“You can use Nintendo Switch 2 Camera Accessory (Sell separate) or any compatible USB-C® camera that you want,” The company wroteBut if you just buy a PC webcam from the shelf, you may be disappointed.
We have tried many USB-C webcams, in which you will usually meet the “Best Webcam” list, such as around the Internet, Logitech Brio 4K, Insta360 Link, and Elgato facecam mk.2. Meanwhile, the ancient USB-A cameras such as my Logitech C920 did not have any problem immediately.
And in our testing, it does not matter whether you use the switch USB-C port or USB-A port, you are undergoing C-TO-A Adapter, or whether you do not do the work, work, and what you do.
Overall, it looks like nintendo, it did not mean “compatible with USB-C”, but “compatible with switch 2”. So why suggested that you can use any camera you want? We have asked Nintendo. (This was not an answer for us yet.)
As a launch, neither nintendo nor any major webcam manufacturer also had a partial list for us of the Sangat webcam. We asked Loditech, Raser, Microsoft, Anchor, Elgato, Dell, Insta 360, Obsboat and OPal, but they had nothing yet. (We will publish an update and/or a new story next week if they do.)
Meanwhile, it may depend on gamers and media to make a list themselves. So here is the first stab on it!
We confirmed that it works with switch 2
We confirmed that it doesn’t work

For credits of Nintendo, it is incredibly easy to test which camera to do Work with console. Just go System settings , Controller and accessories , Test USB camera And the workingmen will automatically display an image on the screen as soon as you plug them.
And for Lagato’s credit, it tells Ruckus It can try to update your cameras: “For those cameras that do not work, we will detect firmware updates to enable compatibility with switch 2“Spokesperson reads a statement through Justin Oakbina.
If you spot (or create a reliable update list), that webcam work, then tell us! I can include it here and in the future Ruckus Story.
