About this deal

I am wanting to do some nintendo switch development, but of course I don't have access to their SDK. I thought the next best thing would be a gamepad shell which takes a phone and joycons since they work with android just fine and it is easy to develop for android. I usually play the switch in handheld mode so ideally I want something that looks like that.

The great thing about investing in Joy-Con grips of some kind is that you can use them no matter what Nintendo Switch you're using. Joy-Cons can be paired to the Nintendo Switch Lite and you'll notice in our review that the Nintendo Switch OLED uses the same model Joy-Cons, despite the larger screen size. Your Joy-Cons can be carried between different Nintendo Switch consoles and so can the overwhelming majority of the grips we've listed here. Plus the different color options when it comes to Joy-Cons makes it a fun customization piece for your console. First, ensure the Nintendo Switch logo and the player LEDs on the Joy-Con grip or Joy-Con charging grip are facing you. To ensure the right and left Joy-Con controllers are positioned properly, align the - Button on the left Joy-Con with the top-left corner of the Joy-Con grip or Joy-Con charging grip. Then align the + Button on the right Joy-Con with the top-right corner of the Joy-Con grip or Joy-Con charging grip. Both Split Pad models are definitely worth considering if you're goal is to not only improve the ergonomics of handheld mode, but add more traditional controls. Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you.Nate Bihldorff, senior director for localization at Nintendo Treehouse, was discussing the standard Joy-Con Grip as he held it in his hands. He then explained the difference between the two Grips: “There’s also a Charging Grip accessory that’ll come as well, that you can actually plug these into — plug a spare set of Joy-Con into — and charge.” Pokemon Switch Case, Cute Nintendo Switch Case, Split Type Silicone Protection, Soft Switch Shell, Switch Accessories, Gifts For Her Additionally, a Joy-Con charging grip (model No. HAC-012) is available and is sold separately. The Joy-Con charging grip allows you to keep playing while you're charging your Joy-Con controllers, so you don't have to miss a minute.

Because the Charging Grip is physically the same as the grip that comes with the Switch, it feels identical in the hand. This is perfectly fine; the Joy-Con grip already feels comfortable with two Joy-Cons attached, and the Charging Grip offers no discernible difference. It turns the Joy-Cons into a single controller that feels like a conventional gamepad, which is ideal for playing most Switch games. Charging The Joy-Con grip accessory (model No. HAC-011) included with the Nintendo Switch console allows you to combine both Joy-Con controllers into a more traditional-style controller. Skull & Co has made a series of great Nintendo Switch grips that offer something most other grips don't: customization. Skull & Co's NeoGrip is a lightweight attachment for Switch and Switch OLED. It comes with three different handle sets that can be swapped on the fly. Joy-Con controllers contain a nonremovable 525 mAh battery that will last for approximately 20 hours, according to Nintendo. The company notes that the capacity of those batteries — as with all lithium-ion batteries — will degrade over time. Whether the pads are hooked up to a Charging Grip or a Switch, it will take about three and a half hours to charge them from empty to full.Unnecessary unless you have more than one pair of Joy-Cons, or plan to play for more than 20 hours at a time. Every Nintendo Switch comes with a Joy-Con Grip, an accessory that holds two Joy-Con controllers in a form factor that resembles a standard gamepad. But that unit won’t charge the Joy-Con devices — for that, you may want to buy a separate peripheral known as the Joy-Con Charging Grip. This is the closest thing I have found has a phone holder and joycon attachments. However, I usually play the switch handheld instead of using the joycon grip.
