chakoo Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Got my switch lite today, haven’t played it yet but did take it out of the box to have a look. The size and weight seem much better imo. I went with the grey (was borderline looking at the yellow) and having seen the color after opening it I’m more than happy with my choice.

I’m thinking hard about pre-ordering it. Not as simple and over all much worse. You can only transfer users & saves (not downloads) and you can only do that for users tied to a nintendo id account. So if you have a guest account for a friend, you can't transfer their saves. Then you have to manually go into nintendo eShop on each account to redownload any digital games. It's really really bad process. -.- Also sadly I'm passing on the Pokemon model because I had a deal too good to pass up on and had to purchase it today (retailer I bought it from gave me $160 in credit/points for my purchase, Shoppers Drug Mart for any Canadian reading). So really I'm only paying $130 for the system after tax and selling my old switch for $280. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakoo Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Oh one more complaint about the switch migration process. Once you've transferred over your accounts you would think you could just simply pop out your memory stick and plug it in to the other switch. Nope switch immediately tells you that you can't and the memory stick has to be formatted first before it can be used. Nintendo has truely made this migration process awful. -.- On the flip side, I do love the lite over the original. Weight is great, screen is fantastic and everything feels sturdy/solid in my hands. If you spend 100% of your switch time in handheld mode the lite is a no brainer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The materials are nice but my biggest complaint is it feels not deep enough for the switch lite, so you’ll get the feeling that it’s not going to close. So I’m sure in the long run the zipper will break. Still the price was decent. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/nintendo-carry-case-and-screen-protector-for-nintendo-switch-lite-gray/6360914.p?skuId=6360914 I’ve heard the hori hard case is good, but it doesn’t include a screen protector.

The scary part about the Lite is I imagine they'll be replacing them with a refurb unit and in Nintendo's world, that means you'll be playing the panel lottery.

Biggie Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 @chakoo If I were to buy this Lite system can I keep it completely separate from my main Switch console? I’d only want to play certain games on it in handheld mode such as Pokémon, Dragon Quest, etc. Or do they have to be connected with my original Switch account?

Biggie Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Surprisingly this was very easy to set up and link my accounts together. Just minutes into it and I was already re-downloading the games that I wanted to play on my Lite from my eShop account. Also the Pokémon edition is absolutely beautiful and feels great. It’s awesome to be able to play my original Switch in docked mode but be able to play the Lite when I wanna play something in handheld.
