Works with Nintendo Switch?

No. The Switch, or Nintendo, does not have a standard implementation of the video signal. This means that you need an adapter that pretends the Switch has the Nintendo dock and then outputs the video signal via HDMI. But I don't know if this monitor understands an HDMI signal via Type-C. Example: YCCTEAM Switch Dock -> HDMI to USB Type-C -> Dell monitor. You have to try it

I tried part 2 straight away, the monitor starts with a USB power supply. So far so good. But I doubt that you can get the signal to the monitor with the adapter mentioned in part 1 of the question. The signal path would be from the source with DVI/HDMI/VGA to the monitor with USB-C. Usually such adapters work the other way round, but I'd be happy to be proven wrong here. That would also be an intended use for me.

Hello, I think it should work. However, you would have to buy a special adapter for it. (see link below) https://tipps.computerbild.de/mobil/ios/ipad-externer-monitor-so-verbinden-sie-ihn-875811.html

This will not work, it would require the corresponding driver support in the switch operating system. These adapters need a graphics driver. However, the USB-C port of the switch transmits a DP video signal in so-called alternate mode. If a monitor or an adapter can handle this, it will work (at your own risk!, try googling): https://gbatemp.net/threads/can-the-switch-output-the-display-over-usb-c.546032/ https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/which-1080p-portable-monitor-is-right-for-your-nintendo-switch
