Nintendo Switch dock lets you project 'Zelda' onto your wall
Here comes the first Nintendo Switch dock that doesn't require a TV.
The Ojo, from Yesojo, is a specialized Switch dock with a built-in lens that lets you project your games onto any surface. It's also fitted with a rechargeable battery, a welcome perk for Nintendo's hybrid gaming machine.
The company's website is currently experiences technical difficulties, but a Kotaku UK report delivers some of the key hardware specs: 4-hour battery life, maximum projection size of 120 inches, built-in speaker, and a separate HDMI input (for connecting other video-producing devices).
Kotaku also notes that this is a pre-manufacturing product for now; Yesojo will seek crowdfunding support for the dock later this year.
While the company's website is sparse and (at present) only partially functional, it does have a very active social media presence. Multiple photos and videos from Yesojo's Twitter feed show the in-development Ojo in action... and it looks super cool.

There's no price, release timing, crowdfund timing, or anything like that. So don't get too excited... yet. But it's cool to see some creative third-party products like this start to surface for Switch.
