Last updated
Ever wondered if you can connect your favorite wireless headphones to a Nintendo Switch? Let’s dive into that question and get you the answer you’re looking for.
So, can you really pair your wireless headphones with a Nintendo Switch? The answer isn’t as straightforward as a simple yes or no, but don’t worry, we’re here to clear things up.
Yes, But There’s a Twist
Yes, you can connect wireless headphones to a Nintendo Switch, but it may require an extra step depending on your headphones. The Nintendo Switch does support Bluetooth audio, but not all Bluetooth headphones will connect directly.
Some wireless headphones can pair directly with the Switch following a system update from Nintendo. For those that don’t, you might need a Bluetooth audio adapter. These nifty little devices plug into the Switch’s USB-C port or headphone jack, allowing you to connect any Bluetooth headphones wirelessly.
