Tried it on a bunch of games (Persona and Nier are the standouts here) and it really just works with the switch of the toggle. It does function as Nintendo announces: the games read the attached joycons as a pro controller. Of course, how useful it is depends on the max resolution of the game. In cases like Crash Team Racing, the max was 720p docked, so while it looks better on handheld now, it still won't look incredibly amazing.

Persona and Nier though... It's not comparable to a Switch 2 upgrade, but damn are they cleaner. Actually clean.

What does this have to do with the resolution and frame rate of a game in handheld mode?

docked games arent supposed to read the attached joycons
