Review on ๐Ÿ•น๏ธ Black Portable Dock Replacement Case for Nintendo Switch - DIY with Original Dock Circuit Board Chip by Brian Fishel

Revainrating 3 out of 5

IS THERE A THIN NYKO CASE? INTERESTING WILL THIS MINI DOC WORK?

Yes, the coveted replacement Nintendo Switch Basstop Dock that everyone loves. I wanted to like it too, great mini travel size, nice soft finish that won't scratch your switch when you take it in and out of the dock, solid design and made of pretty good quality plastic. So why 3 stars? First, disassemble the video on how to transfer a standard nintendo dock to basstop, it's not 100% accurate, removing the boot cover requires more screws to remove. There are 9 silver screws that need to be removed. I know this because I've done it before with the J&TOP Interchangeable Dock and it can be confusing for some people who have never taken apart their Nintendo Docks. As already mentioned, I tried another brand of J&TOP. Nice dock with great airflow design but the problem is none of them work with my slim Nyko case. I was hoping that the basstop dock would help, but unfortunately it didn't. It works great without a case but with the thin Nyko case. It doesn't even recognize that the Nintendo Switch is docked and ready to be displayed on the monitor, heck it's not even charging. Docking station that easily accommodates Nyko's slim body. I think I'll keep looking for other solutions or just settle for the standard Nintendo dock. Pros + Small, travel friendly. it will fall apart easily. + Fairly high quality plastic used in the manufacture of the docking station case. Cons - Doesn't work with Nyko's slim body, real crap wanted it to work that badly. Every single screw that needs to be removed from the Nintendo Dock has been warned. So be careful! Remember, if it doesn't come off easily, look for extra screws! - Must be modified to accommodate the standard Nintendo dock's LED light. Other Mini Dock Cases contain LED light.

Pros
  • Specially designed case to replace the original Nintendo Switch dock (You need to remove the circuit board chip from the original Nintendo Switch dock and install it in this replacement case).
Cons
  • Zero
