The firmware of Nintendo Switch 2 has just been updated recently. Many players reported that the third-party docks they purchased were locked and cannot be used, which triggered heated discussions. After a recent media consultation, a person from Nintendo's publicity department stated that the official design did not exclude third-party docks at all.

Nintendo responded to players’ reports that the Switch 2 third-party dock was locked, but the official did not exclude it.

·After players reported that the third-party dock was locked, many voices speculated that although it was a standard USB-C port, they seriously suspected that Nintendo had designed a unique encryption system inside the console to exclude the use of third-party docks.

·In response to the doubts, Nintendo's publicity department officially responded that Switch2, like the first-generation console, supports the connection function of regular bases. Nintendo has no design that deliberately excludes the use of legal third-party bases.

·Then the problem is here. Players who reported the problem may consider replacing the base or waiting for the next Nintendo firmware update.
