iPad Pro as Nintendo Switch screen

You can now use your iPad as a Nintendo Switch screen. And yes, the experience is as exactly as awesome as it sounds. With a cheap accessory, the latest iPadOS 17 update and a capture card app, you can start enjoying the best Switch games on Apple’s tablet in no time at all.
