Joycon charging docks for the Nintendo Switch

Joycon charging docks for the Nintendo Switch

The Joycons are what make the Nintendo Switch possible. Not only do they allow players to enjoy a complete controller experience, but they can also be used separately to enjoy select two-player games with a friend. However, as with any wireless controller, you will have to charge it, and with two separate controllers on the Nintendo Switch, you'll have to charge each half of the controller. While the controllers are usually charged via the main switch console, you may wish to buy a separate charging dock to charge the Joycons, especially if you have more than a pair. Here's a look at some charging docks for the Nintendo Switch Joycons that are available on Amazon. Please note that the products were selected based on the specifications and features on offer.
