deal killer.

Really wish that controller was $40 and wirelsss. Oh well. Hopefully the pro controller drops in price when I pick up a Switch.

Was wondering why they would attach a phone to the controller grip... It's so you can use the Nintendo app without digging it out of your pocket. Not sure I'd be up for that, but I WOULD love the part where it carries your games in it, if the ergonomics haven't been fucked with too much.
