“Will this cable work for my Nintendo Switch?? I leave my dock at home, so when I travel with just my Switch, I'd like a quick display option and this seems like the right tool, but I'd rather ask before I buy”

No, this cable will not work directly with a Nintendo Switch. The Switch requires its dock (or a compatible adapter that supports power delivery, USB-C, and HDMI output together) to connect properly to a TV. A simple USB-C to HDMI cable like this one cannot replace the dock. If you need portability, look for a third-party Switch dock or adapter specifically designed for travel use.

While our 6' USB-C to HDMI Cable is a versatile tool for connecting various devices to HDMI displays, it's important to note that it may not be the ideal solution for your specific Nintendo Switch use case. The Nintendo Switch requires a specific USB-C dock or adapter designed to output video and audio signals to an HDMI display. A standard USB-C to HDMI cable might not be compatible with the Switch's unique display output requirements. To ensure compatibility, we recommend checking the official Nintendo website or consulting with Nintendo customer support for specific recommendations on connecting your Switch to an external display. I hope this helps!
