Review: Finally a true Vita replacement - I was ecstatic when the first switch was announced two years ago. I've always loved the feeling of gaming on a handheld device, having grown up with the Gameboy, Gameboy color and Gameboy advance. Years later the PSP and Vita garnered my attention. Console gaming on a TV has its place, as does gaming on a PC. However, there is something that just feels more intimate about a handheld device you can play while sitting on the couch in a relaxed position. Or even more being able to take the experience with you and combat the total boredom of a three hour layover at the airport, followed by another half day in a cramped airplane. I had a switch since it's initial release and while it offered a good experience as a handheld it still lacked something compared to the Gameboy and Playstation devices. Breath of the wild on the go felt like a step in the right direction. But I feel as if the steps were impacted by heavy boots, an awkward and somewhat uncomfortable delivery for the experience. I'm not saying that the switch was a bad design but it was far from ideal given my expectations. Over the past two years my switch never went into the dock to display on my TV, it resigned to a dedicated handheld that eventually lapsed into a distraction only to be used while traveling. The awkward flex of the joycons mixed with the weight and size of the switch let me down a little. But for occasional use I could see past the flaws. Now, onto the switch lite. Immediately after unboxing and holding the device I could tell that this is what I had wanted in the switch two years ago. The weight is well balanced as my hands sit naturally onto the controls and there is no flex when gripping firmly. It's reminiscent of the Vita in all of the best ways. Only this time there's a game library that provides adequate variety. My first impressions could be tainted by the paired release of Link's Awakening, which is wonderful I might add. Finally, I found myself fully engulfed in gaming on the switch. It was like reliving my childhood, spending hours with my Gameboy in my grasp on the very same title. As expected, my hands didn't cramp after a half hour of use like they would with the original switch. The battery held sufficient charge to stay away from the outlet on the other side of my couch for hours on end as well. In my eyes it is perfect in every possibly way as a dedicated handheld gaming console. At last I'm content to finally have a true Vita replacement.
Review: Awesome gaming system that brings back the classics along with new games and great parental controls - Great system that allows you to play multiple games from game boy, Sega genesis, Super Nintendo etc. It's a great size for transport and easy to carry for kids and adults alike. The color display is great on it and it's faster on speed than I thought it would be and does very well. The parental controls are so much easier to configure and being able to keep up with playtime with monthly reports is very nice for keeping an eye on screen time for the kids so they are stuck in front of a screen all the time. Great system to have for those long travel times when on the road.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you transfer stored content from a regular Switch console to the Switch Lite?**
A: Another option, is to list your Switch Lite as the main console. This will allow you to play your Switch Lite offline, but your regular Switch will have to connect to the internet everytime you want to play a game on it. But that’ll keep your content on both if you want to.

Personally, that’s my plan, make my Lite the one I take with me places, then my regular a stationary console.

**Q: We could play online with WiFi???**
A: To answer your question. Yes. It connects to wifi internet connection. Nintendo have a 12 months online play for $20. It allows u to play games online and play classic NES games that are available in the store nes app. Very low price, easy and simple.

**Q: Will it play fortnite and for no additional monthly cost?**
A: fortnite is completely free without Nintendo membership. so far any game that is free to play and that is not Nintendo branded like (tetris 99) is free to play without Nintendo online membership.

**Q: What kind of memory card does this use? Micro sd or its own like the Ps vita?**
A: According to the reveal videos I've seen, it will be micro sd just like the old switch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An immersive gaming experience
*by M***V on May 30, 2020*

The photos don’t do it justice. I grew up with Gameboy and super Mario games. I’m also PlayStation fan boy by heart and last time I had Nintendo was the original Wii which I still have. I decided to buy the Gray - Switch Lite since they announced Paper Mario (and rumored Super Mario Galaxy). Nintendo made a smart move by following the trend of remakes because I played these games from night until dawn in elementary school; I am 24 now. I’m so happy I bought the switch lite for its great value. This console is truly pushing the limits to current technology to its maximum. The screen is crystal clear while never compromising the vivid colors and games’ unique styles exclusively on switch & cross platform games. During PS4, I became a huge indie game lover. The second my switch lite came, binge bought a bunch of great games under 9$ with real deals on gems of up to 90% off. My first switch game to buy and play is Planet Alpha (originally 20$ bought for 3.50$) and it’s perfect indie game that truly makes you understand the design of switch lite with comfort and ease; and again never comprising beauty exclusive switch game. The sense of ease and the light portability of the console that does not compromise the beauty of games full immerses you into a personal gaming experience that’s fun at any given moment. I also bought Overwatch on switch, which is also my go to on PS, to try and test my comfort level since I haven’t really played a handheld device in years. Overwatch is a great game to test the comfort on the switch lite because the game utilizes every button on the controller and in a fast paced. After a while it does feel a bit cramped but after adjusting the sensitivity you grow accustomed. OW surprised me so much and it is mind boggling to how they were able to compress the game onto this amazing console. Overall, I am satisfied and excited to spend years exploring the vast and diverse Nintendo library. This console is extremely worth it so far. No doubt Nintendo hit the nail on this console.
