I have the system and screen protector from hori and it's really nice, not cheap feeling like most clear plastic cases. The kickstand works a lot better than the one on the regular switch.
But the hinge kinda protrudes a little bit too much, and it's leaving an indent on my carrying case.
I just ordered myself a Switch Lite bundled with The Witcher 3 for £226,as well as AM Film screen protectors. I don't need it but I want it so II thought I'd treat myself. I was going to buy The Witcher 3 anyway so the £20 saving I made on the console makes it easier to justify. I'll keep my original Switch for docked/tabletop modes at home connected to WiFi and make the Lite my Primary console. I'm only going to download select games onto it. Can't wait for it to arrive on Tuesday.
@BarefootBowser Cheers pal. Nope I haven't used one yet. I was in a game shop the other day hoping to see one on display and despite the shop having a large Nintendo presence, only the boxes were on display. You're right, there needs to be demo units, perhaps nearer to Xmas there will be.
I wanted the grey console but only the turquoise was available with The Witcher 3. I've requested to swap it for the grey but if not nok problem, the turquoise is rather nice and will probably look even nicer once I have it in my hands.
I got the Waterfield case and it's amazing. The official Nintendo case is great for a budget $20 price tag.
@JayJ The Slip Case?! If so, we love that thing!
@TossedLlama Yes! It comes with a cable to do so as well ;D
@OorWullie Yeah, that's the best Switch Lite use case for those who already own it! It's like a mini sidekick xD
@BarefootBowser If that flipcase holds up with nice materials, it'll be a hugeeee winner for the Lite
@ReaperExTenebris Vice versa! The Switch Lite feels like an accessory to the OG Switch ;3
@ItCameFromABox Yeah I got the new Switch Lite Waterfield slip case. It's probably the best case I have ever bought for the Switch, I like it a lot more than the Cityslicker I got for my original Switch as it's quicker and easier to take the console out and put it back in, plus it's just a more compact case that is easier to take around. I would say one of their 10 card cases is essential, but it makes for the perfect grab-n-go handheld bag.
Nintendo Life videos are always faaar too long. 22 minutes for a top ten accessories video? Come on. Pretty sure you'd get a lot more views if you cut all the rambling and made most of them a quarter as long.
I was quite interested in seeing what Ring Fit Adventure was like too, but, again, far too long for far too little actual content and I stopped watching after the first minute during which I essentially learned nothing about the game.
Best accessory for a Switch Lite? The trade in value toward a real Switch!
Switch Lite is comfy. It's unquestionably superior as a handheld console. So if you're not into docking your Switch, it's the obvious buy.
Personally, I'm getting one to use as my primary console. We'll still have a normal Switch living in its dock, though. Only problem is that now the cases, grips, and so on I bought for the OG Switch are kind of pointless.
LOVE my Switch Lite as a mainly handheld gamer. So sweet, small and comfy. I hope it can hold up to some serious, SERIOUS usage!
@Heavyarms55 I honestly couldn't go back to the original Switch after playing a few hours of Link's Awakening on my Lite. Felt like my wrists were going to fall off lol
@TeslaChippie I'm sure you're exaggerating. And if by some chance you aren't, you might want to see a doctor about that.
@Heavyarms55 Only slightly ;D
I don't know why some Switch owners feel threatened by the Lite, I have both and love both. OG is permanently docked and the Lite is my primary. The two systems are the same platform people!
@USWITCH64 Probably some people trying to validate their purchases by criticizing other options.
