If your Nintendo Switch ever completely freezes up, there's a quick fix

Is your Nintendo Switch frozen? There are a few things you can do to get it unstuck. We'll run you through those options so you can get back to your game.

Products used in this guide

Amazon: Nintendo Switch ($300)
Amazon: YUUP Nintendo Switch Hub ($25)
Put your Switch back in its dock



The act of docking and undocking your Switch will briefly interrupt just about everything happening on the console. You barely notice it because it happens so fast, but there's a brief stutter where the console makes that switch (I regret nothing) from one state to another.

If your Switch is frozen, dock it and undock it to see what happens. In many cases, you'll see the console return to the normal functioning position and everything is great. No additional steps required; you can return to your regularly scheduled gameplay.

On the other hand, if you're still suffering issues then you may need a new dock. Instead of buying the pricey official one, try out a more reasonably-priced third-party doc...
