Ugreen and Elgato have pledged to release firmware updates for their webcams, which currently do not function with the Nintendo Switch 2. The issue stems from the Switch's tendency to select incompatible modes from more powerful webcams. Elgato plans to introduce a 480p mode to enhance compatibility, while Ugreen highlights that compatibility involves detailed technical requirements beyond just resolution. Cameras must not advertise unsupported modes. Meeting these nuanced criteria is essential for webcam functionality with the console.
Ugreen and Elgato are the first to promise firmware updates for their webcams to enable compatibility with the Nintendo Switch 2.
Elgato plans to add a low-resolution 480p mode to its Facecam MK.2 and Facecam Neo to ensure compatibility with the Nintendo Switch 2.
Ugreen emphasizes that merely having a compatible UVC mode isn't sufficient; cameras must not signal modes the Switch can't properly utilize.
The solution to webcam compatibility with the Nintendo Switch 2 involves multiple technical conditions that must all be satisfied simultaneously.
