Just over an inch shorter? That is hardly anything. I have no idea how anyone can consider this portable if they don't consider the original portable in the first place. The price is compelling though.

... no, it has well over 2000 games officially.
EDIT: Here, their official store lists 2256 games available now.
Some of those are probably duplicates and bundles but I'd guess the real number is still close to 2200.
New 3DS was done via a direct
Black is officially designated as the development console color.
Little Nincels continue being an embarrassment
Y'all wanted a portable only switch and now you got one but now you want it to be exactly the same as the original switch that launched back in 2017?
I have to laugh!
368p is the vertical resolution, not horizontal.It can go as low as 368x207 per the digital foundry analysis which is lower than the 3DS's 400x240
the huge bezels annoy me
Dpad looks great, though I dont know... it feels like some of these games are meant for tv
I'm a bit puzzled why people are surprised that the Lite is handheld only. I'm not saying it's a good decision by Nintendo, but as far as I can recall rumors of this revision always pointed to this.
Combination between Nintendo fanboys and Incels, a.k.a hardcore misogynists and school shooters. Really classy shit.
For anyone that has CTR on Switch, you won't be able to play 4 player split-screen CTR on this. You can only play it in docked mode.
What an awful hot take. Nintendo Switch Lite doesn't exist to correct design mistakes of og Switch. It exists to add a cheaper entry point into the echo system.You see core features, I see gimmick. Nintendo ditching them is just a confirmation you were in the wrong to consider joy-cons and dockability as core features.
Also, has anyone's Switch battery lasted 6.5 hours ever?The battery life is a bit of a bummer. 3-7 hours? Seems incredibly poor for a handheld only device.
If the original is classed as 'way too big' then this is still big imo. They should have cut down on the bezels around the screen even more for this to really be classed as portable in comparison.The original was way too big, so anything that gets the system smaller is progress.
Pokemon bundle is a guarantee.Wonder when we'll see bundles. How long did that take with the Switch?
This is the strangest thread I've seen on this site.
By the sounds of things, some of you just want a regular Switch? If so, just purchase a regular Switch?
Or were you perhaps thinking that the Switch Lite (Mini) was somehow going to be an upgrade to the regular Switch?
I'm beyond confused by some of these posts.
This seems great for younger kids. I'd be 100% down for getting my Newphew this. He had a blast with the Nintendo 2DS.
Agreed. A lot of the complaints seem to boil down to "Why is it not exactly the same as the current Switch".This is the strangest thread I've seen on this site.

Exactly lol. So many bizarre responses.This is the strangest thread I've seen on this site.

I would wonder the same about someone using the term "Nincel" tbh. Agreed with the rest of the point though.Yep, we all got together and decided we all want a portable only, then we all voted to change our mind.
Do these people think before typing?

From my quick search, no thanks to Nintendo's basic search options, I see the Just Dance 2018 & 2019 games also don't support it and a game called Little Friends: Dogs & Cats, but I don't have time to search the entire library to see which icons are shown at the bottom of the game's page. That's why I'm asking if there's a complete list.
Unfortunately, we don't have Black Friday sales where I'm from. I think I'd be okay with handheld-only if not for the lower performance...The regular Switch is almost certainly going to go on sale on Black Friday, so consider holding off until then if docked Switch is important for you

I filtered on eShop recently to show just games and it was around 1000 (EU), there are many many dlc etc. that are included.
It probably means that there's other stuff that will work such as the ethernet adapter.Yeah, it's suspicious that the specs say "Connect devices such as"...
Ah, I misunderstood then, I thought you meant functionality rather than size. However even for the size, although the difference is small, I wouldn't call it negligible. "Pocketable", "portable" and other such terms are wildly subjective and relatively small size differences can make a device more portable to a large number of people.I said account for that bc the photo only shows the first joy-con beside the Switch Lite. If you compare the Joy-Con to the right side of the Switch Lite, you see a smaller size difference than the name implies. Add in the rest of the base model Switch's components, and you see a clear and negligible difference at best.
Amazingly yes.Wait the regular Switch doesn't support BT headphones? And this doesn't either? Do you have to use wired headphones or something?
I'd suggest anyone thinking about purchasing this for the d-pad alone should wait and see instead. Nintendo's record with Switch d-pads has been poor, and with this model, if you get a fucked up d-pad, you can't easily do anything about that. Also, if you want a d-pad on Switch, there's less expensive ways than this to get one. Even the most expensive way (paying someone to mod a Joycon for you) is still a lot cheaper than a whole new Switch.I already have a switch but I kind of want this for that fucking dpad alone. Goddamn.
Surely the 3DS did. There was definitely over a thousand DS games.Is this the first handheld in history to launch with nearly 1000 games in its catalogue?
Is a lower performance official?Unfortunately, we don't have Black Friday sales where I'm from. I think I'd be okay with handheld-only if not for the lower performance...
