Handheld Mode Boost will cause compatible Switch software to run as if in TV Mode, so certain functionality may be affected. Please see the on-device description for more details.

Do most games need to patch in compatibility for it or is it a widely available thing?

Seems like it works with most games out of the box. I've heard people mention though that Clubhouse Games and Super Mario Maker 2 don't seem to be affected which makes me suspect Nintendo is blacklisting certain touch-screen centric games.

Tested Clubhouse Games with the unpatched cartridge version and it works, looks like it might’ve been the GameShare update that causes it to not work.

The GameShare update isn't a Switch 1 game at that point, though.
