I have three of these and finished using them for original use, they use displaylink technology and cable, worked fine for my windows 10 laptop to support 3 screens, I want to try plugging into gaming console like nintendo switch or xbox one.

I think it may work, but will require obscure adapters as these are usb A to micro B cable, the consoles can output hdmi or usb c, so I'm not sure what adapter to try, and if it's possible, but someone here may know.

I don't want to sell them they aren't worth much on ebay but for portable gaming monitors they can be useful.

Any tips to try appreciated.
