I mean you can, but iPhones and some Android devices are the only common devices but I'm aware of that have fast pairing. Your Nintendo switch isn't capable of having such a fast pairing pop-up

Sure, but this fast pairing “ddos” is far from the only thing a flipper can do. They’re powerful little devices. They’re not limited to this little novelty attack.
