Nintendo Switch 2's USB-C Port: Why Doesn't It 'Just Work'?

The Nintendo Switch 2's USB-C port isn't as universal as expected. Third-party manufacturers reveal Nintendo employs a new encryption scheme and dedicated encryption chip, hindering compatibility with most third-party docks and video glasses. This has resulted in a scarcity of portable Switch 2 docks. While the official Nintendo dock functions correctly, this approach limits user convenience and choice, sparking controversy. While Nintendo cites security concerns, the necessity of these measures remains debated.
