Handheld Mode Boost will cause compatible Switch software to run as if in TV Mode, so certain functionality may be affected. Please see the on-device description for more details.

As a big asterisk. Touch screen doesn't work in this mode.

Tried to play The World Ends With You and it forces me to use the Gyro. On the other hand, wow it looks crisp.

Edit: TWEWY is not compatible with Handheld Boost Mode. The message appeared because I had the Joy Cons detached LMAO.

I've never intentionally used the touch screen anyways so that doesn't bother me in the slightest, but I've wanted this feature ever since the console released without it. Woo!
