This USB wired keyboard is meant to be wedged between Joy-Con controllers so you can more easily type messages in the few games that support text chat. Its real purpose, I feel, is to make it easier to type in Nintendo’s eShop. Two quick notes on the Armor3: it doesn’t charge Joy-Con controllers that are attached to it, and its USB cable is 10-feet long, which should clear the distance between your couch and the Switch dock.
While it’s nowhere near as cool as Nintendo’s official Gamecube controller-meets-keyboard from the early 2000s, I’m happy to live in a world where Hyperkin’s keyboard exists, if only to continue the legacy of whacky-looking peripherals. The Armor3 is also compatible with PS4, PC, and Mac. If you think you’ll find it useful, the keyboard is on sale right now at Amazon, costing $27.60 during a Lightning Deal that’ll last for a limited time (usually $31.94).
