It's a simple adapter USB-C male to female, in an angle, making the cable go behind the Deck, so it doesn't wiggle on top.

I wish the port was on the bottom in the first place. Ditto audio jacks on phones (while they lasted, rip)

For me it's better on top since I sometimes play with the deck rested on a cushion on my lap.

Same, I hate I can't do the same on the switch

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah I can see that. Can it breath ok like that?

[-] mtlvmpr@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 weeks ago

There shouldn't be any vents on the bottom. Only hole is for the MicroSD

How am I supposed to keep my deck up on it's kickstand with it plugged in at the bottom?

[-] x00za@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago

LISTEN

One at the top and one at the bottom.

[-] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Clearly the best solution imo.

[-] x00za@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah there's laptops that already have it on the left and on the right. It's pretty nice

The Nintendo Switch has the port at the bottom with the connector built into the dock. IMO a better solution, particularly for playing handheld with the cable in.

No this is better:
