NINTENDO Nintendo Switch Lite Announced : Dedicated for Handheld Play
- Thread starter JANARIOO
- Start date
the OG switch is handheld and docked both so doesn't really concern anyone who already has a switch tbh.
Most of the appeal of NS for me came from being able to play Pokemon on a big screen. I'll keep waiting for a price drop.
More compact and cheaper version + smooth colors already loving it, gonna buy it for sure.
and what are you talking about guys from 6.2" to 5.5" ain't a big difference, its for the people who never owned Switch or wanted cheaper version and handheld only.

Pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch Lite are now live across the internet. Most major retailers have opened up orders for the upcoming handheld Switch console, which will be released on Sept. 20, alongside the Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakeningremake.
Nintendo’s much-rumored Switch Lite was finally announced in June, with a flashy commercial and plenty of details about the new console. Unlike the Nintendo Switch, the Switch Lite won’t have detachable Joy-Cons, though it can wirelessly connect to Switch accessories including Joy-Cons and Pro Controllers. It will also have a smaller screen than the original Switch, though the Lite does boast a longer battery life (3 to 7 hours of play) and a proper D-pad.
The biggest difference, though, is that the Switch Lite is a handheld-only console, perhaps driving the final nail in the coffin for Nintendo’s 2DS and 3DS devices. There is currently no way to connect the Switch Lite to a television, it can only be played as a handheld console.
Switch Lite consoles come in three colors: turquoise, gray and yellow. A special pink and blueZacian and Zamazenta Edition Switch Lite console, tied to the release of Pokémon Sword andShield, hits shelves on Nov. 8. The game launches a week later, on Nov. 15.
Currently Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and GameStop have opened pre-orders for the new handheld console. As of this writing, Walmart hasn’t posted a listing; we’ll update this post as more pre-orders go up.

I got the turquoise one and I've been loving it so far! I already ordered mario maker 2 for it. However I do suggest buying a pro controller after some time because the left analog stick might get joy con drift. I haven't experienced joycon drift but I will still buy a pro controller next week or so.

Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.

XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
