Compact: the essentials for travel or a light setup.

Why people pick it

  • The adapter Nintendo names for TV mode on the Switch 2 dock
  • Standard USB PD up to 20V at 3A, so it also charges phones, tablets and light laptops
  • Cable detaches from the brick for storage and replacement
  • Works with the console directly or with the dock

Know before you buy

  • Single port, so it can't also charge a phone or controller
  • 60W is the ceiling; it's slow for laptops that ship with 65W or larger adapters
  • Nintendo doesn't publish weight, efficiency or a charge-time figure for the adapter alone
  • Fixed (non-folding) US prongs in Nintendo's product photos

Nintendo's rule for other adaptersNintendo says an AC adapter with 54W or more output can be used if you don't have a licensed one, but unlicensed products aren't tested by Nintendo and may have compatibility problems
