Skull & Co StandGrip review for Nintendo Switch 2
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments
We’ve got another Nintendo Switch 2 accessory review for you – this time for the Skull & Co StandGrip.
By now, the Savage Raven line of grips for Nintendo Switch 2 is one of the only ones that hasn’t been surrounded by some sort of production controversy. Quite the opposite, actually – generally speaking, it seems both the Neo Grip and the StandGrip have been received positively so far. Today, we’re focusing specifically on the StandGrip, which is available from the Skull & Co website for around $20 right now. Despite appearing like a budget option, the StandGrip is currently my favorite out of the Nintendo Switch 2 grips I’ve tried. I’m someone who almost exclusively plays in handheld mode, and for that purpose the StandGrip works excellently. It might not suit everybody’s play style for reasons we’ll delve into in a moment, but this grip should absolutely be on your radar if you’re looking for a good one.

Nintendo Switch 2 owner uncovers method to intentionally crash the system
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Random, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Did you know that it’s possible to intentionally crash your Nintendo Switch 2? Fans shared that discovery on social media this week and it seemed to gain a lot of interest.
Doing so actually seems to be pretty simple. If you open and close the amiibo screen in the system settings quickly and repeatedly, Nintendo Switch 2 crashes. No one can say at the moment why this happens, but the console doesn’t like something here and forces a restart. After rebooting the system, it’ll thankfully turn back on as if nothing happened – which is what you would want in this situation.
Below is a look at the method in action:

Tying in with the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, we’ve put together a complete list of games that support GameShare. We’ll be updating this post over time as well.
GameShare is brand new for Nintendo Switch 2. With the feature, select titles allow you to play with others even if they don’t own a copy of the game. Even more interesting, you can share games locally with those that have the original Nintendo Switch. It’s possible to link up with up to three other systems at a time. We’ll also mention that GameShare supports online play with other Nintendo Switch 2 systems.
