The Nintendo Switch has become popular around the world due to its processing power and the ability for users to play both in portable mode and on television. But in addition to these two ways of playing, the console can also be connected to a computer.

Below, you can learn how to stream Nintendo Switch games to your desktop or laptop. Among the main advantages, a computer screen can offer better performance for high-performance games compared to a television screen.

Contrary to what some people may think, it is not that simple to connect the console to the PC to use the desktop or notebook screen as a gaming monitor. This is mainly because the HDMI input on computers is used more to send the signal from the screen and not to receive it (unlike the television). Therefore, if you only use the cable to make this connection, it will not work.

The key is to use a video capture card: a device that receives the video and audio signal from one place and sends it to another; for the process to work, this card needs to have a USB plug (which will be connected to your PC) and an HDMI port (to connect the docking station cable).
