Nintendo Switch Lite

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Sat Jul 13, '19, 8:28 pm

Look for a new gaming console from Nintendo coming in September of this year 2019. The new Nintendo Switch Lite gaming console is handheld and expected to cost around $200.00. It will also be available in different colors of grey, yellow, and turquoise. I wish they would have added pink (oh well, maybe later).

What does everyone think about this new console? Is the price too high or just right? Will you buy it? What color will you get?

It’s a good option for those who use their Switch mostly or exclusively undocked. I know such folks exist. A little cheaper but will play most of the Switch library. There’s only a few games that can be played exclusively while docked. I play mine a mix of docked and undocked, so at least for now, passing this by personally, but I’m glad the option will soon exist.
Next Pokemon game(s): Pearl

Other games: Skyrim Special Edition (Switch), Spyro Reignited Trilogy (Switch & PS4), Okami (Switch & PS4)
Other gaming goals: completing a Living Pokedex (minus some event Pokes) and going through at least 1 game per generation

I use my Switch almost entirely undocked, but I don't take it out with me that often since it's more of a backpack portable than a pocket portable, if that makes sense. The Lite seems to be more pocket-able, so I'm personally excited for it. I'm going to miss the HD Rumble, though.

Same, Flames. I don't carry it around the same way I do my 3DS or DS, or at least not nearly as often. I tend to use it portable around the house. But I do sometimes throw it in a bag or backpack if I know I'm going to want to play something specific on it while out and about.
