      Yeah but let’s be real. The OG switch IS a little too big to be considered truly portable. Why they did THIS is beyond me, it seems like they could have created an entirely new actual handheld that served that purpose better, but maybe they were all out of good ideas for the next few years and figured, “Eh, whatever. People will still buy this thing.” All said, I’m in for the switch lite as well as owning a docked switch.

    If you are on a tight budget or you are a full portable gamer, or you want that longer battery life, lite is for you
    If there is a switch pro down the line, will you get it? I would buy it if it could be 1080p in handheld and 4K in docked or something crazy like that.
    I prefer the normal switch over the lite, especially the newer version with better battery life.

The only reason I would get a lite is the price, and lets be real that’s why Nintendo made it, because they knew the normal switch was over priced in lots of people’s eyes so they got rid of the options that made it a switch, the lite is just a new d.s with better graphics and new game options and a bigger screen

    That shirt is your design? Well the japanese language in it is incorrect, and I was kinda cringing at it in the earlier videos. First of all the "ー" symbol should be vertical when writing from top to bottom. Secondly, the word RPG is actually written アールピージー (aarupiijii) as opposed to アールピーギー (aarupiigii). This turns off customers, so please understand.

    I got a switch lite for the price point, I knew the screen was smaller than the regular switch but it didn’t bother me much since I got it mainly for animal crossing. I have smaller hands and for awhile I used to use a controller on Xbox that was a bit smaller than a PS4 controller for comfort, the switch lite is perfect for me with size and I tend to be a grandpa and hold screens way to close to my face anyway so screen size is okay.
    I haven’t used my lite portably because of quarantine but the exclusive games are worth it.

    Had my Lite for a week now, first Switch for me. I love it! True upgrade from my "New" 3DS. Didn't have the OG so I can't compare to see how I feel in terms of portability. One thing I will pick out is that it does get warm when playing, thus causing the clammy hand feeling. I do hope a nice Grip will alleviate this problem.

    I'd love a more in depth screen analysis like you did in another vid with the old and new Switch, but I appreciate knowing the pros and cons of a smaller screen. The dealbreaker for me though is that you can't transfer saves back and forth. Nintendo would sell way more Lites if that were possible to people who want a permanent TV setup plus a permanent handheld. Add in the better battery life for the new Switch, and I don't get the point of the Lite other than to save a few bucks.

    I'm tossing up between the two. Was thinking the Lite as handheld is what I would expect to play mainly (if I had the choice) and most people seem to say it's a little comfier to play (and of course lighter), but then I noticed there's some good grips which majorly improve handling, and nintendo life said the most comfortable experience is the original design with a grip (the satisfye one)... I would mainly play handheld at home so ultimate portability size is not that important, just comfort (bigger screen is nice too). What do you think is more comfortable Lite with grip or OG with grip? I wish I could try them somewhere with and without grip, but that's not possible... Thanks for the great videos!

    Put some into the analog stick maybe that will trigger the drift, usually overtime dust and dirt accumulate there, leading to controller drifting, there are other reasons of course but that would be an easier way to accelerate it.

      Gabriel Gandi Goesantoso I think because the base of the joysticks protrude more with the switch (and the life to my dismay) that exposes the skirt more, which leads to dust getting in there more easily.

    Are they going to come out with a switch plus... with no portable option?

      InnerRise It doesn’t fit your needs but not just your needs matter. People want a more powerful switch.

      @@Sunsetiscool who said it cant be powerful and still maintain it's purpose of being a console that can switch since it's called a switch.
      What yall are talking about Is a whole nother generation of console that nintendo hasn't made yet.

    Probably best to stick to the new Switch with the upgraded battery. The Switch Lite may have the drifting issue.

    Hey, Kevin,
    With regards to your point that a unibody design feels more right to you (because you grew up on Nintendo handhelds) - surely you would concede that Nintendo home console players are also accustomed to their controllers feeling solid and not wiggling or being composed of multiple pieces.

    Thanks for the video, it did not changed my choice in any ways on my future purchase, but now I know better about the two consoles. And I'm 100% sure now that for me, I'll buy a Switch Lite and not a regular Switch. It's kinda "sad" that it doesn't have the tremble on it, but I'll still buy it.

    Wait, since the "joycons" are permanently connected to it what happens if I get the infamous joycon drift?

      repaired or get a controller, you can sync controllers on the lite.

      @@RanLilly That second solution really isn't much of a solution because it pretty much defeats the entire purpose of a handheld system. Plus you also have to factor in that the Lite has not kickstand unlike its normal counterpart. It's clear that it was designed for handheld only and that being able to connect other controllers was just an extra/oversight depending on how you look at it. This whole system baffles me with how inept Nintendo can really be.

      Spray on the edges of the thumbsticks with compact cleaner and dry it’s with cotton buds then spin it around for 1 minute and 30 seconds , also there is no possible way it’s gonna get broken because the air compressor is made for electronic devices, hope I helped :)

    I would like a more comfortable bigger screen more powerful switch. I like to play on the tv more. Also an option in handheld mode on these to make game text bigger for games like fire emblem but that could be the game developer too.

  • @DaleWesley
    @DaleWesley Před 4 lety +1

    Something a lot of people overlook with the lite is the weight. I've been using my Switch Lite so much more than my launch Switch, because it's so much lighter. Even though it's a little more cramped, I find it more comfortable to use, because I don't have to hold it as tight as my original switch.
