Do Nintendo Switch Controllers Charge in Sleep Mode?
Last updated
Ever wondered if you can recharge your Nintendo Switch controllers while the console is taking a nap in sleep mode? You’re not alone!
Let’s break it down: Can you actually charge Nintendo Switch controllers in sleep mode? Time to find out!
Short Answer: Yes, They Do!
Good news, gamers! Your Nintendo Switch controllers do charge while the console is in sleep mode. This means you can give your controllers a power nap simultaneously with your console. Handy, right?
As long as you dock the controllers with the Switch and the console itself is plugged in, they will charge. This works for the Joy-Con controllers when they’re attached to the console. For the Pro Controller, connecting it via USB to the docked Switch will also do the trick. Easy peasy!
How This Benefits You and Your Gaming Experience
Charging in sleep mode means your gameplay doesn’t have to stop for long. Imagine this: You’ve been playing your favorite game, and it’s time for a break. You put everything in sleep mode and when you come back, everything is charged up and ready to go. It’s like magic!
By charging in sleep mode, you’re always ready for action. This little feature makes managing gaming time and device maintenance so much simpler. Plus, it keeps your gaming space neat and tidy, without cables everywhere!
