Connecting your Nintendo Switch to the TV might sound like magic, but it’s as easy as pie. Let’s break it down step by step.
The Short and Sweet on Connecting Your Switch
To hook up your Nintendo Switch to your TV, you’ll need your Switch, its dock, an HDMI cable, and of course, your TV. It’s a straightforward process that’ll get you playing in no time.
First, open the back cover of the Nintendo Switch dock. You’ll see a couple of ports in there. Plug the USB plug from the Switch’s AC adapter into the top terminal labeled ‘AC ADAPTER’, then connect the other end to your wall outlet. Next, take your HDMI cable, plug one end into the terminal marked ‘HDMI OUT’ on the dock, and the other end into an HDMI port on your TV. Close the dock’s back cover, dock your Switch, select the correct HDMI input on your TV, and boom – you’re ready to play!
