Nintendo Switch Lite – Gray

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.

El precio ofrecido es sumamente competitivo. La unidad fue entregada nueva, en perfectas condiciones asi como el empaque. Incluye folletos e instrucciones en japonés, sin embargo, la consola es configurable en cualquier idioma. Se proporciona un cargador con clavijas compatibles para contactos mexicanos.

Having never owned a single Nintendo console, I was attracted to the Lite in particular solely due to its form-factor: it fills the same niche that a PSP used to fill, and I absolutely adored that handheld as a kid. Having received it, I was blown away by its actual size. This thing is CHONKY, and I have no idea how people even use a normal, full-sized Switch in handheld mode – that’d probably be too much for me.I didn’t get it for the Nintendo games (other than BOTW), and I appreciate the effort the game studios put into porting every recent PC hit ever to the Switch as thanks to that I can have about a half of my usual game library on a portable, standalone device (as opposed to, let’s say, remote gaming from a phone with a controller hooked up to it) whenever I find myself away from home and having to wait for something. This is a great time killer, and a commuter’s dream.

Chegou muito rápido, veio em perfeito estado e com tudo certinho! Já joguei dois jogos para ver como funcionava um em cartucho e outro digital, recomendo fazer a compra junto de um Microsd, pois será necessário!
