The Switch Lite at $200 is solid value - but I'd still push people to pay more for a Switch that can actually, you know, Switch. Overall though, the Nintendo Switch experience in 2023 is still going strong!
- For those curious on why my Switch Lite is purple, I modded it: czcams.com/video/ybD5MVJAxvU/video.html
Awesome! In my opinion the switch lite deserves more attention and respect
@@M64brosI agree. I have the OG Switch which I stopped using in 2019 because I moved onto the Lite which is a far superior machine imo. I’ve been using the Lite for over 3 years now with no issues at all. No joy-con drift or anything but I never junk my controllers around and definitely do not own SSB, lol. If I did I would use my Pro Controller.
@@Bendaak Same here! When I originally got my original switch back in 2018 It was precisely "for the family" and not my own. I wanted my very own personal switch that I can take with me anywhere and anytime. When the switch lite got announced back in 2019 I figured I definitely wanted that for Christmas, and of course I've got it for Christmas! I had no issues with it as well and I had an absolute blast with it!
Absolutely agree, I have two lites and a regular, I never touch the lite after the first month of having them, they are too small (both the screen and the controller), and can't be played docked in a tv.
Edit:I forgot to mention the beyond abysmal battery life on the switch lite, literally 1 hour tops.
If you deny this you are just coping.
Nintendo hasn't clued in that portability is what we want. That said phones/tablets/pcs cast to Tv with ease. No one wants to always dock the console in order to play on tv. Heck I got a tv in every room that can be casted to. Save for the OLED. It's worth it.
I love my Switch Lite. I have both it and an original Switch. The Lite is a blast on the go and It honestly gets more play than any other system I own.
im actually thinking about getting another switch lite. ive had all 3 of them and honestly my lite got played more because i hardly use my tv for a switch. i have more powerful consoles for that reason uk
@@honeybadger1841 same here. My PS4 Pro, Xbox One X, and Switch don’t see as much action as my Switch Lite.
@@brichan1851 Is switch lite perfect? And is there a place to get it cheap? I really want to get one, so I can play super smash bros ultimate or Minecraft and anything else?

There’s SO much!!!
*Edited 2/12/2022
Now we have GameBoy, GameBoy Advance and METROID PRIME REMASTERED!!!!!! These make any Switch a must buy!
The Lite was my first Switch but I prefer the OLED now for the bigger and better screen. The Lite is much more comfortable to hold though. As many have said a Lite OLED would be epic.
i would buy a lite oled for somewhere around $260
if it existed
did you get the stick drift?
I doubt it’ll happen, but for me, a lite OLED would be perfect. There are laminated display mods, but they still just aren’t as good as the OLED
and it makes the most sense, i mean why make an old switch when like 50 percent of the time they play on a TV, from the start they should have made the lite OLED because it can only be used hand-held
@@vanshsureka2425 I don't see a new Switch variant coming but a "Lite OLED" for 249$ was probably the best move.
@@ignaciojosepulveda yea that’s what i mean
There's even some wiggle room to make the new screen larger.
you could just use the oled and not out it into tv mode and change the case to a nice blue
It is absolutely worth it. I have both an OLED and the lite. If you are looking for a strictly handheld device and you expect a Gameboy successor, then I honestly believe that the lite is the best option. I love the screen on the OLED but if you're happy playing on a 3DS, then the lite is a massive upgrade. It also feels way better in hand in my opinion. If there was an oled version it would be a no brainer for any handheld gaming fan.
Love my lite, it’s so comfortable, compact, and I can’t wait for a softmod to release later on. I seldom use my tv and just want something as portable as possible with a good library.
Exactly. And plus, this dude is saying "Don'T gEt a sWITcH THaT cAn't sWiTch" when it CAN switch into tabletop if you have separate joy cons or a pro controller.
I just bought the switch lite. Got a used one for $90 with everything I needed. It’s all I need since I already have consoles (PS4 & Xbox). I just wanted something for on the road. I love it! I’ve had it for about a week now
You got a used for 90???? Where ???
@@niiadjei7972 Mercari. Lady was selling it for her daughter because she didn’t want it anymore and her daughter just wanted money. She must’ve been young & only saw the dollar figure once I sent the $90 offer. I really didn’t expect it to be accepted. Came working perfectly. Luck of the draw I guess.
@@nickphillipsphotoMercari is goat, Ive bought a ps4, gamecube and pc on there. Now im thinking about getting a switch because of the steals on there.
Personally, I'd say Lite is better. It's so easy to carry around, and I already have an Xbox One, so I wouldn't want to deal with setting up a whole other home console in my house, and I would've had to if I got the OG Switch or the OLED, and discovering the Lite took care of that. Before I knew the Lite existed, I was saving up for a normal one, and the handheld one was literally the form I was looking forward to, and I knew I probably was never even going to take the Joy-Cons off, and as soon as I found out about the lite, I completely switched (no pun intended) over to it, as it was exactly what I was looking for. Today, I enjoy my Switch Lite very much, with games like SSBU, Fall Guys, Undertale and Deltarune, Pokemon Unite, Kirby, and many more. I've even tried out the home console form of the Switch (my friend let me try it out on his) and it really wasn't great. And to think that I saved exactly $100 for the Switch that was way better for me is just.....
Amazing.
You’re right. Switch games really look terrible on a TV and it looks way better on a small screen. The difference is even more noticeable when you compare it to the same games running on Xbox One and PS4. Many games look way better on Xbox One than they do on Switch docked. This is why I don’t like playing docked that much. Besides, I don’t think that most people are aware that their battery will deteriorate if they play docked. This is because the Switch will be charging the whole time that you are playing to get the battery to 100% again. Even when it is fully charged at 100%, it is still charging to maintain the charge at 100%. If you know about Lithium ion batteries, you will know what I’m getting at. Laptops have Lithium ion batteries as well. I’ve had 2 different laptops and since I didn’t have the patience to wait until it was fully charged, I always used it while it was charging. Guess what ended up happening? After around 3-4 years since purchasing it brand new, the laptops wouldn’t even turn on at all unless it was connected to a power source. It really took away the whole point of even having a laptop if I wasn’t even able to use it on the go. Don’t you think that the same thing will happen to the Switch battery in a few years? Laptop batteries can be easily replaced but the same can’t be said for Switch batteries. This is one of the main reasons why I agree with a lot of people that say that the Lite is the best model. The battery of the Lite will last for many more years before you have to replace it. People won’t be able to take the regular Switch on the go once their battery is unable to hold a charge. It will still work as a home console but it can’t be used as a handheld. This is a problem that we won’t have with the Lite. By the time that most people realise this and are faced with this problem, the next Nintendo system will be out and it will be too late for them to do anything about it. This is another problem that can be avoided with the Lite.
Same. I have both the lite and OLED and the lite gets more handheld play for me because it's lighter and more portable. Some games do look much better on TV though, like Persona 5 and other more graphically intense games (or in P5's case, a bad port).
I’m in the exact situation as you. I saw the switch lite, and considered it because I already got an Xbox one. Might go for the switch lite just for travel and on the go
Went with the Lite beause the TV isnt in my room, and my Monitor is already hooked up to my PC.
My first Switch was a Lite! I tried all 3 of them, and initally thought the Lite would always be my favorite until I got an older Switch. After that, I ended up getting a Switch OLED and don't feel the need to go for a Lite. I just have a Switch that plays physical games and one that plays digital games.
For me, not being able to play games on a larger screen isn't anywhere near a drawback. For space-saving reasons I don't have a TV, and if I want to play games on the computer then I'd open up steam. I've only ever had PC games up until now, so aside from trying a classmate's old gamecube almost 20 years ago this would be my first nintendo experience. Getting the cheapest option available seems like a reasonable way to dip my toes in. 3 hours of battery life isn't a problem either. I have a full time job and a pretty packed schedule in my free time, so I'm not worried about hitting that limit.
Update:
So it turns out that Breath of the Wild is highly addictive. That 3 hour limit is the only thing keeping me from ruining my life by non-stop gaming at this point.
My switch lite is a big part of my life. The only thing I miss is a rumble feature but besides that when I had a normal switch I only played in handheld mode so it works great for me.
We have both the OLED switch and switch lite, the dock for the switch has never left it's box. Kids just have no interest in using it docked to a TV, it seems so backward to them to play that way.
I rlly hate that the dedicated hand held version of the switch , has the worst battery of them all
I wanted to get a hand-held game system besides using gaming apps on my phone. I'm a flight attendant and sometimes do airport standby for a couple of hours. The Switch Lite is a saviour to tackle boredom while waiting around at the airport.
But, is it worth it in 2024 ?
I have a Playstation so I don't want another console but would like to be able to play Nintendo games so I think this would be perfect. Thanks for the review.
Same I have a ps5 but I feel like getting a switch lite just to play some Nintendo games
Just got a lite I’ve been so out of time didn’t even realize that they weren’t doing the ds anymore 😢
ive had my switch lite since 2019 and still love it and play games on it. ive never had any issues with joycon drift

I am considering getting a Switch Lite for vacation or traveling purposes. Judging from your suggestions and game examples on this video, I think I might consider one for getting smaller scale games specifically. Mind you, I DO have an OG switch and I love it to pieces, but sometimes I will accidentally snap off the joycon controllers when I don’t mean too when I’m playing on handheld mode. I’ll treat it like the unofficial next line for the 3DS and only keep it for like Indie games, platformers and puzzle games like Tetris. And considering that the switch JUST released GB and GBA Games for Nintendo Switch Online at the time of me typing this, I THINK now is a more appropriate time then ever to get my hands on a nice banana yellow Switch Lite, when the money is right of course.
Thank you for this video. It was super helpful.
One Month Later Edit: Got my Yellow Switch Lite and YES, I do indeed love it like I said I was. Lol
Edit #2: Don’t you just love it when Internet strangers tell you that you’ve wasted money on something you were passionate about getting no matter what? It was my decision guys, I just don’t like using the OG detachable joy con Switch when I travel okay? Leave me be and go rant somewhere else.
I never understood this. I'm sorry you're on vacation why on earth would you even want to play on it 😂😂. Problem is it waste your time which something you should not do on a vacation.
Bruh people be hating for no reason 😂 I want a switch lite, now with the new Zelda game it would be dope taking it on a trip in the airplane. Glad you enjoy you’re lite by the way about to get the blue one 🤟🏽🙌🏾 also people like to collect handhelds or just like to have different systems so just buy what you love it’s a hobby!
@@gman8796
Have you never been on vacation? There's periods of downtime such as traveling on a plane, train, bus, or taxi, waiting at the airport for your flight or for your friend who's coming from somewhere else but meeting up with you in a few hours, and after a day of fun and you just want to lay back and chill with games.
@@Lucky8s Vita better than switch
have you ever heard of traveling form point A-B?@@gman8796
I got so used to my Gameboys and 3DS's I never really gamed on a TV and take my games with me everywhere. The Lite hit the sweet spot for me...
the thing about switch lite i like the most is that they can fit my side pocket, unlike normal switch, and for me i only use switch for it's portability, so switch Lite is perfect for me
Switch Lite gets more use than any of my other consoles, I can spend hours playing games in the right light setting, but with a fluorescent light above or behind me, it gets hard to see things
If you playing multiple handheld console previous gen, Lite is the best for its size and weight, with cons no output display and battery not long lasting as V2/OLED. Also DPAD and the price tag is the strongest pro for Lite. I owned Lite Dalgia Palkia edition and recently just bought OLED Scarlet Violet, but for handheld I prefer more my Lite. Sure once I play my OLED the beautiful vivid screen is hardly to ignore, but the weight and too larger screen make me prefer to Lite more for handheld playing. Everyone have their own preference and this is just my humble opinion and preferrence. I owned Vita and PSP on the past thats why Lite was the best for me.
I have a full-fat switch,but I’m contemplating getting a lite because of it’s smaller form factor,wondering if it would be good to carry around in a shoulder bag/fannypack
Just ordered the Switched lite for my son. His 5th bday is on the 18th and no I don't think he's ready for the Switch yet. He is sooo rough with his Xbox one So I want to start him off small
Get a shell and screen protector for the switch lite if he is rough with the xbox one
I’ve always been fond of Nintendo’s handheld gaming since the OG GameBoy. I still have an Advance SP, a DS Lite and a Switch Lite. I plan to mod the GBA SP eventually and my DS has hinge issues. The Switch Lite has some joystick issues. The one snapped off. They are easily replaceable with no soldering. I use each one still and the fact one is over 20 years old and the other approximately 15+, I would say Nintendo makes the best handhelds. PSP had such great potential but unfortunately, Sony abandoned ship on the handheld platform. I haven’t owned a Switch OG or OLED to compare the experience but the absence of being able to play on the tv is a downside to using the Lite.
As someone who's behind the wheel like 90% of my life, this is a perfect companion for me. I still have a charger in the truck all the time, so the battery life isn't that important, but I want something small so I can play games while waiting the cargo to be loaded/unloaded and to relax after a long drive. I've looked both at OLED, Lite and Steam Deck even (but it's more expensive), and made the decision to get a switch lite. First Nintendo console in my life actually.
Can you use the lite as an extra controller? Like, pair it to your switch as a 3rd or 4th controller?
you have the best intros and music sountracks
Any form of Nintendo Switch is still worth it. With its massive library, it is worth it for preservation of physical games. We are heading towards an all digital future aka the SteamDeck and XBOX line of systems, but if anyone who is a physical collector and is still yet to get a Switch, the Switch imo is a very collectible system. Any physical game that has a chance to be rare like The Caligula Effect, I am snapping up.
The Switch and the current generation 9 of gaming may very well be the last generation for physical games. We don't know for sure, but I am not taking anything for granted.
"Preservation of physical games" is an oxymoron. Physical games will not preserve, they'll wither. Digital on the other hand is always preserved.
@@TheMahayanist Not if they include online DRM and/or server requirements. There have been multiple instances of digital games becoming unplayable recently, due to servers being taken down.
Just got the Nintendo switch lite turquoise color and got Mario kart and forager with it very happy
before I though about buying the switch, I new nintendo would make revisions, my first choice would have been the switch lite but got scared of the joycon drift issue, so I instead bought the V2 version
I own both an og switch & Switch Lite. I spend a lot of time playing on my Switch Lite my og Switch is almost always docked but I do take it out of the dock sometimes
I had a Switch lite first before getting a switch oled with the lite. And I dare say it was great, and still is.
I can totally see use for Switch Lite especially if you have the Oled that you use for yourself and home use (docked with tv) + have kids. You may not want them using/taking your fav Oled out so Lite may be better for them (less parts to lose, cheaper, you can still play Oled at home) or even for yourself when the big console is stuck with tv most of times. Lite is smaller so for people with smaller hands and as such even younger kids its obviously easier to play with lighter, smaller device. I owned all versions of Switch and for me only use (and at home) Oled is best but Lite is great when Oled is docked for tv use:) + just the feeling of Lite is more wholesome for some reason.
Can't believe this is 4 years old. I just found out about it less than a year ago.
I love the switch in general. I’ve owned a few since launch and I’m actually stuck between choosing a lite or the OLED I currently have a I don’t do that much gaming at one go. I wouldn’t sit down and play like say 5hours + gaming. I love the handheld as the buttons are so soft and the console itself feels so good in the hands while playing. Yes the battery life won’t be the greatest but I don’t think that’ll affect me
I had my original switch since Christmas 2019 but I don’t play it very often since I got my ps5 and I haven’t played it docked in nearly 2 years. I still want to play switch games so should I sell my old switch and get a lite?
Switch parts are cheap and easy to find. You won't need to solder anything to replace even the battery. I don't think joycon drift will be a problem on switch lite
I had my switch lite since August 2020 no joycon drift at all. I also have the separate joycons as well since the same Time period no joycon drift on those either.
I got this year a Switch Lite just to play Pokémon Shield, Shantae and other 2D indie games, because I already have a PC and a PlayStation, so I see the Lite as the handheld console that plays 2D or basic 3D games and Pokémon, just like a Game Boy, and those games tbh can benefit from a smaller screen, but if you want to play the biggest releases or maybe some of Nintendo's own AAA games, you may like a regular Switch, but for smaller games the Lite is really awesome, can't go wrong with a dedicated portable.
I had all models and the TV mode is honestly overrated. You can totally do without the TV mode because many games look really blurred and stretched out on a large TV. It’s easy to tell that many games were meant for a small screen and it looks much better, and more enjoyable on a small screen anyway. It really has to do with whether you need something to display on a TV. If you’re the introverted type of gamer like me (just like most people in Japan), you are probably the selfish type of gamer that always plays alone. Maybe it’s because you’re on the go most of the time and you don’t have time to play at home. If that’s the case, I think that the Lite is the best model, hands down. This is the only model that I feel comfortable with in bed or taking on the go. The regular and OLED are not true portables and you always get this weird feeling that something might break, come apart or go missing. With the Switch Lite, it’s all one piece so there’s less moving parts and less things that you can lose. If you take the regular Switch on the go, you can lose one or both of the joycons if you’re in a hurry to catch a bus or train etc. These things can happen and you should never rule it out. You can also lose or misplace the joycon straps if you have the regular Switch or OLED. This is just one less headache to worry about if you have the Switch Lite instead. Most people don’t care about motion controls and they prefer standard controls, so if you play mostly on the go and don’t care about motion controls, the choice is easy. You’ve already narrowed it down and the Switch Lite isn’t missing any feature that you’re actually going to use. If you’re not going to use the motion controls or the TV mode, there’s no point in getting the regular Switch. Personally, I feel that the Lite is the best model because it feels like a true portable that reminds me of the Gameboy and PSP, it is the most ergonomic and most comfortable, it does everything that the more expensive models can do, and it is less likely to break or come apart due to there being less moving parts. The main thing that you’ll have to sacrifice is TV mode but if you’re like me and none of your friends or people that you care about are into gaming, you’ll be playing on your own anyway, so you don’t need something that displays on a TV for everyone to see. If you’re the family type and you have friends/family that want to see what’s going on, you might think differently but this works just fine for people like me. It’s the people like us that the Lite is meant for. It’s not meant for everyone but if you’re the selfish, introverted type of gamer that wants something for your own enjoyment and for no one else, this is the perfect handheld.
Thank you for this comment you helped me make my desicion
Looks stretched out because the Switch has outdated hardware from 2017 that can barely do 900p these days.
Thank you bruh im buying the lite because of you!
I’m an Xbox and VR gamer for different experiences but I feel like the lite is something I’d only play if I’m going somewhere like ok king road trips. I wouldn’t want to pay 350 for something that I know I wouldn’t play ALL the time.
Where did u get the purple Gameboy color case is it? For your lite?
i wish they would release something like a switch lite xl. if im home im playing on pc i only use it on the go but i do love having a big high quality screen on the device
Hi just wanted to ask I have a PS4 and a pc so would it be good for me if I want to have it as a handheld
My first ever switch was the LITE, last year I upgraded in december to Oled however my switch lite still sees usage
Some switch games are just not well optimised for portable use. For example fire emblem engage. The fonts are so small it prevents me from playing for more than an hour.
I haven't wanted a console since the PS3 era. I have recently become interested in owning a handheld again as tablet/android gaming feels pretty bad 90% of the time.
I also am VERY interested in Tears of the Kingdom because I played Breath of the Wild on a WiiU emulator and that was one game that almost tipped the scales for me purchasing a switch lite.
So as a person who wants a handheld console again I'm seriously considering getting a switch lite. I'll wait for the launch of Tears of the Kingdom to make sure it's worth it before I buy though
As someone who did, it's worth. Especially now, it's pretty cheap new and even more end hand
I just brought mine like a week ago and I love it so far
Thanks this rlly helps cuz my family have a shared switch and I was thinking about getting myself a switch lite so thanks for this it helps alot
I have series s and regular switch and doesnt have money to buy games is worth to sell my switch v1 buy lite with games or ps vita oled cfw or new.3 ds xl with cfw
I am rocking my own Nintendo Switch Lite Pokemon Edition 🤠❤️
I have the switch lite and I love it the other switch consoles would make makes no sense to me because I have the ps5 and that is of course my main console I play all the time but I love my switch lite can play it on the go if I’m travelling sitting on the sofa it’s my console when I’m unable to get access to my Ps5. My on the go console love it!
Hi 91 tech! I love your videos.
I’m considering to buy a Nintendo Switch whether it’s oled or the lite model. I won’t be playing with the dock thus i don’t know what to get. Is it better to wait for the Switch which rumors say it will be released this year or the other? If someone with knowledge about the subject replies i would really appreciate it!
I'm waiting my Switch Lite blue purple arriving 💜. Can't wait ! And also I want to buy a digital Metroid Prime Remastered 😁
I prefer the switch lite, I always have it with me, super easy to carry around without having to worry about the joy sticks or whatever they’re called
You probably mean "joycons" but if you're referring to joysticks, you might actually have to worry for them
Strange there never was a Lite Oled. And will the follow up to Switch have an Oled screen at launch
Had my switch lite since December 2019 and bought BOTW with it, still love it to bits!
It's easy to hold, and for me personally, I have a hard time reading text from the TV when I sit on the couch, so having a handheld that doesn't feel heavy is so nice! I eventually want a normal switch, but only if my lite dies LOL
The Nintendo switch, can you connect to Bluetooth earbuds and wifi?
Id wait tho, im pretty sure they may make a switch lite oled, becuase it makes the most sense
how do you get it to be purple and change the button colors?
I got my switch lite because my sister took over the family switch and I never initially used it on the tv
With all this content both now and way back I think it's safe to say Josh from 91 Tech would have a heart attack if Nintendo and Apple collaborated on something.
Lol
Ok so I am in a bit of confusion so like I live in my dorm and haven't really had the chance of playing games that much but I want to in the free time that I get so like I am planning on getting one of the switch consoles but I am confused which one I should go for as I live in a dorm and do not have a TV to plug a OLED or original switch to plug into I was thinking about getting a light and save a couple of bucks and get more games instead with that money but on the other hand that OLED looks sick af . Any suggestions
i have a similar situation. i'm leaning towards the lite. i think you should too.
I chose the switch lite over the others because I prefer playing in hand held mode when mum is on the xbox series x
Haha same mum told me not to disturb her when she's playing with my wii wii 😊!
I have had a Switch since 2017, and I didn't really use it much. Just had it for Zelda/Mario/Metroid/ etc.
I recently decided to get the switch lite, I'm honestly not even sure WHY.
I'm so upset I waited this long.
It's so so so so so much more comfortable than the regular switch.
It also FITS IN MY ****ING POCKET... which, was the biggest issue with the original model for me.
Taking that anywhere was a joke.
With the cloud saves now though, I feel like I have the best of both worlds.
Though... atm I feel like I'm going to be playing with the lite 90% more anyway.
since the year 2012 when i first played skyrim it has been my dream to play skyrim on the go and the other options such as the gpd win or the other 2 switches just were just too expensive for me so when i heard about the lite i was so excited ive been playing for a year now and it has been great truly recommend
Well hey the screen may be smaller, but i bet it would look way better than 3ds smash compared to ultimate on the lite if your only playing handheld.
Call me crazy or not but maybe I’m overthinking it lol. So I have a switch oled but what I’ve noticed is I barley play it on the tv and whenever I do want to use it I play it on handheld. With the oled it’s comfortable and the screen is beautiful but if I want to play handheld most of the time. The lite sounds more comfortable and durable to bring and play on the go. What do y’all think.
So I love my switch it was an amazing console but as I started playing more high end games it became harder for me to enjoy games that I love like breath of the wild etc so for me when I upgraded to the oled it was just epic in handheld mode I love my switch lite but I love my oled alot more now both amazing
How can i get my lite or switch to look like that see through one he has
Ive had every version of the switch since day one. Ive had the oled since release and i constantly have issues with my joy cons. I kinda hate using them honestly. They wiggle and feel really weak and ive gotten to thinking about what to do then i remembered about the lite. Im seriously considering that one instead
Does Nintendo switch light have Pokémon fire red and leaf green diamond and pearl black and white emerald black and white 2 and the gold versions
Does switch lite take physical games??
I know this may not be possible for a lot of people. However, I have both the OLED and the Lite. For me the OLED is way too nice for me to carry outside the house so I usually just leave it home and will use that when I am inside the household. However, I bring my Lite with me everywhere and I love it. IF you can do this, I recommend it.
so wait, the nitendo switch lite is just smaller version and can’t be connected to the TV? is that all? cause will it still be updated the same way as the main nitendo switch in terms of games? like for example how xbox 1 games don’t exist in xbox 360 or how some games only exist on PS5 and not PS4? sorry if i missed thus explanation
I own all three versions of the switch. I love the switch.
If you do not own one, I recommend the OLED. It gives you the ability to do everything in terms of owning the switch family at best.
That being said, the switch lite is so cheap in price, and it just feels significantly better in the hand; portability wise and price. You can get a refurbished lite for around 150$, and it's exactly the same hardware as it's sisters, minus the TV output. Incredibly light, and fits in my pocket easier.
It seemed stupid at first when it was announced... But Nintendos design really shines, and it feels solid for its purchase power. If you want portability, this is not a bad option.
I use both my flagship OLED and Lite about the same now.
I recently bought a Switch Lite and it is definitely still worth buying in 2023. I love it. My kid never leaves home without it.
I have a switch lite, my aunt bought it for me. It's amazing!! But one tiny problem is I can't stream it. Looking on how to hack it at least.
Is the Mario Cart Nintendo switch the same as the “new” model of Nintendo switch, is it the same?? I am questioning this since it comes with that game I think and I wanted to see if it was as good?
The red box I mean as the “new” one.
The original one sorry, forgot to mention, there are so many-
One more, what is the difference with oled and original?
Analog stick problem can be solved?
I have the Splatoon Oled Switch but I’m looking into a Switch lite for taking on holidays
Just upgraded from my lite to an oled and it's worth the jump , if nintendo would've made this the actual best option for portable play , then I would probably have both , and use the og/Oled model on the TV and while at home sitting on the couch , then when I go to leave pick up my lite and take it with me , but they didn't, so imma sell my lite , but it will be missed and is definitely a great console
I’m scared that I’ll buy it and a new one will come out. Also already have the regular switch so not sure if it’s worth it. Just really want something I feel more comfortable traveling with like the lite.
it’s cheap
I am with the v1
And i am prity happy with my switch
I have only change the drifting joy cons with hori Split Pad Pro
So I have my original V1 let’s go edition switch, the new OLED Pokémon switch and the Zacian and Zamazenta lite. As you can tell I have a Pokémon addiction 😂. But they all work in tandem together. My OLED is amazing handheld and the better battery over the V1 is much better. My V1 is almost purely docked now as I have two better handheld experiences. The OLED is my primary switch doing both handheld and docked depending on my mood to be honest 😂. But my lite is used for when I’m going out and it’s more portable and easier to move around. It’s a bit unconventional but it works
Not plying any coop, having a 75 inches 4K tv (not a good choice for Switch games most of the time) and being interested mostly in Nintendo First Party games (I have a decent PC for other games), i think the Lite would be much better for me. ;)
Thanks for the good pointers.
Glad I could help :)
What was the game at 3:00?!
I already own a switch but my wife and I are going on a 2 week vacation in the summer and wanted to get something sorta small, easy to carry and a good game library. I was going to get a modded GBA but I realized switch lite is less than one of those which is kinda silly (in my opinion) especially when you look at the library of games available.
Love my switch lite. Its gray and I got it pre owned
you can only have cloud saves if you have a switch online subscription? never mind I'm def not getting a switch lite then
When ever the Steam Deck comes up, I'm always reminded of the GameBoy vs the GameGear and the Lynx. Both were bigger than the GameBoy, had more power, played in full color(the GameBoy only had maybe 4 shades of grey), and was more expensive. The GameBoy thrashed the competition, despite it's under preformance.
The Switch and the Steam Deck is the same issue. The Steam Deck is bigger than the Switch, has more power, plays full PC games, and is a bit more expensive. I guarantee that the Switch is going to preform better and it's already doing wonders
I want to get a switch lite or two for my younger siblings, but im worried about drift. Is this still a serious problem? Ive had 2 sets of joycons go bad from drift
You can replace the joycon sticks. They're only attached with 2 screws and a ribbon cable. I swapped the ones in my switch lite just for the look. You just calibrate it in the settings after install. They were only $12 for 2. You can follow CZcams tutorials, one side is harder to replace because you have to take off the heat pipe which I recommend repasting of you do
I got myself one at one point and at first i did like it. I got it cause i share my switch with my brother but it is a pain since we both tried to play games at the same time that were downloadable the other one wouldn't play. Not only that the screen was tad small and had get magnify glass cause some text were rather small. Did end up having to sell it and kind miss it
I have three different switches, lite, standard, and oled and never have I experienced joy-con drift.
I want a regular switch really bad but the price is a big deal breaker for me considering popular games Arnt very cheap either could someone recommend me the cheapest place I can get a decent condition switch for a good price?
If the switch lite is supposed to be portable then it would mean that it would be brought around right? But it has the shortest battery.
Is it easy to jailbreak like Wii?
I went from the regular one to the lite and I’m glad. I really didn’t like how flimsy the joy cons are and I already have like 4 consoles hooked up to my tv
I have switch lite. My only complain is battery. 2-3hrs at best since i got it 2 weeks ago
