Whether you're playing with friends, gaming solo, or on the move, we've rounded up some of the best accessories to boost your Switch experience. The Nintendo Switch has been out for a few years now, but that hasn't stopped companies releasing new and exciting accessories for the device all the time.
The Nintendo Switch remains one of the most versatile consoles on the market, functioning as both a stationary device and a portable gaming machine, with controllers that can be detached and used in a variety of ways. This gives plenty of scope for accessories that can make the gaming experience even more varied. With the relatively recent release of the Nintendo Switch OLED, plenty of new Nintendo Switch games and a resurgence of interest for these two handheld consoles, we've rounded up the best Nintendo Switch accessories. While playing games can get your blood pumping, it’s not the most physical of activities, but thanks to the Ring Fit Adventure you can turn your game time into a full-on workout. Simply attach one Joy-Con to your leg with the included strap, and fit the other inside the handheld Ring-Con, and you’ll be able to physically produce in-game movements such as jogging, sprinting and jumping. 

Calling all Animal Crossing fans, this is the perfect accessory for you. PowerA makes affordable controllers that will work with both your Switch and Switch OLED. This one comes decked out with an Animal Crossing skin so you can rep your favourite game.

On top of the normal buttons you would get, this controller also throws in two advanced buttons on the back that you can map to whatever button you like. 

As a portable console, the Switch can be prone to scratches as it’s stuffed into luggage or goes through general wear and tear as you game on the go. It’s well worth investing in a screen protector to keep the image sharp and the device clean.

Designed with visibility in mind, this screen protector keeps damage away without compromising on the HD quality thanks to its high transparency, which also keeps the touchscreen sensitivity intact. Made with ultra-thin tempered glass, it’s easy to install without creating extra issues like bubbles or fingerprints. Just follow the instructions carefully, and make use of the cleaning cloth and dust-remover included. 

Mario Kart has long been a staple of Nintendo, and with the Joy-Con wheel accessory you can really feel like you’re Princess Peach in the driver’s seat. Designed for a smoother driving experience and more immersive gameplay, the two wheels provided would be an ideal addition to a Nintendo party.

In the spirit of Nintendo Switch, they are portable enough to carry easily if the party is elsewhere, but also work just as well alone if you’re playing online or in single-player mode. While there are plenty of replacement accessories for Nintendo's Joy-Cons, this officially licensed option from Hori is one of the best. Unlike the controller that comes with the Nintendo Switch, this feels more like what you'll be used to with other gaming controllers. Like the Animal Crossing controller above, there are two buttons on the back of this controller that you can map to whatever actions you like. As you invest in more accessories for the portable console it’s important to ensure you don’t lose track of the smaller pieces while on the move. This is where the Orzly Carry Case comes in. Perfect for keeping everything in one place, it holds the Switch and the Joy-Cons, has ample cable space and plenty of slots for games. The compact case is made from durable EVA material, while the inside is lined with soft material to keep your Switch and accessories free from scratches. 

If you’re a frequent user of the Nintendo Switch you’ll know how easy it is to burn through the 32GB of internal storage, and are likely on the lookout to expand your memory space.
