The Nintendo Switch has remained popular despite being six years old and having minimal updates. Unlike its competitors, the PS5 and Xbox Series X, the Switch offers portability, personalization, and a wide range of exclusive and indie titles. This unique aspect of the Switch has led to a need for accessories such as batteries and protective cases, which are not typically required for other consoles.
The recently released Switch OLED is an improvement over the original version. The accessories mentioned in the article are compatible with the OLED version unless stated otherwise, although they have not all been tested on it. Some accessories are also suitable for the Switch Lite, which is the mobile-only sibling of the Switch that cannot be docked to a TV.
