>still has huge bezel
are people even trying?

I'm convinced that all of these "leaks" of a switch pro/lite/mini is nintendo giving out fake info to catch leakers.

What's that? A new Vita?

It’s official

that shit will overheat so easily

i just bought a second switch to hack yesturday fml

It’s real, moron

Why are you shilling this console?

>console
It's a fucking handheld.

>It has a real dpad

Fuck, now I have to buy it

Its $199 retard

Terrible, I thought they were going to release a good ultimate console, here we go again with all the fucking revisions, I'm so done with Nintendo. Not fucking browser, not fucking games but ports, I can't even change the fucking wallpaper to make it my own!

Literally this.
A handheld device running at console like performance with full 3D games and just a single screen, no dumb gimmicks, was something I literally wanted since the GBA. Both the DS and the 3DS were very underwhelming, but this is like Nintendo's PSVita.

Already have a switch though, so I'm not interested in this one, but I'm sure there's a market.

I'd rather play docked.

There is a fuckhuge market
Every single 10yo that plays pokemon for starters

Ths is going to be FUCKHUGE in Japan

>Release a lite version aimed at Children
>Yea Forums is triggered because its not something that suppose to appeal to them
All day everyday.

God dammit Nintendo went the exact opposite direction of what would get me to buy their console

I love the turquoise and I'll replace my current switch with it because I never use TV play but I don't really get the point, its battery life isn't much better than the base model and it's still a good bit bigger than the Vita.

Only at an airport or something where I'm waiting a really long time but I already have an original switch. That seafoam green one looks pretty nice though

This.
I guess I will never have a Switch.
I am waiting for a more powerful version and they come with this.

>Every single 10yo that plays fortnite for starters
ftfy
pokemon is now a manchildren's game

I want the opposite, a docked only version without the stupid gimmick joycon bullshit.

So it doesn't connect to the TV? It's dedicated handheld?

If you can't see the target for this, you're a retard. It's going to replace the 3DS but with Switch games. This shit will sell a fuckton to kids and Pokémon addicted who just won't spend 300$ on Switch.

>actually bigger than the original switch

The Switch?

Is there another console that isn't 99% cutsceneshit available today that isn't some ouya type of device? If there is, I'd like to see it.

So are they killing the DS or what?

i don’t expect anyone with a mental age over 13 to be playing this in public

Based

I love how, I genuinely, with all of my heart, thought they were going to UPGRADE hardware, not by a lot, I just wanted a -little- bit of a hardware upgrade, even just a tad

they fucking DEGRADED and went backwards, what in the fuck am I watching. Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking it, this will sell millions to casuals, but fuck me, this hardware is just on another level of bad now, can we please get a fucking reverse of this? Switch pro? ONLY docked?

Does it come with a fucking D-PAD this time? This is the important thing.

It was reported that two new Switches were being produced, effectively “lite” and a “pro” versions. One has now been shown to be true and the other has since then been talked about being delayed. It’s possible that both versions come out this year, one in September and the other for December, but I think they’re going to hold it out for Spring/Summer of next year probably.

Remember when the DSLite was a better version in every way to the original?

If you didn't see people playing the GBA in public, you won't see them playing this in public. Haldheld doesn't mean you have to play it in public.

My question is, will it be cheaper?

My dad works for Sega and he said it will cost a gorillion dollars

Switch is more powerful than a Wii U

People complaining about this don't understand that they are not the target audience, same as 2DS.
This is literally for kids that don't give a shit about graphics, framerate and TV output.

Any chance this will be a great portable emulator machine? Will it be able to run PS1 games? Any chance PS2 as well?

Yes, and some games like XC2 look like absolute shit in handheld mode because of dynamic resolution scaling.

Kinda like it, might buy it on black friday sale or smthing. Don't like nintendo games, but would like to play smt5 in the future.

When are they gonna add a fucking web browser

It should be $99 or less.

Depends on the game. Xenoblade 2 was unplayable while BotW actually had a more stable framerate

The Wall Street Journal isn’t exactly an unfounded rumor mill, it’s a fucking report. A Switch Pro probably won’t even be that big of an upgrade since they’re going to have keep some type of selling point for a Switch 2 in the future.

It really depends on the game. Resolution and detail are obviously going to be downgraded, but some titles actually run better in portable mode due to that downgrade.

>who is gonna buy this?
People who don't have a Switch because it's too expensive, and people who just want a dedicated handheld.

This is all about price point.

>there are 10+ Switch lite threads
And they say this board isn’t NintendoGAF

>completely removed ability to dock

I don't know if that was the best decision.

I could see a lot of people buying this for the cheaper price point, then deciding they want to connect to a TV down the road.

Especially with certain games being excluded from its library.

I'm assuming the Lite is slightly weaker and cheaper to produce since now it isn't expected to render anything above 720p.


In the video, they said "HD Rumble" was removed. Does this mean rumble is entirely gone, or just the unique rumble features geared towards individual joycon use?

Smells poor in here. Considering the lack of features this should be $130-$150 with a pack in game. When it doesn't sell it'll drop.

I like it. It does what i need it to do and i dont have to pay the full $300 as well as play the few games that are only on switch and will allow me to play pkmn/animal crossing with my bros.

Same in Europe. I'm out every day and I've never seen anyone with a switch. I've never even heard anyone talk about the Switch.

It's all good so long as we're not talking about Sony cutsceneshit. Unless we're discussing how terrible Sony cutsceneshit is and different ways to destroy it once and for all, then that's OK.

Why yes I would like to buy a switch mini.

The current switch is not a true portable, it's barely a handheld, requires a bag to carry and is not a similar footprint to the old pocketable systems like the Gameboy advance and the DS.

The joycons were a mistake, the waggle gimmick being used to try and recreate the success of the Wii. This caused Nintendo to remove the Dpad, an essential part of any Nintendo controller or handheld all in an effort to make it comfortable for 2 players to play on a small 7 inch tablet.

The screen is also a failure. 35% bezel. Modern smartphones gave bezeless screens these days. No excuse.

half of the things about the Switch lite, starting from the name, are wrong

I bought the original switch for 320 eurodollars, but I've also pirated all the games :^)

It goes from absolute shit to slightly less shit
A traditional console with proper cooling would run games way better than docked or handheld

Look, all I'm trying to say is that Sony is a shit company that makes shit games, has shitty fans, and that we should never, ever again talk about Sony in a positive light on this board. Also, fuck Sony and....anybody want to destroy Sony? Let's destroy Sony.

Next year you're getting a more powerful switch. Rumors are they had trouble with the X2 / improved X1 and battery life + overheating portable which is why it's not coming out this year, so they're looking to either fix those problems or say fuck it and make a TV only switch. Either way it's next year though, this was just the focus to get out by Japan.

Let’s be frank, the handheld market was killed by smartphones. This is just a $200 peripheral accessory to squeeze more money out of soiboys.

>inb4 it works with 3rd party docks

but the big ugly bezel is still there. this is pretty much my only disappointment with the switch lite.
i was thinking about selling my og switch and getting the lite because i pretty much only play in handheld mode these days, but then i saw that they still didnt fix the bezel despite changing the entire model and size and shit.

In handheld the switch is underclocked or throttled because of battery life, heat and noise.
This is why the resolution and performance is generally lower in handheld mode.

I don't have a TV

How the fuck are you even supposed to play certain games on this? I have a couple games (Mario Party, and Mario Maker 2), which require each player to use a separate joycon. Now this shit comes along and doesn't have actual joycons.

Only thing overtly wrong is the colors, but again since apparently they have multiple in development it's very possible they just changed their mind and felt yellow was a better launch color than red, and dark red could be saved for something like a Mario bundle down the line if they make MK9 or Odyssey 2 for Switch

Depends
BOTW runs great. Most Nintendo EAD games for that matter run great.
Games like XC2 however run like ass.
Indie games are also hit in miss. Sometimes you get stuff like Hollow Knight, 1080p 60fps docked and 720p 60fps handheld. Other times you have games like Bloodstained, which is unplayable on docked and even MORE unplayable handheld.

>I could see a lot of people buying this for the cheaper price point, then deciding they want to connect to a TV down the road.
Why would you sell a cheaper model and give it all the features of the real version for $100 less?

I know pretty much every faggot on here who buys a shitty inferior switch port because "muh portability" is lying. Dock mode is the definitive way to play Switch games. If they sold a cheaper switch that just plugged into the TV it would kill the normal switch sales in America at least.

Yeah, it also run smoothly now. Video's from June.

>Hollow Knight, 1080p 60fps docked and 720p 60fps handheld

Nope would SWITCH it off instead.

Does he have to try as hard as Sony does when trying to destroy video games? He'd have to try pretty hard. Like, really, really hard.

Wrong. The DSi had a few DSi exclusive games that could not be played on the DS, as well as a few DSi enhanced games. This was exactly the same with the GBC and the GB. The GBASP IS a hardware revision of the GBA though. The backlight (sidelighting in the 1st run) and battery don't mean squat.

But they're $90. Why not just buy a regular Switch which includes the $90 joycons instead?
It makes no sense.

>still need to buy a dock and controller
There go your savings

You can't, watch the video on YouTube

>boom, instant release, instant release of the new dlc, runs better than anything else on switch without making any sacrifices at all
I have zero hesitations about getting silksong on switch over PC desu

So there are games on Switch that run noticeably worse in handheld mode.

Is the Lite model designed to run them as well as TV mode Switch, or would I have to be retarded to buy this version?

>its real
WHAT THE FUCK
WHERE IS THE DIRECR FOR IT????
lol? the question is how much euros and will it be crackable

Backwards compatibility with all prior Nintendo handhelds would’ve made this worth the $200.

>smaller
>thus, more portable
>doesn't look as stupid as the switch
>nothing of value was lost without being able to take joycons off or use hd rumble
Literally the only problem I see here is the pricetag of $200. Probably should've been around $100 to $160 range instead.

I mean, the GBC had a display that could display the games in color. That's upgraded hardware. Playing a game in black/white or in color makes a huge difference.
The DSi had bigger screens, a new soundchip for better sounds, 16 MB RAM instead of 4, 133MHz CPU instead of 67 MHz and games had extra features that you couldn't access on a normal DS.

No idea. There may be a die shrink for the X1 which allows for better thermals and lower power usage, so they could run it at higher clock speeds for better performance in handheld mode

Why yes, I love playing my pastel yellow Nintendo Switch Lite in public.

Guess I'll have to sit on this until more details surface or it comes out.

I'd love to only have to pay 200 bucks for a Switch but not if the games are gonna run like ass.

That's called a WiiU

The 3d was a retarded gimmick. Hated it when the 3ds was new. The ability to switch between TV 3 and handheld modes is more useful

>Still can play switch games while getting rid of useless gimmicks

yeah, though wasn't the shield tv like 150 bucks? that shit has almost exactly the same specs as switch

Yea Forums is not one person

Except for GoD that is a casualized dark souls in terms of gameplay, most sony games have a gameplay that is shallower than something like contra.
All the weapons are the same weapon, there's no much at all in terms of level design and all the mobility of the game is pretty much automatic, press X to watch the game play itself. No physics whatsoever.

it's literally for pokemon. they'll make a pokemon version with the game at release

Why do games cost 60$ then?

Good point. I'll make a pong clone for PS4 Pro and sell it at $70 plus season pass. It's a console game so it's okay. retard

It is for some, but not for everyone, a family might want to have a normal Switch at home + a Lite for a kid or something, Nintendo did say they want people to buy a Switch for every family member, so a cheaper and more portable option sounds about right.

notice how it has longer battery life than og switch, meaning it has to have a more efficient SoC, 16nm or 7nm?

Nope

Next year probably, but I wouldn't bet on better performance.
I expect it to be released alongside BotW2, just like this is releasing alongside Pokemon.

It was $200 without the controller irrc

to be honest that's not even obvious, is it really? sure it support modern rendering features but is it even really more powerful in terms of processing power? maybe but clearly not hugely more powerful if it is

Perfect. Gonna pick one up for when I travel for work. The regular switch is nice but it’s too bulky to travel through tsa and checkin comfortably. This new switch will be amazing for this

pretty sure it came with a controller and you could find it for less than 200 bucks but yeah

It's basically the 2DS of the switch. Hopefully we get a 3DS XL counterpart meant for TV mode in a year or two.
Basically if you have a normal switch now, there's no reason to get a lite unless you travel with it a lot and would prefer not to use a bag.

A handheld version with the same hardware?
Don't most games dip below 30 fps in handheld mode on the regular Switch?

WHY IS THERE NO COOL COLOR REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
SPECIAL EDITIONS WHEEEEEEEN

In most digitalfoundry tests, the handheld mode is generally the uglier but slightly faster version.

This is obviously intended for children who just want a new 3DS, or rather, their parents who would like to save $100 and forego TV mode. It's effectively a 2DS for the Switch.

20th september

Thanks

It's utterly redundant and pointless, that's all I took from the reveal. It's so confusing, Nintendo is just baffling me with this decision, The only Improvement I can gather is that the battery life has been increased by an average of 30 minutes and that is no where near enough to justify this. Everything else has been either removed or downgraded.

No, that's on the left.

It used to be used for the dock to line it up and keep it from damaging the connector. Maybe they'll still put out a charging dock that doesn't connect to a TV or something.

USB c charging

that's on the left and the circled thing doesn't seem to have any ports, more like a guide rail thing but for what accessory?

It's better for children and people who don't want to spend $299, you dumbfuck. Think before you post.

Here's a pic of the original if you want to compare. Without that little cutout the switch wouldn't click into the dock so smoothly and easily, it's what you're lining the connector up with. No idea why it's there unless it can still charge from the dock without HDMI out. They're pushing the idea of multiple switches per house so that might be the idea.

It seems redundant to you but this solves the problem of buying a console for just one or two games in particular. This will probably be marketed to casual gamers who just want to play mario or pokemon

What games are worth playing on the switch? Now that a friendless poorfag like me can get it?

>travel to beautiful camp site
>how about taking in the scenery
>nah lol lets play smash!

when the battery runs out in 2 hrs they will have plenty of time for that.

unironically only botw from all the exclusives that are out right this moment

animal crossing is going to be cool

shit like mario is just too toddler easy unless you're into your autistic fantasies of running around with your only aim being on how can I make this harder

Was contemplating getting a switch possibly but didnt like the original model much. The switch mini is literally what I wanted the bad part however is that the buttons can wear out and normal switch has replacable joycons. Still not sure if want switch at all since only games worth a shit are zelda botw, and animal crossing. Just want to play comfy rpgs

The switch lite still has gyro controls so why is everyone saying motion won’t work

>Back in my day, we went camping and just stared at trees all day!
Take your meds, gramps

The internal button components will be the same as on a joycon. You can just unscrew the back and swap out anything that wears down.

Not if they were smart and brought a power bank.

True. Or they may only use their Switch in handheld mode, so it would make more sense to buy the dedicated handheld model

I wanted the opposite. A stationary switch.

>Never actually been camping

why does Nintendo keep calling it a dedicated handheld when it's not even a clamshell design?

why are they releasing a product with an artificially limited useful life, this "thing" is going to scratch, bend and get punctured, who is stupid enough to buy a handheld that isn't perfectly portable.

Attached: 1517467089998.jpg (387x309, 13K)

That would be a slap in the face to those that already purchased a Switch, I much rather prefer a weaker version so my initial purchase doesn't feel invalidated.

Everyone brings a book while camping, it's no different. You need something for evening downtime once you get back to the tent.

Then keep your current switch docked and remove the joycons to play with the Lite

>A handheld only Switch that's $100 less? Why would anyone want this? Nintendo is stupid!

Shouldn't you stupid faggots be flipping burgers and stocking shelves?

You can just buy a case and screen protector for the low price of 29.99.

You're right they should just call it the gameboy 2019

>when it's not even a clamshell design
So gameboy is not a handheld? Vita? PSP? PSP go? Neo geo? Are you ignant?

OP's dick

Not at initial launch, also why it sold so poorly initially since the controller was mandatory initially

this shit though, literally named the console after its main selling point and it doesn't even have that

not only that but they removed their initial reveals killer features like ice cubes in a glass simulator

Mostly play docked so it's not for me but I understand why they want a 3ds replacement that's cheap and sturdy for the kids. Hopefully this means switch pro is coming too

why does the initial launch matter?

on ali express its like 1 dollar user

will it have a reflective screen?

>any kind of Switch that doesn't have detachable joycons

Fake.

The joycons being detachable is like, the entire gimmick of their controller.

Nintendo is abandoning the 3DS and they have no new system in the handheld market until now. Maybe this is supposed to be it.

It's almost as if it was made for a different audience retard.

I dont understand why anyone would buy this over the current switch. The only upside is the price, and you can get around that by buying used. It's worse than the current switch in every way outside of size but it's still pretty big so what's the point. If it were actually pocket sized then that would be one thing but it's not

did he say otherwise? you're the retard who can't handle someone exclaiming they don't like it

I think the leak from awhile back said something like you'd be able to buy a separate dock for connecting from & to T.Vs but it's been

I really like it but it's not the most necessary thing for me, love the turquoise colour so I'll try to trade in my faulty other Switch for this

I'll buy it if it can be hacked. Would be the current definitive handheld emulation device

What's the point of not giving it a stand to output to the tv?

First, the switch actually trounce your iphone in terms of graphics because mobile graphical chips are crippled by a chinese mafia that refuse to support essential GPU features that the switch only support because nvidia was being retarded and trying to sell a laptop GPU with an ARM CPU as a "mobile chip" that never caught on because the extra circuitry never goes used, so nintendo could buy those chips for cheap.
Second, it has no buttons, so you can only play touch screen garbage.

It's $100 less and has a better battery life. The 3DS or Vita never had problems with stick drift so I assume Nintendo while attempt to put extra effort so the joycons are long lasting, as a trade off for not being able to detach them.

Finally a new handheld.

Forget about Switch Lite, how about Switch Pro?

Pretty much a deal breaker if I have to buy all my games again

fuck that hybrid meme, I want a handheld, with a real dpad.

2DS says hi

The 3DS flopped because it was ridiculously overpriced and had basically no games. Once they dropped the price and it got some decent games it became massively successful.
Can someone explain to me how Link's Awakening is a $60 game? I can't wrap my head around it. The game clearly has had far less work put into it than the crash or Spyro remakes, which came with 3 games and still launched at $40. At least it's not as bad as WWHD/TPHD I guess.

So which games don't support handheld mode? Anything notable?

but muh PPI, smaller pixels per inch is sharper at same distance

its called structural integrity and being made for literal children, still has a heatsink / fan in it so needs support for the vents and open space

has clamshell.

>you need a place for your hands
Yeah, that's the controller part. Because you hold a Switch at the buttons you actually need a bezel around the screen LESS than you do on a phone. I fucking hate bezel-less phones because there's nowhere to grab the phone without accidentally touching the screen, but the Switch is a game console that doesn't have those problems.

umm thanks for the reply I guess?

>Can't even tell colors.

What would be based from Nintendo is if they release their own version of a detachable d-pad joycon.
It won't be easy since you can't use a paperclip/jig to install CFW. It would be nice though, because it's small, comfy, better battery, and has a real d-pad.
You can do a data transfer between two switches

As per the video, officially ALL games will be compatible because you can buy separate joycons for games that need it.
Unofficially, any game that plays like ass in handheld like XC2 most likely will still play like ass on SL

Mario Party, 1-2-Switch and Labo are the only ones I can think of.

It's just the smaller display lmao.

The OG 2DS didn't, and it had great sales for such little effort.
On that note, all the Nintendo handhelds prior to the GBASP had no clamshell. No I'm not including Game and Watch

So is this Nintendo admitting that the Switch's gimmick is pointless?

I'd prefer a larger switch that can't go handheld but can actually get good performance and has a larger library of 3rd party games
and a GCN/64 emulator

They aren't gonna be visible while you're playing though. And probably also when not playing if you get a storage/protective case.

>Unofficially, any game that plays like ass in handheld like XC2 most likely will still play like ass on SL
So pretty much every 3rd party game will run like shit on this thing.

No, they're just selling it without the gimmick for poorfags, casuals, and children with strict parents. It's like the 2DS, except the 3D gimmick WAS pointless.

it's not much smaller and the battery is probably smaller too, also there's test on the current switch that indicate that having display brightness on full or lowest barely impacts battery life in botw

How is pointless? I remember data showing an almost 50-50 split between people using the Switch as handheld and docked.

Now that we find out that the Switch mini rumors are true will Yea Forums be interested in the Switch Pro rumors?

>1080p probably LCD still but a slightly better quality LCD
>6GB RAM
>Tegra 7NM chip probably twice as fast as the current Switch but still slower than even a regular PS4
>slightly sturdier Joycons
>1 hour on average better battery life
>64GB and 256GB options($100 more lol)

I don't see why current Switch owners would be upset over this. Switch Lite isn't an upgrade meant to replace your current Switch like the DS Lite. This is for people who wanted a smaller, more portable console, as well as children. I just want them to make an official Joycon with a dpad now.

Doesn't Xenoblade 2 run like actual fucking shit on handheld mode? 20 fps and 360p. Let's not forget 90% of AAA ports too

How is this shit defended? thank fuck I didn't wait

oh you're talking about the piece of cheese, yes, i can see how the Switch lite is on par with that effort.

>No I'm not including Game and Watch.
how convenient, i don't think the Switch lite is anywhere near as durable as those old consoles though

Every 3rd party 3D game, probably. Indie 2D games will probably fit right in though.
Battery is confirmed 30% longer on the Lite, a full hour added to BotW gameplay.

Well not exactly because now people are clamoring for a Switch Pro, which will very likely be a dedicated console as to not throttle the hardware.

All I want is an overclocked switch home
Give me a decent console that runs these game at 1080p with steady 60fps nintendo

it's not a meme, it's the best thing ever

learn to read what you reply to

no it's fine

Who /lateadopters/ that dodged a bullet?

Got it a month ago cause I was tired of waiting for the revision, but holy fuck I am glad I did the waiting

Source my friend. Data is only as good as the sample size and how the variables are tested.

more realistic to expect same battery since they'd want to maximize the performance jump in a pro version

I'm more interested in what sort of performance jump would be possible, I guess one factor to consider is that the way it works must make it possible for current games to work on it just fine

The switch lite is bulkier for its size than the og switch so it's probably meant for dumb hands like children. Again, it mirrors the 2DS situation.
Also, I didn't count the Game and Watch ones because you only get one game per unit. Barely comparable.

As a current Switch owner, this really doesn't make me feel bad at all. The new console looks nice visually but overall it's a downgraded system.

>but holy fuck I am glad I did the waiting
Why? You missed the hacking window.

The AAA ports generally run fine enough because they use some AAs that make the low resolution look fine.
Now Xeno 2, Xeno 2 is a bizarre case.
The game runs at a resolution that makes the Wolf2 port look like HD, and throws a SHARPEN filter on the picture that makes every saw and shimmer much more visible than the usual.

smaller than your mom's cock

It would be cool to have that, but I don't see myself buying that honestly. I play both handheld and TV mode so I would rather keep the switching gimmick.

I meant didn't do the waiting. Typo

also, I'm rich and love a collection

Removing the docking feature is the stupidest shit that they ever done with the console.

They could’ve kept it. Fuck, it’s been 2 years since the Switch launched, they could’ve fitted the same docked mode power on the Lite.

Now hundreds of thousands of kids around the world will get a Lite because of their parents cheap out, all of them won’t be able to host a Smash party on the TV like Kevin over there.

rude

Agreed. I want a Nekopara themed Lite. Dognutters always get away with everything.

Have you seen any of their adds? Portability is basically the whole point of owning a switch.

Yeah, I expected them to jew out and make connecting it to a TV require additional accessories that are sold separately, but not cut the connectivity altogether.

No but they will go missing

Look how far Nintendo has come in terms of graphics.

So it's basically the 2DS, ie designed for retards

Next xmas you will see ads with fatlus neckbeards like me playing smt at 3am
save this post

>two years later
>still no themes

Does it have any exclusive games yet? Serious question. I already played BOTW on a WiiU, I'm not interested in Odyssey.

the OS is fucking soulless garbage, I think anyone will agree with this
sure you might say it's cool how minimal it is, but it's nintendo, where are all the cute and quirky shit at??

Every Switch owner I know has had to buy replacement joycons after a year when the sticks start drifting. If they haven't improved the sticks, making them non-detachable is a really bad idea.
