10 Nintendo Switch Accessories No Owner Should Be Without

Nintendo's hybrid games console, dubbed the "Switch" because it can pipe games either to TVs or mobile screens perched between hands, exemplifies the company's insurgent philosophy. It is both computationally quotidian yet prototypical, unable to match Microsoft's Xbox One X or Sony's PlayStation 4 Pro teraflop for teraflop. But the Switch is also free of those platforms' restrictive tethers. It's a gaming gizmo that goes wherever you do, enabling pickup games of Snipperclips or Mario Kart 8 between strangers on planes, in parks or on subway commutes. It is a repudiation of gaming's shift to "alone together," an exuberant backpedal toward in-person competition (or cooperation) buttressed by millions of years of social evolution.
