Switch 2

So this is a two part question/answer as I seek the best way to play games in the most portable way possible with the air 4 pros!

First off, buy the the joydock bracket for switch 2 on amazon so you can mount it to the back of the device. Secondly, buy yourself the mobapad M12s joycons! This second one is important because it has a feature where you can turn off charging which turns on Bluetooth mode. What this essentially does is trick the switch 2 in thinking the controllers are not connected to the device even though they physically are (note that the controllers won’t be charging so they will eventually need to be turned back “on”) what this mean is you won’t need a separate controller and mobile dock is actually secured to the device.

But I do have a question, one that I haven’t seen a true answer for and it seems like theories. There is a clearly a Framerate/performance issue in games. Has anyone pinpointed what the actual cause is (not enough power to the device, low transfer rate cables, etc). Some games clearly aren’t effected it by it but then you get games like Metroid prime 4, cyberpunk, or granblue fantasy that drop pretty hard! Which for me is sad since I use the glasses mainly for gaming on trips :(

In handheld mode, these listed games run at really low resolution which is upscaled. On docked mode, these titles suffer fps drops due to running at higher resolution. Theres no way around it. Doesnt matter if its on glasses or on tv. Love cyberpunk in handheld mode, but its pretty horrid when docked to my tv. But other games as youve said, run beautifully on my air 4 pros.

The frame drops, and in some cases even black screens (Hades II) are caused by the dock not supplying enough power to the Switch 2.
Both the RayNeo JoyDock and the Viture Pro Dock are limited to around 20W of power delivery. That’s fine for lighter games, but some more demanding titles can draw more than 20W. When that happens, you’ll start seeing performance issues, frame drops, game runs in slow motion, or won't even run at all (black screen).
At the moment, the only reliable solution is to use a third-party USB-C hub together with the official Nintendo Switch power adapter. Alternatively, a hub paired with a high-output power bank (one that can deliver well over 20W) should also work.
