Ah, the Nintendo Switch Lite.
The portable, handheld only Switch that's the cheapest, most affordable Switch model
in the lineup.
Compared to the others, this little guy has always been severely underrated.
It may lack some of the features found in the higher end models but when you think of
it as a dedicated handheld console similar to the Game Boy, DS, 3DS and so on, the Lite
excels big time.
I've been using the Lite as my on the go travel console since the day it came out back in
2019.
During that time, I've switched things up, no pun intended, to the Palkia and Dialga
Switch Lite because it's drop dead gorgeous but that's besides the point.
I've had a Lite since day one and I think it is the perfect grab and go console for
a multitude of reasons.
In today's video, I wanted to talk about my long term experience with the Switch Lite.
If you're thinking about buying a Lite or deciding which Switch model to get, this is
the video for you and I hope you find it helpful!

You all are truly amazing!
I'm so grateful for each and every one of you tuning in day in and day out!
So as I mentioned earlier the Switch Lite is Nintendo's smallest, lightest and most
affordable Switch.
It doesn't have all of the bells and whistles of the regular Switch but instead it focuses
solely on portability.
Nintendo is no stranger to creating portable consoles so it's no surprise that this little
console excels in that area.
Not only is it tiny and pretty much pocketable but it is also one of the most comfortable
consoles I've ever held in my hands.
Compared to the other two Switch models, the Lite is a featherweight.
This makes it great to hold for long periods of time when you're grinding through Legends
Arceus or trying to get to the next level in Kirby and the Forgotten Land.
What's special about the Lite though is not only it's size and portability but also the
fact that it has the same internals as the regular Switch and the highest end OLED Switch.
This means that games are going to run exactly the same on all three of these consoles.
If you do decide on the Lite, you'll get access to the entire catalog of Switch games so you're
not going missing a thing.
There are no exclusives in the Switch line but there are some games like Ring Fit Adventure
where you'll need to buy a spare Joy-Con to play on the Lite.
I've been taking the Switch Lite around with me as my travel companion since it came out
and another thing that I really love about it is that it works really well in addition
to my home Switch that I leave docked to the TV.
Thanks to the Nintendo Switch Online save data cloud feature, I always have the latest
save data file available so I can pick up where I left off anytime, anywhere.
It's great stuff.
I know some of you guys have been curious about how two Switches would work together
and I can say from experience that they work really well together.
If you have a Switch now and want to get another down the line, you won't have to worry.
I have my Lite set up as my primary so it doesn't always need an internet connection
and the OLED set up as my secondary.
It's pretty easy to change that in the eShop settings too if I want to take the OLED with
me.
Compared to the new, high end OLED Switch, the Lite is significantly smaller and lighter.
It is much more compact.
Despite the display being smaller, it's still sharp, vibrant and looks great.
I've never had a problem with the display on the regular Switch or the Switch Lite.
I've always thought games looked really, really good, especially for 720p.
However, compared to the OLED Switch, it's easy to wish that Nintendo would make an OLED
Switch Lite.
Here's hoping.
That's the dream right there!
To start to close this video out, it's no surprise, I'm a huge fan of the Switch Lite.
I'll always vouch for it and recommend it just like the 2DS that came before it.
Since the first time I got to hold it in my hands at that preview event, I've been fan.
The Switch Lite is an awesome little portable console that is perfect for those who see
themselves primarily playing on the go in handheld mode and don't need all of the bells
and whistles of the regular Switch or the OLED Switch.
So is it worth it in 2022?
Without question, yes.
It's the cheapest way to dive into the unbelievable library of Switch games and that alone is
a big win for anyone looking to buy a Switch!
Anywho, that’s about it for this video my friends!!
