NINTENDO HAS DONE IT AGAIN! The Switch 2’s proprietary USB-C dock issue – the most recent example of Nintendo’s anti-consumer practices and “greedy” behavior. We demonstrate the proprietary handshake protocol using a USB PD sniffer, explaining why third-party USB-C accessories and docks fail. The video explores the impact on consumer choice, innovation, and the tech industry, comparing it to the evolution of universal mobile phone chargers. We discuss the “slippery slope” of proprietary lock-ins, Nintendo’s refusal to allow local save file backups, and the exorbitant cost of official docks.
