Are you happy about the switch lite anons?

I replaced the little plastic 'buckles' on my Switch with metal ones and the attachment is massively more 'positive' and solid now. No idea why they weren't like this to begin with. Gets rid of all the play, it's as good as one piece now.

what do they even mean by not supporting tabletop mode?, that just the little plastic thing is missing?, surely we can still lean it against something?

Chances are they wont patch games that look or run like ass in handheld mode like xenoblade or doom, no.

>muh dpad

switchlite is overpriced shit

It only has portable performance profile, but it'll be on a new smaller (more effecient) process so it might even be passively cooled.

I think those colors are shit. Other than that, it looks pretty cool, I was holding off from buying a switch until they made a handheld/lite version of it. How is warframe on it? I wouldn't mind grinding on it for stuff.

Do we know the actual hardware specs its using yet?

It's amazing how every single wojak poster is, without a doubt, completely fucking brainless.

Because it doesn't have separate controllers. I don't know if it works with that switch pro controller, but if it does. Then I guess you can lean it against something while playing.

Don't quote me on that, though

It apparently performs identically to the present Switch undocked.

They'll just start pumping out games that are dock/pro only. Thus completely fracturing the userbase and sabotaging the whole thing. It may sound outlandish, but they clearly have given up on the original switch premise, and I mean, it's Nintendo. I love their games but they make the most pants-on-head retarded decisions in the industry.

It's not weaker. It's the same tech with just less features so it's cheaper and more portable. It's the 2DS to the 3DS

just because i wanted to play it doesn't mean i liked it when i did

Why do whites make this face?

There'll still be some way to put it into firmware recovery mode, so Nintendo can fix them, but as with newer Switchs it doesn't matter since it's encrypted.

This isn't for fat 20/30 year old manchildren who already own a switch

It's for boomers to buy their zoomer kids to play Pokemon and Fortnite on the way to soccer practice, just in time for the holiday season

We already went through this with the DS Lite and 2DS. Yet here we are again, Yea Forums is so enraged that a video game company would DARE design a cheap device specifically for children

100$.

They did this exact thing for the 3DS, what were you expecting.

I even have a Switch and I can fully admit it's the worst of both worlds. It's an underpowered, under-featured console, but it's too big, bulky with trash battery life to be a portable as well. If this thing can run for more then 2-3 hours, it will probably be the better product.

Since you fucks don't understand, I'll make it clear. People wanted a Switch mini that is DESIGNED to be a handheld, to be built around the idea OF A HANDHELD.

This one however, is basically a lesser version of the Switch permanently in Handheld mode. You'll still get the issues of it, still get the drops, still get lower resolution, and worst of all, have no improvements whatsoever. Fuck you and your consumer culture

haha wait you actually care about these features?

portablefags have been used to decent d-pads and the Switch just shat on that idea. As much as I dislike the idea of a "Switch" without detachable joycon, it will hit big with certain markets. FGC and retro players to name two.

>It's the same tech
It has a weaker processor so they could reduce the fan size.

nigga it's the same tech on a smaller screen

>they make the most pants-on-head retarded decisions in the industry
I think launching this in particular is a good idea for driving sales, but where they go from here could screw with certain developers. Worst case scenario is that some games don't bother to support handheld, which could have already happened. I think it's a lot better than spitting in the face of people who bought the first model, by releasing a NEW™ one.

imagine playing doom on switch

Source: dude trust me

I'm kinda considering getting one, but I've played on a friends switch and the performance in portable mode is borderline unplayable for me. Unless they up it a bit so it can maintain a stable fps (don't care about the resolution) I'm not getting it.

I'd buy a d-pad official joycon in a heartbeat.

It doesn't matter. What REALLY matters are the games.

Crippling disappointment of having to coexist with nonwhites

That's just how the business works, especially when it comes to Nintendo. A new console needs something new to justify the purchase. After people are hooked and a decent library of games has built up, then you can drop the bullshit.

This is how Switchfags cope with no d-pad, they gaslight themselves into believing some small shitty 3ds face buttons are better than real D-Pads.

Absolutely pathetic and quite sad to be honest.

As far as anybody knows, it has the exact same SoC. Using anything else would cost quite a bit more, the work has already been done for this one after all.

>The Switch Lite uses a more efficient processor that enables smaller heat vents on top of the system

No joycons no buy. That's the only reason your switch will be usable in 10 years, the fact you can replace aging sticks and buttons with new joycons. The switch mini looks nice, but it lacks the inherant advantage the switch offers.

no. that's too high-tech for Neokiketrashitpisstendo stuck in 1989

It's the, "Ohh..you're a poor, angry minority. Sheesh.. uhh how's that working out for you? Oh, that's not good. Better luck next time, right?" face.

Have you ever actually played with the Switch d-pad extensively? I genuinely love it. The ONLY thing it's bad for is fighting games because rolling between buttons is shitty. But for anything else it's beautiful.

I'm getting one just to play in bed. Feels good being so rich that $200 is pocket change

>BotW and Mario Rabbids share tier with pokemon lgbt
Disgusting

They're saying significantly longer battery life. Could be just the smaller screen, but very very likely there's been a process shrink.

>This one however, is basically a lesser version of the Switch permanently in Handheld mode. You'll still get the issues of it, still get the drops, still get lower resolution, and worst of all, have no improvements whatsoever.
yes that's a handheld? not sure why you're expecting an absolute powerhouse, or for them to add more powerful hardware on a cheaper model. 3DS had framerate drops, PSVITA had low res games, they're both handhelds, get over it.

Thanks for proving me right. It doesn't say it's weaker. More efficient just means better energy usage, which improves every year.

>Modding is unknown just wait on that. maybe they could add tv mode back
I dunno about that.

3DS didn’t have stick or d-pad issues, there’s no reason to think this one will have the same shitty build quality of the OG Switch, Nintendo understands that it’s handheld audience actually has standards, unlike their home console counterpart who just love buying joycons to replace their old ones.

I'd rather just get this

Attached: 61AXbLylGWL._AC_.jpg (1492x580, 61K)

Considering they reduced the fan size, I don't see how the processor itself won't be weaker too.

This exactly. I don't even undock my Switch, but this will be for around the house + friends' houses.

So its the handleheld version. I like it but would rather the regular switch.

The system has no Video Out for TV mode.

Also the swtichs joycon and a extra set means I always have 1-4 controllers on ready for others.

I like the idea of motion controls

If your a person looking at the switch as a side console like alot of people, want something cheap, a child or a person who travels alot then the Lite is PERFECT

Keep saying it.

Fucking yawn. Call me when the Pro happens.

>It doesn't say it's weaker. More efficient just means better energy usage
lolno, can't change physics, if a processor produces less heat, it doesn't magically retains it's processing power. The years when processor had massive heating issues are way behind us, a reduction in fan size can only mean a weaker processor.

>trusting a JOURNALIST to be able to differentiate between efficiency and performance
I’ll wait until it’s officially announced and come to my own conclusion

Because it'll be a smaller process. So it'll so the same work using less power. That's how moore's law works (basically), and the current Switch SoC is on an old (large) process.

Scaling down the IPS panel should have a very significant effect on battery
I'm not ruling out the possibility of a more efficient processor, but I strongly doubt that Nintendo would want to re-optimize for a weaker one. A significant amount of the games already tread a fine line for what can be done on the hardware with adaptive resolution and the like.

>The only bad thing is removing tv mode.
I play pretty much only docked so this thing is not for me. It will probably the 2ds of the switch so it will still probably sell anyways, but I know I won't pick it up.

I'm happy because since it's not a portable-only one I have zero reason to care about it. Had the released an actual improved switch in general I might have been annoyed. I only play on the TV so this is useless for me.

It's cheaper. Everyone understands that things must be removed for a cheaper price. Keep up with the rest of the class.

So basically wait a few weeks/months to see if the joycons start to drift, if they improved the build quality then Lite is objectively the best version.

It's the opposite of what I wanted, so atleast I'm saving money and can continue to wait.

Which games will be hard to play now? 1 - 2 Switch?? I mean, I actually like that game, but most people are happy to sacrifice that. The Lite does not replace the Switch.

I can't even sell a friend on this because its gutted so badly. The only thing I could tell him is its $100 cheaper and it has a real d-pad, but even then you may as well just put in an extra $80 for a used Switch to get the best experience possible from the console itself. No dock support at all, no freedom of joy cons and some games may feel awkward because of that (Mario Odyssey for example), and say goodbye to having any sort of good online connection at all because you can't use ethernet because again no dock and you'll be forced to play in 720p handheld mode or god forbid even worse resoultions like something in Xenoblade 2. Seriously what the fuck

How does nintendo keep getting away with this jewery? What reason do they have for not including dock and joycon support? Having the dock and joycons be separate would be fine, but they can't include a pass-through and and a bluetooth sensor? They literally get a free pass for all this bullshit.

>defeats the whole purpose of tabletop play
There is no tabletop play at all, the Lite doesn't have a kickstand.

Yeah, I mean I don't think releasing a smaller, joycon-less revision is bad in and of itself, but power should be on par with the original (which I don't think we officially know yet) and it should still be able to dock and you know... switch.

As a day one Switch owner I'm honestly okay with a pro version maybe like a year from now. The lite version doesn't bother me either since it provides nothing I don't already have. I mean there's going to be either an upgraded version or a new platform entirely, so why get upset? It's just the way of things. I personally like the idea of the Switch, so I'd be cool with a Switch 2 or whatever. I have my PC for everything else.

H-he's big!!

>>Modding is unknown
Modding is never ever. It's well after they started patching out the RCM exploit and the only known exploit that doesn't require you to have a Switch with the RCM exploit was patched out in 7.0.1.

I dunno man, I used my DS Lite for years and never had any problems with the D-Pad.

>if they'll have games that can only run docked/don't support handheld
Nintendo has good support for resolution changing. DOOM runs at something like 600p on average for handheld mode, so a lot of games could take advantage of it just to appeal to a wider audience. It would look even worse, but at least it would play.
I would prefer that Nintendo release Metroid, Bayonetta, Pokemon, et cetera before moving to new hardware. That way, we get what we were promised without the caveat of having to buy a new system. I'm fine with a revision after that happens.

When is Nintendo going to make a Joy-con Pro that doesn't fucking break after three months of normal usage

Why do people care about rumble anyway?

Cuz I'm gonna make your whole life crumble.

Directional buttons > Single button
You have objectively more precision when you input directional buttons instead of rolling across one button hoping you get the right direciton and that your d-pad doesn't break after a while. PS3 had the best 'd-pad' because it wasn't a single button, it was multiple directional buttons you could press separately. With PS4 they threw all that out the window to give us a shitty single d-pad, just like Xbox 360. As of now:
>PS3 'd-pad'
>Switch directional buttons
>Xbox One d-pad
In that order. Everything else is trash and serviceable. The only thing that needs to be fixed with Switch's directional buttons is to move them closer to each other and/or make them the shape of the d-pad similar to PS3 but making them still be separate inputs. The single-button D-pad ruins all of that. I hate fight sticks because of this, and it's also why hitboxes are better than fight sticks, you just have objectively more control over your inputs. More control/More options > less control/less options. This isn't even a debate. Separate input buttons are objectively better than a single input button with multiple points of potential failure/error. NO DEBATE.

Real witty response dumbass, here's your (You).

Tendy defense force out as usual.

Is it actually smaller than a regular Switch or the same size? I can't really tell in the video about it. I find the regular Switch horrible as a portable device since it's just too big. Anything that needs a case to take around is shit to me. (and yeah you might be able to stuff it in your pocket anyway, but you can hardly sit down then) 3DS XL already was a little bulky, but it still fit comfortably in a pocket. I know this thing isn't that small, but much bigger is still shit.

>he thinks nintendo is going to let them use this and not just block output with software

>3D games
>New revision doesn't have 3D function
Who cares

I'm not gaslighting myself, I'm just describing my experience with it. I've owned a pro controller since day 1 and I still play 2D games with the joycons in the grip because I like the d-pad on them. The exception is fighting games, which I play exclusively on the pro controller. The one advantage a cross d-pad has over the 4 separate buttons is the ability to make half-circle and quarter-circle rolls much more easily, but for everything else I genuinely enjoy using the separate buttons. They're small and close enough together that I can move from one direction to another very easily, and the separation means I never have accidental inputs. Even on really good d-pads you occasionally get accidental up or down presses, it's just the nature of the design; not so on the joycons.

Keep saying it.

Seems like it yes.
You're going to be missing out on some notable features that I personally really like but for only $200 it's a good tradeoff.

2DS made sense because children with underdeveloped eyes could get to play on a 3DS just without the 3D effect's health risks. This is just "oh let's make it cheaper because it will sell so so well, thanks Pokémon!" I mean, you could just leave the Söy-Con attached and play in handheld mode in the existing model, but apparently people have woman-sized hands even worse than Drumpft, so.. here's this.

Kek, it doesn't help there are a fuckton of games on Switch right now that have small text sizes in their UI and they'll look hilariously tiny on this 5.5 inch screen. This is why I constantly mocked the people who wanted such a product by saying this would be a Switch for ants. Those faggots should be glad they have a Zoom function added in the latest firmware version, because without it'd they'd be fucked.

Yeah, Nintendo sucks donkey balls at online. Like I Want to use a fucking smartphone to talk to friends or pay a fee to play via peer to peer. A fucking joke.

Yes I am.

Why are original switch owners so fucking mad about this though?

They all knew this was coming but denied the hell out of it because"Nintendo would Never sell the switch without the gimmick" despite the 2ds doing exactly that.

This doesn't devalue the original switch unless you wanted a true portable.

The switch lite will be a hit. The original switch isn't a true portable, it doesn't fit in your pocket. It also has a dpad. They fixed the problem. That's all that matters.

If you want to play 2 players with those tiny joycons on a 7 inch screen the option is still there. But for those of us who think the waggle gimmick is stupid will enjoy this.

Nintendo true handhelds never break, dilate harder and remember those rails at the side will eventually fuck up too, cope.

I use portable 99% of the time anyways, but not having the option there for the handful of games that are just objectively better docked kind of sucks.

It's smaller but not by a whole lot. Just google it, I don't have the image.

This, the screen is too big for the undocked resolution it has.

>calling people children when he wants a portable to play pokieman on the bus
Uhhhhh

>The only thing that needs to be fixed with Switch's directional buttons is to move them closer to each other
I disagree, they're close enough as it is. If they were much closer to each other then I could get accidental presses due to my thumb bridging over multiple buttons too easily.

Are you stupid? I play Fortnite with keyboard + mouse.

What the fuck is this shit? When will Nintendo give up on handhelds? Zoomers care more about the Zombiepads than any handheld console.

>why is it missing features?
To save $100? Are people retarded? They can't change the actual hardware because it needs to run the same games in similar quality. The only way to decrease the cost is to cut down on features. Don't be poor and buy the regular version.

>all the people on Yea Forums who said "THEY ARENT COMING OUT WITH A SWITCH LITE ANYTIME SOON DURR HURR I NEED TO DEFEND MY PURCHASE!!!"

I will say, it being portable only kinda sucks though. Would be cool ONLY if its resolution is quite high and you can easily hack it to play different emulators, like the PSVita.

Idk about this one boys

I'd buy it if it's hackable but I'm almost sure it won't be

I feel really sad for you and your closed-minded approach to life.

I don't think anyone with the OG switch is annoyed by this at all. Maybe some hardcore portable fags, but I'm guessing no docking is a huge turn off for a majority. This thing is targeted for getting parents to buy in conjunction with pokemon.

fuck no

What will happen to all games that suck major dick undocked? Xenoblade 2 and Hyrule Warriors come to mind

I don't understand who this is for or how it can even be called a "switch" either.

Agreed, they should rename it to the Nintendo Brick™.

As it is now, it's too far away for me. On PS3 I had a way to input the directions easily by rolling my thumb over them. I have to move my whole thumb now since they're too far apart. Try playing King of Fighters like that. I have to rush which makes me not press the button hard enough so I mess up the input. But I wouldn't have made this mistake on PS3.

So with this it appears they're finally dropping the 3ds. What my question is why would they drop the support of HDMI out? It seems like a pointless cost cutting measure like when they didn't include a power adapter with the first batch of 2ds's

I know rumble and IR are gone, but it at least still has gyro, right? It seemed a little unclear.

>he actually thinks this
There's been high quality pictures these faggots have put out and the analog sticks seem to have the same fucking mechanism as the existing Joy-Con, the same shitty useless rubber cap and everything. So you're fucked over there.

when are they making real d-pad joycons to match the minis?

OG Switchfag FUMING lmao

>every month
How bad so you treat your fucking controllers?

I would unironically be fine with a handheld called The Brick. It would stand out at the very least.

nope.avi

this
glad it's just the standard "cheap piece of shit so kids can play pokemon" revision like the 2DS so I don't feel burned on buying early. That feeling will come next year instead when they announce the Switch Pro

I have little hands and I still find the joycon, both handheld and detached, uncomfortable without the grip. It's fine for short rounds of gaming but if you're going to be at it for a while, you'll want the grip or a pro controller. That said, for what they are, they aren't terrible until they start drifting.

Hori put out a d-pad Joycon though it's missing some features of the full thing

>t. seething sixaxis fan

it should, it's needed for BotW, right?

It does have gyro, retard.

I still have no idea how the Switch sold so well. Expensive, crappy graphics, boring design, garbage tablet resolution. Was there really a market for TV-to-mobile portability? Guess so.

Attached: 1485727372008.gif (254x196, 1.8M)

Faggots, basedboys, trannies, women/feminazis, etc. The appeal of Switch was to play however you wanted. With this that idea just goes away and you're left with... a modern rendition of the GBA. It'll sell like hotcakes for sure, but what problem is this solving in the market exactly?

You're right that it's not great for fighting games, but I prefer a cross d-pad for those because they're just generally better at rolling motions anyway. I stick with the pro controller for fighting games and I'm okay with it. If the buttons were closer together they might become better for rolls but I'd be worried about accidental presses, and the inability to make accidental presses is exactly why I love it in the first place for things like precise platformers.

HD Rumble is legitimately cool as fuck in the games that use it well like Gunvolt, shame to see it go.

Without shitting on the original model, I welcome a handheld-focused model. I didn't want the original. This is basically a NIntendo complement to my Vita. Unfortunately, Splatoon is dead or dying, so one of my main incentives for getting the Switch is going out the window, but I might pick it up later for other titles.

How big is it? Vita size would be the ideal dedicated portable Switch size imo.

I don't care about it for myself but it's nice for others I guess.

50 ports and 3 new games WOW

The Switch Lite coming out confirms rumours of the 2 different models so yeah pretty happy for now.

The handheld mode is a good idea in theory but I hate holding the damn thing like that. It's the most uncomfortable way to play. Playing Smash in handheld mode is the most retarded feeling thing ever. This is made for poor kids and ramen eating NEETs.

>Was there really a market for TV-to-mobile portability?
It's more the idea of being able to play mainline games on the street, I never thought I'd have to consider that retarded idea for myself until I learned I'd start to have to go out of my dungeon.

Remind me but didn't a bunch of Switch games had drops of performance on handheld mode?

the screen should fill up the whole space but besides that its perfect.

Dilate and re-stitch, retard, look it up yourself.

I disagree, I'll always prefer a GCN controller but I actually spent most of my time in Ultimate with portable and didn't have any problems with it.

Imagine the hate that's going to come nintendos way if this version still has drift.

Depends on the game. Some actually perform better in handheld. Others are better docked.

Not everything revolves around Yea Forums, dipshit

If I remember correctly the metal bit ruins the plastic overtime im not sure if its a great idea overall, but it may be different for each person.

I've got bad news for you, kid. The Dualshock 3 has a single piece of plastic for the d-pad. They're only separated above the casing. See pic related from this video: youtu.be/-1ndPbM6VGY?t=423

The gimmick was not retarded enough to turn people off and actually sold it for some. Unlike the Wii-U which was so shit it was forgotten immediately. That and it had a pretty decent game library and most of them were exclusives.

Why did they keep the uncomfortable shape?

Not that I would ever do it, but the original package having 3 lithium batteries made it a nightmare to ship internationally, you had to split it into separate packages.

Less batteries to worry about is nice.

Great so NO ONE asked for this.

shameless. shill pls go.

Yes this is literally what I wanted.

>some perform better in handheld
How the fuck does that work?

Splatoon really isn't well suited for handheld play to be honest. You'd be better off with a Pro Controller for that.

The 3D on 3DS could be restricted with parental controls.
Nintendo said that the primary reason they made the 3DS was simply the price point for people who couldn't afford the more expensive models (or later on, the Switch itself).

I hope people don't waste money on this.

Totally aware. Hence why I said it.

out of all the marketing posts on this board you choose to attack the sketchy hardware mod that's probably $2 on Ali?

There's a handful of games that are just outright better in docked, though mostly nothing gamebreaking
>Mario Odyssey's Joy-con moves are just way easier to do with detached Joy-cons
>Hyrule Warriors drops to 30fps because the morons at Koei didn't bother actually dropping the resolution in portable
>Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is ridiculously low resolution in portable and has a disgusting sharpening filter on top of that
Some games actually run a bit better portable and the smaller 720p screen can do a lot to hide downgrades made for portable mode, it's something you have to take on a case by case basis.

I just wanted a cheap pokemon machine, and now I can get one, so yes I am happy. too bad there is no good looking pokemon game for the switch coming out anytime soon, maybe the second series this generation will provide something worth buying

>Was there really a market for TV-to-mobile portability?
Yes. I hate to be the guy that brings up Snoy but if PSPs were still a thing it would have some kind of screen mirroring which is more useful than a dock (although more battery consuming)

Modded mine and pirated the shit out of offline games, so I will definitely get this for online games, but only if it's confirmed the stick drift problem was fixed. Hopefully someone does a teardown soon after it comes out.

Overcompensating for the drop in system performance

>Some actually perform better in handheld

>Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is ridiculously low resolution in portable and has a disgusting sharpening filter on top of that
That pisses me off and the fact they haven't bothered fixing that shit. Its low resolution would be perfectably acceptable for a 3DS game, but with 720p being Switch's native resolution and there being increased horsepower you'd think they'd use the additional processing to make it look better. Fucking idiots at Monolith. But hey the titties (we all love them) and VGM, so good!

Programming and optimization, especially with ports. Like for example, and I'm just throwing random numbers out here, if a game was designed to run at 720p at a core clock of 1000Hz, trying to force it into 1080p at 1300Hz might be asking to much. It's way more complex than that and a lot of other factors come into play, but that's the simplest way I can describe it.

Most recently, off the top of my head is Red Faction.

They took every pointless feature out with the Switch Lite.
I love it.

how when the console can't handle the game?

What's the price tag? The yellow one looks cute.

It does support Joycons though. They mention it in the trailer.

I do not understand not including Bluetooth headphone support in their extra-portable version of their console though. That's fucking retarded.

Based handheld chad, let’s dab on these TV cucks.

Will the Nintendo peripherals still cost $70+? Or actually, I guess I wouldn't need a controller...

Boy I hope there's a bundle deal with Astral Chain + New Switch Lite.

Seems like they're just making an affordable option to allow the Pokemon players to make the jump from 3DS more easily.

200usd

It should be able to. No excuse.

Sonyfags would get mad if he pointed out the others.

I just hope there's a good bundle with Mario Maker

$200

It looks like a portable fighting game machine now. If the price is ok in my country fuck i'll bite

whites people love the office

That's nice. Don't see much point to it having a Switch, but some people I know deem theo riginal a bit too heavy.

the dpad is terrible for diagonal movement. i sold my normal ds for the dslite and it was really bad in comparison.

I'd buy these if they still had gyro and HD rumble, both of which DxM makes use of

strawpoll.me/18299588
vote your thoughts

It's not for me, it's the cheap version for children.

It has gyro. The lack of HD rumble sucks though.

My 10 year old plays on the thing in handheld for hours when I let him. Actually he's been doing it since he was 8. If an 8 year old can handle it, I would hope a full-grown adult can. Comfort of the joy cons is another issue, but still. It's not a bulky system.

I think it's great but have no intention of getting one

There were threads for weeks, months ago, talking about ideas for the new version and tons of people were describing literally this design.

where is the 'i don't give a fuck because switch has no games' option?

I hope they don't ruin the BOTW sequel so that it runs well on this thing.

would have got it just to have a smaller more comfortable and solid handheld but i use the tv too much so I'm not interested

They're not all necessarily grown adults, but some of them do have had repeated problems with their wrists.

All the press releases on it I've seen specifically mention it has no gyro

Yes, I pretty much just play handhelds so this is exactly what I wanted.
I fucking knew they were going to release a revision someday. Glad I waited, I just want to play Animal Crossing and a few other games.

Well, put yourself in Monolith Soft and Nintendo's position and it makes sense from a resource perspective
>Game already sold as well as it will, the only people who would appreciate performance bumps are people who will bought it but haven't beaten it already
>Monolith Soft is being redirected to work on BOTW2 and new projects
>better to optimize new games than old ones

On the retard bus where it belongs.

I mean, it's the same chipset as the normal Switch
So if it runs well on the Normal Switch handheld (which BOTW1 did I think), then I can't imagine the performance would drop too significantly on this

>Nintendo made a Vita
>Suddenly it's an amazing achievement that everyone has been waiting with bated breath for
It's not fair vitabros...

so it supports external joycons, but doesn't seem to have a stand to prop it up. you just lay it flat on a table and bend your neck over it? seems uncomfortable, but i guess if you really want motion controls you can deal with it.

BOTW runs fine in portable already so I'm not sure what you're getting at here.

>Get called a retard by nintendo fans for insisting this could be announced soon after e3 because that's exactly what they did with the 3ds xl
>It happens

Nintendo fans are stupid and I'm enjoying the hell out of this.

Now, what sucks about this is that it doesn't have removable joycons but STILL doesn't have positional offset for the controls. That's shit ergonomics.

No Nintendo actually included real L2/R2 buttons lmao

No, you'd prop it up against a book or something, I imagine.

I mean that's fair, but that's got to be a large minority, and there's also the option to play docked or tabletop. The point is, you either have to be a real pussy or rightfully disabled to complain about the "bulk" of the Switch.

I don't know why you would get this if you can't even play it on the TV.

You use the adjustable charging stand for the original. It has the same hole at the back.

The only thing that really bugs me about this is seeing people who were ragging on the vita for having a lot of ports just gush over the switch getting almost nothing but ports.

I don't think they even like video games.

ah-bloo-bloo

I just wanted a home only version, i dont need the portability and never will.

>people shitpost for the sake of shitposting
Wow color me surprised

You can just get a cheap kickstand, you pretty much need one for the original model anyways since the included stand blows.

Where can I find a cheap l2/r2 grip for the phat Vita? It'd be perfect for playing PS1 games if I didn't have to do weird touchscreen workarounds for some games.

this ffs

>The only bad thing is removing tv mode
I play almost exclusively on handheld mode, same back then with my Wii U, so for me this is the perfect Switch.

To be fair, a lot of Vita ports from home systems are just straight trash while the Switch's are at least last gen console quality. It hurts to say that as a Vitaboi for life but it's true.

There's a ton of them. just search l2 r2 and your vita model.

I got my grip for the slim for about 20 bucks. You're not going to find a trigger grip for the 1000 for less than 30 dollars, and you will be paying for shipping on top of that. You can search eBay or Play-Asia.

Only a few were straight trash, like borderlands and jak and daxter. The vast majority were fine.

It's no different from the switch, which also has a TON of shit ports.

Oh wait, I just found one for 30 bucks. Yeah, that's probably the lowest price you'll find. Just search ebay for one.

>removing features and gimmicks that make it interesting in the first place

I was in hundreds of vita threads on Yea Forums.

It happened, a lot.

oh no

oh no do you guys see whats happening? its pokemon red and blue all over. its gonna be the same fucking console, but with features removed from each one so each one can only be used for hand held, or portable

and then the locked to "console type" stuff is gonna creep in...the pokemon go version of pokemon on the handheld, that youll need to take around to physical places, but then theres the console only with a more features to make up for that "loss"

theres gonna be on disc dlc. and on console dlc. on console dlc and your gonna have to buy two consoles to get your whole game

>I was in hundreds of vita threads on Yea Forums.

god what a depressing sentence

Every single "HD" port from PS2 except for MGS is straight up abysmal. The downgrade for games ported from PS3/PS4 is much larger compared to Switch too, just look at the horrid RE Revelations 2 port.
There are some pretty good ports but even they're heavily compromised in ways that Switch ports usually aren't.

Oh no, I like video games and talking about video games, how terrible.

just buy it gaijin!

So if the joystick or button stop working you have to get a new console? Sounds great

Nintendo could literally shit in the ground and nintendofans would eat it up and love it. "For iwata" lmao

This is almost exactly what I wanted but it's just too big still. I feel like they could've gone all in on portability since it's not flagship but I guess this is a compromise for poorfags who just want a cheap switch.

But Sly Cooper and Ratchet and Clank were fine? God of War would have been better with less sound compression, but the game runs well enough. The only actually poor port was Jak and Daxter.

Isn't it often the case that Switch ports run worse than other versions? How is it not compromised?

Does the lite still have gyro for splatoon for example?

Of course you'd complain about it being portable only, your weak bone hands probably can't hold the Switch for very long

>"The Nintendo Switch will not be a 3DS replacement, it is our next mainline console replacing the Wii U"
>by the way the 3DS is now obsolete
I only used my Switch as a home console anyway so I don't really care, but it's bizarre how much flip flopping this thing does between the "it's just a console"/"it's just a handheld" argument. They should have settled on this from the start instead of being a weak console or a battery limited handheld. It's smarter to compete for the handheld market where nobody else is trying.

>no TV out for no discernible reason
pass

informal setting, level your grammer nazi skill up and try again later

That's not true. Sly and ratchet were fine, some of the jak games were okay, and then tons of other ports like disgaea 3, 4, odin sphere, muramasa, and ninja gaiden were fine.

There's more ports that run closer to how borderlands 2 did on vita on the switch than there are on the vita.

For someone who doesn‘t have a switch
>nice dpad
>nice pokemon edition
But I don‘t like the non tv thing. Hopefully there will be a pokemon switch version

based take, kike cucklassa.

It's objectively a handheld that is able to connect to a TV and increase its clock speed when doing so.

Sounds like a great product, if it had been released 2 years ago when the Switch came out. The hardware is so dated at this point that paying 200 dollary doos for this shit is a straight up scam.

Only played R&C1, but I'm pretty sure that ran at 30FPS.

>informal setting means I get to be an illiterate who can't use proper English

>nobody else is trying
You kinda forget that mobile swallowed this market up. Japs don‘t buy handhelds they play gacha on phones

30fps and horrible input lag is not good for a platformer.

>but at least they actually resemble their console counterparts more often than not.
The vita ps2 ports, aside from being not even all of ports it got by far, all easily resemble what the console counterparts were. Pretty much all of them run at higher res than the console version.

Ratchet also runs and looks fine, so I really don't think you know what you are talking about.

Do you really believe you were the only one here in a vita thread? For the most part you guys were left alone in your own threads anyway, you didn't get shit unless you invaded a 3ds thread and even then it was never insulted for the fact that it received ports.

>Switch Pro misses Splatoon entirely
It's not a complete waste to get in early.

that's an opportunity for $60 HDMI out + charging dongle ;^)

>Pretty much all of them run at higher res than the console version.
Barely, and it's still subnative.

and a number of the ports got major performance downgrades, ratchet and jak being the obvious ones.

30 fps isn't a problem in ratchet and clank and I have no idea what input delay you are talking about. It's definitely not there in 2/3 from when I played those on vita.

i was hoping they would really go the other way, so it could just be a tv only, cheaper switch. I mean who the hell unironically plays videogames in public. I go out in public to be a functioning adult, i save my weeb degeneracy for the basement.

No
I just bought a switch last week. My heart jumped a bit when I first saw this announcement but reading further into it I’m glad I bought the regular one

The Vita port of 1 has horrific input delay.

Still can't backup my saves. Still not buying.

Ninja Gaiden is borderline unplayable if you've ever played any other version. I mean on a technical level getting the nice looking Sigma version running at 30fps on the Vita with minimal cutbacks is impressive, but 30fps for a fast paced action game is a hard no-go.

Switch Lite is made for children. Being more light weighted so they can handle it..

Call me when there's an docked only Switch with higher specs.
I don't give a fuck about this portable cuck shit.

>charging port still on the bottom
For fuck's sake Nintendo, you had one fucking job. It's incredibly awkward trying to play with my switch plugged in while laying in bed.

I've played all 3 on the vita and if there is delay in the first then it's not really noticeable to a point I'd classify it as horrific.

That's also 1/3 of those ports.

ffx and x-2 were also dandy.

I made the original argument, that's not me. I'm talking more about ports from PS3/4. Of course ports from PS2 look about the same, even though they run worse in almost every instance.

you need to stop if you think 30fps with dips ratchet is at all acceptable

What about past games that have been released like Guilty Gear A Core RX or Monster Hunter G XX?

Will they take a hit from being handheld only?

I agree but it's great to be able to play in bed, the bathroom, or any room really.

If you are this extraordinarily anal about ports then almost none of the switch ports are playable to you either.

Maybe if it performed better, but it doesn't so I don't particularly care.

Nintendo already won Christmas though.

>Switch Lite is made for children. Being more light weighted so they can handle it..

same argument applies for basedboys with no muscle mass because their wife-enforced vasectomy robbed them of testosterone production.

>over 20
>buying a switch
top kek

>I'm talking more about ports from PS3/4
Like the Atelier games? As far as the PS4 is concerned, nothing was ported from it, only to it.

3ds kids invaded every thread we ever tried to have about soul sacrifice.

Every one.

Not really. I'm only interested in the games and not the portability, so this does nothing for me. I would much rather have had an upgrade which could run all its games at 60FPS or if that were impossible at least at 1080p 30FPS instead of

I'd buy one if it weren't for the fact that your account is locked to only one Switch at a time.

>over 10
>playing with video games
Lmao

>defending Nintendo even when you don't own their console
It will be a pain in the ass to fix the drifting.

well, yeah. the introduction of the catalogue and being able to sort by reply count basically turned posts into upvotes. no one checks half way down the page, and most people go to the threads with the most posts, so a post is an upvote.

before reddit got rid of it, they even had a better gore section than Yea Forums, which is depressing, when you consider people used to flood reddit suspected posts with gore. that shit was labelled and dated and links to sources provided for all

The d pad is cool. I really never play in portable mode so I'm a little let down and probably wont be picking one up though.

so why is this as same price as 3ds

>Why do people keep posting that autists chart
Any time you see a chart like that it's always the same guy posting them.

Makes no sense I can buy a used switch cheaper why should I buy this lite garbo also everyone who ever wanted a switch has two already

turn left to go right.

>being able to sort by reply count
Didn't know that was a thing.

Yes, but playing splatoon handheld with gyro is a fucking nightmare

That isn't true

Me neither and i've been here for over a decade

if it can run emulator's well i'd pick it up since my vita has the wrong firmware, but think that's gonna take a while JC.

jesus christ user. it says it right there in the drop down

But I already have a joy con with a dpad

How are you going to deal with Mario Odyssey's waggle shit?

wrong

You can't seriously tell me that Ninja Gaiden at 30fps is a good experience. And that's the first game, 2 is really more like 24fps.
Maaaaaaaaaybe passable if you really need your action game fix on the go, but Bayo 1+2 on Switch have long since taken that crown.

Happy for others, but this serves no purpose for me. No TV move, not small enough to be pocket size and can't remove controllers to make it pocket size like I can currently do with the Switch, no kickstand means multiplayer is non-existent and buying joycons for IR/motion stuff is a joke since you'd have to sit the damn thing flat on a table or your lap, and it's only $100 cheaper.

I hope they can add TV mode via modding. I was hoping to mod my release switch and buy whatever pro refresh, but now that seems uncertain.

You can buy d-pads to put on the joy con now.

seems alright. I don't really like downgrading in size. The normal switch was already small enough to take with me.

It will also be impossible (at least for a long time) to mod it since you obviously can't use the jig trick.

I want joycons with a D-Pad like the Switch Lite.

Nintendo is reserving dpads for the pro controller. If you want a real dpad on your joycon the only option is chink case mods.

>Vitafags seething right now
bruh, look at these dudes
youtube.com/watch?v=Y7-ZQ2X2OH0

I actually detach my joycons and play with other people in table top. Mario kart or street fighter at work is the best.

No one's seething, and yes the Switch version looks and runs better. It's a more powerful system.

just don't drop it or you're fucked, a friend of mine dropped his switch with these metal things and just fucked his entire rail up.

Hori sells a cheap d-pad Joy-con but you can't use it wirelessly, it only works attached to the Switch.

Just like any other handheld?

Or you could just buy a joycon with a d-pad. Hori makes pic related. $15 and works like a dream

I dont want one without the other.

>It's useless without it
>you literally use it without it
>But I want both!
ok

It's a cheapy so parents can buy it for kids and boomers can buy it for grandkids when pokemon comes out.

Source?

>>A majority of games will run on it. Only shit like 1-2 switch and mario party won't work but they suck so who cares
Pretty sure it has bluetooth for procontrollers? So YES you can use other joysons and play those games -_-

>This is just "oh let's make it cheaper because it will sell so so well, thanks Pokémon!"
That's literally what the 2DS was

You can play those other games, they straight up said it in the video to require regular joycons. OP is just a retard

And Japan can buy it to play while spending 75% of their lives in trains.

261$ instead of 200$ in Russia

Greedy cocksuckers!

Would never buy it; doesn't appeal to me in the slightest.

That being said, it's good that this product exists. Very useful for parents with more than one child (or poor parents that still want to give some videogames to their children), and for people that just want a cheap Pokemon machine.

>using boomers unironically
Yea Forums needs more people like you

So, let me get this straight. There are no improvements with the switch lite other then the price and the d pad? No improved screen resolution? No improved battery life? Nintendo Basically slashed out all the cool features that set the switch apart and dropped the price by $100?

>-_-

The Senran Kagura guy did a presentation showing him holding a joycon in one hand and a baloon in another and they thought it meant you could squeeze boobies.

How will saves migrate between switches? Right now saves are locked inside a switch

How is the storage going to work?

there is better battery life

32GB internal flash, expandable with microSD

Better than Americans who spend 80% of their lives behind the wheel in standstill traffic.

flap on the bottom

The battery life is improved by 30%.

I think it's fucking retarded but it doesn't change anything about my Switch purchase so I don't really care.

yep i want both so its useless without having them both you fucking retard

Source

lmao go easy on the wagie he might slit his wrists

Pony up the $20 goy. If you can afford multiple Switches you can definitely afford cloud saves!
>inb4 muh sd card

They have to make up for the fact that everyone in Russia pirates their games.

I hope it means that the pro is real also

otherwise I don't give a shit one way or the other

I'm surprised Nintendo has never gone all in the Joy-con gimmick and included unique peripherals to attach to the sides.

I think the Switch Lite SUCKS.

>yep i want both

you fucking retard

Does the online mode do cloud saves? Didn't know that

It's pretty much exactly what I was expecting a switch lite to be.

I play my switch handheld 95% of the time, and if I were to buy a new one for some reason I think I'd still buy the original version. Even if I don't use it that much, I still like the option to dock it. If the NSL could still be docked, I'd have gotten one.

have sex

suck my cock first

Now I just wanna buy a Vita amd homebrew it

What Retard made this

the paid service has cloud saves but not for all games. Animal Crossing and I think Splatoon 2 don't allow cloud saves

Do you think we'll even get a switch pro at this point?

Well whip it out then big boy

Online is the only official way to migrate saves. Wii/WiiU/3DS/Xbone/PS4 all allowed local backups to removable storage but Ninty decided to go full kike with the Switch.

Same, though I met get this for my younger sister for Christmas or something.
Can you play games like Smash Ultimate and Mario Kart via ad-hoc on more than one system? That'd be dope.

who cares? what are you gonna do when the sticks start drifting? at least with the original switch you can buy new joycons. It's cool that we get a cheaper option but I already have a switch and it's arguably better. What we need is a switch pro that improves performance. The only issue would be getting devs to go back and fix games that ran like shit on the normal switch. also can we actually get some quality controllers? the current ones dont last. my fucking original 3ds still holds up and my joycons started drifting within months

These are my feelings exactly. It also appeals to the people that want a supplemental console but didn't want to spend $300

Warframe is surprisingly decent. Especially in handheld mode. But, it has its own ecosystem, so you won't be able to move your PC character to it or vice versa, and you'll only be able to play with other switch users.

this will be fucking awesome once you're able to install cfw and emulators, basically a worthy spiritual successor to the PSP

>illiterate moron doesn't understand how the diple is used on Yea Forums and desperately tries save face by projecting his own inability to use English by turning it around on user

I like the idea, but I've never really bought into the whole portability gimmick being worth a shit. I'd rather pony up the extra 100 dollars to be able to play on my TV.

instead of finally going with the times and releasing a Pro version which might not be limited to PS2 graphics they downgrade it further. I know why I have lost faith in Nintendo ages ago.

You're fucking retarded. Radiated heat has nothing to do with processing power.
A more efficient chip and manufacturing can reduce heat-output without damaging performance.

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about in the least.

i know how its used. however, its an informal use. which is my point. your absolutely allowed to bend the normal rules of grammar and spelling depending on the setting. in this case, i didnt care about the proper you, and it didnt matter because its Yea Forums: its not formal. the only reason it matters at all, is because its a deflection being used to hide your own seething. all over someone saying reddit is better.

Mario Kart can absolutely be played ad-hoc but I'm really not sure about smash. I actually think smash is completely local on one system, or via the internet in multiple only.

Someone feel free to correct me though, I'm genuinely curious now.

UNIRONICALLLY an upgrade, I am NEVER comfortable taking my switch to work because its so fucking huge and the detachable parts absolutely kill it

I fucking hope the lite is more ergonomic, no clam form is a big fucking yikes though, a case is a pain

How do you do the special moves in Odyssey now?

Attached: clvrgrl.jpg (548x451, 11K)

I'd be happy if they release a Joycon revision with that new d-pad.

That's about it though. Nicer for people with launch or near-launch Switches that are interested in jailbreaking those systems, though I think waiting for whatever the purported pro version is.

>I am NEVER comfortable taking my switch to work
jesus christ what a fucking loser

no, literally what's the point and who is this for?

you don't lmao

>here is your 3ds successor bro

Yes it is.

My gf...

he's not saying he's embarrassed dumbass, only that it's uncomfortable to carry around at all times

what is the internal storage? not fucking 8 gigs I hope

people who want a properly portable console?

It's no longer a gimmick if it's the only mode.

They all can be done with button inputs.

I hope none of you are going to buy it.

approximately 0.2 NBA 2ks.

32, like the regular switch.

Why would it be smaller?

i’ll be interested if it gets hacked and i can play old ROMs on it, at least SNES era stuff
looks like a comfy handheld

I'd rather have a PS2 2 than a PS4, tbqh.
Modern games are trash.
