My (not-approved-by-Nintendo) mod for the official Nintendo Switch 2 camera
I have been wondering since launch if the official camera is detachable from the stand without breaking it. I snagged a deal on a brand new one from Gamestop for $10 so I wouldn't feel so bad if I ended up breaking it...
Turns out, if you apply enough force to the top camera portion, it is held in place by a single screw. Just need to keep spinning the camera away from the base, and eventually it detaches....
Combine that small camera piece with a two-way USB-C adapter off Amazon, and now it's a fully functional handheld camera as well... This thing is PERFECT in handheld!! So much better than any of the low-res Hori options.
And best of all because it's screwed on, you can twist it back onto the base to use in docked mode. This is a non-destructive mod!
