A bit of a silly rant here but I've always said that handheld game consoles have the worst commercials when it comes to what you get compared to what they sell you. Surprisingly so Every ad for a major handheld shows the owner taking their device to an exclusive party full of models at the top of a Dubai skyscraper and either becoming the life of the party or starting a fuckin LAN party with 6 other friends that also brought their handheld. It's insane. Fuckin...every ad at some point has to show to some guy at the beach playing their handheld before some hot chick comes over and asks for a go at Zelda or whatever. They bond over Metroid Prime or some shit. It's comical. The truth is that 99% of handheld usage is done by someone taking a shit or laying in bed covered in snack crumbs. Very few actually use a handheld "on the go" outside of a plane or school. I recall the Vita branding itself as a device that would allow a young businessman to start a game of MLB The Show on his PS4...at 7am before work...and continue the same game on the bus when he left for work. Nobody in the history of ever has done that. Sure, you may have taken a handheld to work so you can play on break or whatever but no corporate junior executive has ever sat at the back of a bus...in a major city...and not only played a game but celebrated like a jackass while doing so 😅 You'd get jumped and robbed doing that bullshit. It's just amazing how handheld commercials lie more than alcohol ads and car ads! Like, you may actually get laid after drinking that shit if, say, a woman also drank a bunch of the same shit. Buy booze. You may get laid. That car/truck may get you laid or allow you to haul more lumber or whatever. Buy car/truck and haul more lumber. However, no, buying this handheld won't allow you entrance into The Roman Collusium at night to play a 10 person game of Mario Kart with your supermodel friends. Zero chance. None. Zero. 😅

Im my honest opinion.

I like tabletop mode as well, but I can always get a kickstand accessory to prop up the Lite.

I often find the standard model on sale around $250. So for $50 more, you get an $80 dock, detachable controllers, rumble, the right joy-con sensor, the ability to play on tv and the ability to swap joy cons in case they drift. The lite is appealing, but I just don't see the value. You're also blocking access to, not a large, but a significant portion of the library. If they can produce a pro model with a similar form factor, they would be unstoppable.

Nice to see a more sensible review. I’ve been sick of listening to all the “shouty” tech reviews that just list all the things it doesn’t do.

I have owned two switch consoles and got rid of them both due to creaky joy cons that become loose over time when using hand held. I now have the lite and it’s perfect for Handheld lovers.

Having an original Switch the Lite doesn't really appeal to me much. The main culprit is Nintendo's handling of sharing your library and saves between two systems, which is a lot more inconvenient than it needs to be, but than again I feel as though this system wasn't intended for people like my self but for people that are looking to make a nice gift or those looking to get into the Switch for a cheaper price. If I could give any advice to someone whose considering a Lite it would be to wait and save up another hundred and get the regular Switch, the amount of extras is well worth it. I know if I bought the Lite as my first system I'd always regret not getting the original Switch.

@@PurushNahiMahaPurush That's very true, in a twisted way it's part of Nintendo's charm, their signature if you will.

2:19 Except tabletop play is possible with switch controllers (sold separately and having to prop the console up of course but still, i can do it with the flip cover). I did bring a joy con with me and played fifa against a friend on his switch lite while he was holding it though.. cool experience actually

I'm getting the Switch Lite only for the Witcher 3 alone! Awesome review DF!

Dirty dirty Radeon

Sorry for you loss Richard.

Having the capability to connect to a tv is still a feature I often use and for multiplayer games it is essential.

Meh, this system isn't for people that want that functionality though so it succeeds.

Well yes, but some of the defining Switch experiences and best selling titles, such as SSB and MK, are next to useless on this machine. Thus Richard’s comment that handheld only is the true form of the system is hardly accurate. That is not to say there isn’t a market for it, but the compromise not to fully support essential software makes this version of the hardware less essential.

10:18 The OG Switch had a screen change. I have the newer version with less yellow shift.
