USB hub that lets you place your Nintendo Switch horizontally, the "Lay Down and Stand Up 2-Way Stand Hub" is here!

Nintendo Switchを横置き出来るUSBハブ「寝かせて立たせて2Wayスタンドハブ」登場!
Product

The Nintendo Switch has been the most popular console in the world right now with the release of " Splatoon 3 " and the recently released " Bayonetta 3 ".
The OLED model has a larger, brighter, and more beautiful display, making it easier to play in portable mode or table mode, and the wired LAN port on the dock allows stable communication in TV mode without using an adapter. If you are going to buy one, I recommend the OLED model!
However, the wired LAN port is now permanently installed in the dock, which means that there are only two USB A ports, which limits the number of devices that can be connected at one time.
Some people may use a USB hub if they find it troublesome to change devices each time they connect, but Answer Inc. has released a USB hub that is perfect for the Nintendo Switch OLED model and can be placed horizontally!

It's sideways-ready and rack-storable!

The " 2-Way Stand Hub " from Answer Inc. is a USB hub and stand for the Nintendo Switch OLED dock.
By connecting it to the dock's USB A port, four USB A ports can be added, allowing for the connection of multiple USB connected devices such as controllers, headsets, keyboards, and microphones.
Since there is another USB A port on the dock, you can connect five USB devices, which is a level that allows you to keep all of the devices you use with the Nintendo Switch connected.

However, the "2-Way Stand Hub" is equipped with a USB Type-C port for power supply.
There is no need to worry about power shortage even if multiple devices are connected.

The greatest feature of the "Lay Down and Stand Up 2Way Stand Hub" is that it can be placed horizontally as well as vertically!
The Nintendo Switch needs to be placed in a space where there is enough room at the top to take it out of the dock or connect it to the dock, making it difficult to store it on a TV rack or the like.
Masahiro Sakurai of Sora (@Sora_Sakurai ), well-known for his Smash Bros. game console, has a custom-made console shelf that he uses to store his Nintendo Switch, and it was quite an eye-opener, but connecting the Nintendo Switch to the dock is &. The connection between the Nintendo Switch and the dock is not a "click" type, so there is a concern that it may come off in the event of an earthquake or other such event.

However, the "2-Way Stand Hub" is tilted at an angle of about 20 degrees, which is just right for horizontal placement!
This way, the connection will not come off easily because of its own weight, and it will be easier to remove from the dock or connect to the dock than if it were laid right next to the dock.
Also, since there is no more space directly above it, it can be stored with other devices on a TV rack, etc., making the TV area look cleaner.
