I won't be getting the camera at all tbh, but this is really cute.

Side note, kinda an oversight that they show the camera plugging into the top USB c port while docked. Hopefully the camera ships with a usbC to usbA adapter so it can be plugged into the dock.

The dock should’ve had at least one usb c port, like PS5

How is that an oversight?

Their features trailer even shows them explaining the second USB c port and they plug a camera into that top.

Because you have to unplug the camera every time you take the Switch2 out of the dock, instead of just plugging it into the dock via one of its (USB A?) ports?

[–] CosmicSploogeDrizzle@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Exactly, I don't really see who is going to use the camera while undocked. They should have put a camera in the console and then have it peak over the top of the dock to work while docked.

But can it be used as a regular webcam when plugged into a computer? 🤔

[–] Walican132@lemmy.today 3 points 10 months ago

Honestly, I wasn’t going to get a camera. I don’t really play with people I know often enough to want or need it. Then they showed this, and I am probably getting it regardless. Too cute. Hope it works with a regular computer, and I’ll use it at work.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Not sure about camera in general, but if this one has good quality, and can connect with computer too, I'll probably get it.

[–] big_slap@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

this is really cool, I'm getting this one
