I invested in a Switch Lite and it’s been great. It’s the best feature of the Switch pared down to just the essential form.
Bought mine for 80$ used with great condition and a few games too , its so worth it for casual people
Where did ya happen to get it? Thanks
@@cooldaddyfunkI’m getting mine’s for a $100 at FB marketplace

Nice!
@@That_Random_Guy437 Definitely not eBay lol
I tried but ended up paying 170 in the end. Plus I have to replace the fan
Still want a switch lite oled. Better battery, better cooling system, larger stretched screen, etc. I love the switch lite is one whole piece compared to the regular switch. I also hope for purple and/or lavender version at some point too. I kind of wish the thumb sticks weren't modeled after the joycons of the switch. But it was probably cheaper than making a separate thumb sticks just made for switch lite
PEAK Michael content! These types of videos are always my favorite of yours
Yes sir!!! 🔥
Those special Pokemon editions look nice. My favorite of the regular switch lites is the turquoise, I have one too.
Nice!
I have an Oled and keep coming back to the lite. Both are shell swapped and the lite looks sexier. That's why I keep coming back to it lol great vid
Thanks, glad you liked it! ✌️
I only have a switch lite not a regular one, it is the perfect console for me. Still underrated by the most people
What’s very nice about that d&p switch lite is that it looks like a mini version of the bigger gray switch
I love the switch lite!
Ive bought 5 switch lites on the secondary market for my myself, my kids and my niece and nephew. I wait for good deals or damaged systems since the switch is relatively repair friendly.
I managed to snag a switch lite for 40usd! It needed new joysticks and a full shell and lcd/digitizer replacement, but even with all those components, it still only cost me half what a new one would and now it has a sweet transparent shell and hall effect joysticks that will never drift!
That’s awesome!! 🔥
Love the fire emblem three houses sticker on your switch. The black eagles are the best house. Edit: the demonic food fight was hilarious.
Thanks! I wish they still carried the skin in stores because I had the skin on my right Joy-Con but Nintendo threw it away when I sent my Joy-Cons to them get them repaired.
just got mine today it the perfect handheld device. but I think the screen was so small for me when playing NBA 2k24. but still i love it, I considered buying the oled but the price different was just so big for just a screen upgrade.
I literally just got a switch lite today and I love it.
Nice!!!
Now I love the Nintendo switch. I got the yellow lite and the Zelda OLED. I’m debating which one to use and keep. I love the lite with its comfort and style of the unibody. I also love the OLED for its size and the availability to connect to the tv. Which should I do? Especially with Wonder coming out this weekend.
How come you can’t keep both?
@@Mikeinoid I could but I always alternate between the two and I would prefer just keep one.
Get the Zelda OLED and if you hate the comfort, get a hori pad controller, pro controller or third party controller.
Can confirm that the Lite feels amazing to play and hold in your hand! I have a day one Switch, V2 system, OLED and a Lite and even though I don't use it much, it feels 10x better than my other systems.
I had bought 3 switch lite over different times never did get the regular console the last lite is mine and I customized it with a case I ordered and a memory card is a must have, I dont see the point in a cartridge when I have many games on a SD card. I have my computer at home it is a stationary unit so it is nice having something portable that is better for gaming than my PC.
I got a grey edition switch lite back in 2020. I wasn’t disappointed but then it got stick drift and then I realised i should have gotten the turquoise like i originally wanted lol.
Somehow I'm back on board with my Lite. She's been retired for a bit, but now I have reasons to carry it with me. I did think they had to fix lites for free as well because of the lawsuit,
I really want the purple/blue switch lite because it reminds me of the Gameboy Advance SP. playing Metroid and Pokémon on it.
I just wished it was way mroe comfortable to hold, although you'l get used to it and becomes comfortable overtime. And lastly, It could've been a lot better if it had a lot longer battery life span, although you can compensate this by lowering rhe brightness
Going to buy one since I am always on the go.
Nice!
Even if it doesn't have all the features as the regular switch this console has definitely aged well and has some great editions that came along the way. Wish they fixed the damn drift tho
I wished they fixed it too!
Yeah stick drift was the one thing stopping me from copping one of these. Buying new joycons is one thing, having to learn how to install joysticks and risk messing up my switch is another.
All the consoles ps5 series x/s have stick drift@@B0110CK5
@@SophTsir it happens to both, joy con drift is the biggest enemy to switch players
Love my Yellow Switch Lite
I have at this point 3 switchs in my house, i have my laucnh switch my Fiancée has her Animal Crossing New Horizons edition and i have just bought the AC:NH Lite. I like it so far i understand that drift is a thing but im going replace the joy-con
I just bought my first Nintendo switch lite last week and loving it hahaha my first adult money well spent 😂
Congratulations!! 🎊
It seems like Nintendo is never going to make a successor for 3DS. And everyone else is trying to make their own Switch, instead of unique handheld system.
If 3DS can't have have a successor, then why can't we have a new handheld challenger, like Game Gear, Neo Geo Pocket or Wonderswan? Seriously, I want to play any potential new Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Owl House, Digimon and even Skylanders games on a handheld system.
there's a reason they released the Switch Lite right around the time 3DS support was dropped. They were aiming at selling to those handheld customers, a device closer to that form factor and portability the OG Switch doesn't deliver.
I myself went straight to the Lite from 3DS. Not so sure if i would get a Switch if they didnt relase the Lite model. OG model is just not that good for handheld mode.
I wish that red switch lite came true. Or wish they had a dark green or a white switch. So many color options I want lol
Those would be cool!
I got the grey switch lite as a gift and it was great for me since I could play all the games I had and the switch I had at the time was shared and got stick drift extremely bad.
Dang that sucks!
It’s gonna be 4 years old on the 20th
Tomorrow!
As a mostly single player handheld player of Nintendo games, the lite is all I want and need and it’s kinda a perfect handheld system. My 8 year old self would have killed to have this over the game boy or ds
I am getting one for Christmas as my 2017 switch overheats a lot and has terrible battery life
Yeah sometimes mine overheats too
Even though I have an launch day Switch I'm still thinking of buying it. I don't like how clunky the standard Switch is to take with you.
You really can’t go back to bring a regular Switch in the go after taking a Switch Lite. The size is perfect!
@@Mikeinoid agreed. Playing on the go is amazing with the Lite. It fits in a jacket pocket just fine.
so is it worth it to buy a switch lite if i don’t have any switch systems so i can experience the switch before the new nintendo system comes out. or should i wait for the new one
It's up to you. If you can wait till the next system comes out then just wait but most likely (just my speculation) the new Nintendo system would be backwards compatible with Switch games so you can buy a Switch now and then sell the system when the new console comes out.
I'd say jump the gun. I bought the Switch lite a month ago and it's honestly the best purchase I've made. I'm not worried about the new switch since I can enjoy the massive library the current gen has while waiting for the new one!
@@vsm351 yep, i bought one for around 130 at a local game store and it was worth it especially since i use it as my main handheld and secondary console
I reallt wish they came out oled lite.
That would be fiya I love the switch lite plays all the games on the main consoles but slight downside is the battery life of the lite so if they did that it would be successful
I’m still rocking my Switch lite after two years, but I’m thinking about getting the OLED later this year.
I think you’re good with the Switch Lite, unless you find an OLED for a really good deal!
@@Mikeinoid true and I still have my original switch that still works great if I ever want to go back to playing on a TV.
Just wait for switch 2 announcement
brother you get the first drift joycon in 3 years ? if i dont ear wrong right ?
Yup
I had a gen1 switch, ended up giving it to my sister. Picked up a switch lite 2 days ago and I’m sucked in. Best dedicated handheld ever. Found myself playing hours of Let’s Go Pikachu throughout the day between chores and some lite work. Didn’t even wanna jump on my pc
Let's go!!!
Did you find the switch lite was easier to replace parts on than the joycon?
I haven’t worked on a Joy Con before but I can imagine it’s also easy to repair.
If my switch gets the drift problem, I could just buy a pro controller and connect it to my switch lite and use that, right?
Yup!
I want to buy a switch lite for christmas but i can't decide between the turquoise one or the coral one lol
Go turquoise:3
I want a lite but the drift sucks. I’m really bad at fixing things so I’d probably break it when trying to fix it :/
i just bought a 3 weeks old switch lite on ebay for135€
with case
absolute great
Nice!!
I went through several lites due to drift before buying an OLED model
RIP
all I want is a Switch 2 Lite that hopefully has OLED
DS Lite 2016? I think you mean 2006.
I think I said 2006. If not then yes I mean 2006
Only thing thats keeping me from getting this is the infamous drift issue
I understand 😭
Bought it last year
Nice!
Oh wow I’ve had my switch for 4 years. 😊
Nice!
That most definitely is blue
What's the game at 11:07?😮
It’s called Dadish! There’s 4 games from the series out on Switch which go on sale for cheap but you can get them for free on mobile!
So wait we cant use it as a controller by itself on a regular switch??m
Unfortunately, no. 🥲
@@Mikeinoid 😓😓😓 oh no 🙆
2:30 No just use " AN " not A. This mistake is too common. 4:56 It's called indigo or warm blue if you paint.
The official name is blue lol
can the joystick be replaced with a HE stick??
HE stick?
@@Mikeinoid hall effect 😆😆
@@b4b4Y4G4 Oh 😂 I’m not sure honestly
It's just dust blow on the sticks and it goes away👍
Doesn't work all the time, unfortunately. But may work temporarily.
Worked for me👍@@Mikeinoid
After watching this video, i regret now getting yellow
Bro, idk, i want to buy a switch lite these days, but the drifting scares me
I understand 😂
👍
👍
Pretty sure the second "blue" one is supposed to be the indigo color nintendo has used on just about everything handheld as well as the gamecube , it isnt the best match though
Right! The Gamecube is more purple while the Switch Lite is more blue.
Yea super strange color choice on their part
I like that color a lot, it reminds me of the classic GBA
Its a handheld that can connect to a tv. Real consoles are the ps5 and series x. I just won a switch lite. I have no need to connect to a tv. Handheld
Honestly, the switch lite could be better if you could turn it into a wii u gamepad but for the switch. That would be smart.
That would be dope!
Nintendo switch lite is great but analog stick drifting is what making me not get one and plus wish they fix their cloud saving feature
I agree!
i have switch lite but i want oled because have long battery life.. better i buy oled or no?😂
Switch OLED is really good! If you have the money, get the OLED
I recently got a switch lite. It's a good system. The only problem I have is how stupid expensive the games are. I try to buy games on the second hand market.
I've been getting games second hand more recently. Cheapest and quickest way to grow a Switch collection!
The best switch
Dissing the Pokémon color
I'll take it back since I have it now and I like it 😂
I don't have a switch lite
Dang
Did this man just say the ds lite came out in 2016? I’m not gonna Google it but I know that’s wrong. If I’m wrong than my childhood memory’s were fabricated by the government and time isn’t real
Nuh uh
5 INCHES IS NOT TINY 😭
I know bro, 5 is inches is a good size 👀
im sorry but that ps5 portable things design aint it for me 😂😂😂 and the fact that you need a ps5 to use it bahahah
