Nintendo Switch: 9 Hidden Console Features You Didn't Know About

1. Charge Using External Battery Packs

We all know of how little battery life the Switch has once you get going with something like Breath of the Wild, so, enter the support for external battery packs.

In the Switch's case specifically, you're going to need to find one that has a USB-C connection, or an adapter at least, but following that, there are a humungous range of power-giving add-ons that can quadruple the system's lifespan.

They're as simple to use as plugging into the bottom of the tablet, as the console will recognise the battery pack as though you'd plugged it directly into a wall socket or the Dock. Either way, this allows you to play for far longer, and in a game like The Legend of Zelda, that's a very good thing indeed.
