If it comes, it’ll be pretty far into the future of the console’s life. Probably 6 years or so in. The Switch at $200 is a very cheap price point to hop into the Nintendo ecosystem and I don’t see them raising it to $250 so casually.

[@nienkehuijbens301]

I recently bought an oled. Didn’t have a switch or any other gaming console/pc before it. I’m very happy with it. Figured it wasn’t that much more money, given that most games already cost over €50, and the better screen is worth it. It’s slightly heavy but feels comfortable enough to me. The kickstand also allows you to rest it on your lap, table or any other surface while you play. Update 6 months later: still very happy with my switch. It's a really nice device. Haven't had any issues so far

Where did you get it?

[@sd.sophie6337]

Thank you for saying this! I’ve been considering getting a switch, and I’m not a gamer. No pc, console, etc.. and all of the videos compare it to consoles and such (which doesn’t apply to me). Do you think it’d be worth it if I mainly wanted to play only one game? Super smash bros seems super fun and I really wanna get it

[@nienkehuijbens301]

@@sd.sophie6337 depends on how much you want that game haha. Though in all likelihood, even if you only get it for one game you're probably going to end up getting more anyways. There's quite a few options that aren't too expensive. Maybe you should have a look at some of the other games you could get and if any of them seem fun to you i'd say go for it.

You get better battery life than original Switch with lifespan of 5-9 hours over the original's 3-5 hours. You get full backward compatibility with original Switch games as well as upcoming new ones.

I am a collector, and own all of the Switch consoles mentioned in this video, in addition to the Animal Crossing special edition. That said, I enjoy the Switch Lite the most - its rigid design and handheld portability feels very nostalgic to my childhood of playing Nintendo handhelds. I love seeing it on my collectors shelf next to my older Nintendo handhelds, seeing how far Nintendo has come over the decades. The lite really hits my sweet spot due to it's size. I really wished Nintendo would make a translucent Switch lite from the factory, so I wouldn't feel compelled to re-shell it myself.

[@OnlyAtWaterlooRoad]

Got my first switch for Christmas, we got the normal one. We got it on a special deal with Mario Kart for just over 200 meaning it was way way cheaper than the OLED for us. Personally we don't use it much handheld, only really if we are travelling so the better screen doesn't really make a difference to us. Waited all these years to own ANY switch so I am so happy with the normal one. OLED is properly worth it if you don't get the normal at a special price but anywise I don't think the better screen is worth it for how much more it is. But I don't think you can go wrong with any switch, it quickly became my favorite console. As for battery on the original, as of today it hasn't died yet and this is with me and my brother taking it in turn to play for hours at a time, so I wouldn't notice the better battery.

[@Itz_Data]

i know i'm super late, and i know that someone else has probably said this, but the newer switches actually do have a different nvidia tegra chip in them. the og switch has the x1 and the newer ones have the x1+ with the only real difference being the power efficiency (so therefore battery life)

[@Riversky88]

I recently purchased the OLED model for Christmas and it is an impressive system. My only caveat is I wished Nintendo would have upgraded the hardware and increased the resolution for it. Mainly the flagship games look great with its deeper contrasts and vibrant colors like Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, Zelda, Metroid Dead, and etc. I know most Switch games run at a native 720p but that extra resolution and hardware bump would have been amazing. Playing Monster Hunter Rise in 60fps on OLED would have been the chefs kiss.

[@therealsploge]

I only have small games/musical games yet (the bigger one is Ni No Kuni, and I only own it for four days...), so the TV mode is almost too much. I probably going to play on TV mode when I get the big names, as the BOTW or Mario Kart and such (when I have the money for a 60€ game XD). But for cozyness and a nice, fun short game session on the train, it works for me. And also love the white colours and the screen. I think anime games such as the Taiko and Ni No Kuni look beautiful with the higher contrast.

The thing is, I have the money to buy the OLED version, but it will internally hurt me.... on the other hand, I'm scared that if I'll buy the Lite version, I will regret it later. And the regular Switch? Well, I don't like the middle ground here because I will always have the voice in the back of my head that will say "Dude, you could have waited and pay $50 more for the OLED version.... what have you done?!?" Anyone had the same problem? Help? (I won't play on TV, or very rarely)

I would have bought a Lite on day one if it could be docked, I love the size and love how its all one solid unit but the fact that it cant actually "switch" is baffling, its legit just as simple as giving it HDMI out support

[@kolour7611]

For that you have the original one. So it makes no sense to put a lite that its only aim is to use in portable mode, to be docked. Take the original instead

[@Oracle2448]

@@kolour7611 nah but they removed the video out capability, it's all attached would have been good if you could be a tiny dock for it. And use a separate controller

[@kolour7611]

@@Oracle2448 You can read again, but i repeat. You want it portable, buy lite. You want it less portable but also to use on tv. Buy a normal one. The aim of the lite is something different and if you want it to be docked you need two controllers or one more depending on play with people or alone. No sense.

[@Oracle2448]

@@kolour7611 You do understand get a light and use it. I owned a lite, I used it portable and liked it I liked the buttons and handheld feel feels way better than the normal switch. At home I have a TV when I got my lite I didn't have my own TV. I got a lite, I liked it used it alot. One thing I just wished is it could connect to the TV when I'm at home. The lite feels diffrent than a switch the buttons aren't the same, the dpad is good on it. I recently sold my switch lite to get a normal one to use on the TV because during covid I was at home more. Siting on the couch playing it, I wish I could get a controller and a USB to hdmi or even if it was possible a mini dock to use my TV. Lite only aim being portable is just not true, it took a slightly different approach, and it feels amazing in hand compared to the normal switch. I would choose a switch lite with docking capability over an OLED or the normal one Anyday.

[@hike4082]

@@Oracle2448 ngl the switch lite was meant to be smaller so its easier for handheld but i heard you can dock it via phone streaming but its kinda weird

Nice job and explanation, you help me to decided to go with the Oled one for long term use.

[@tobiasgvenus]

Glad I could help

[@xymaservesu403]

I ahve a tv in my room, that's where I'm going to use it most of the time anyway, so an og switch is for me. It'll give my useless TV a use

[@MinerGT]

I've had the opportunity to use all three consoles and here's my pitch: 1) Switch OLED is the best option as it has the most benefits with more oversized buttons and a better stand. The only downside is that the storage on this console isn't really any better than the other two but that can be easily resolved if you have an SD card or some external hard drive. 2) The OG Switch is the option that I think is the only thing you should be getting if you can't afford the OLED. For a $50 difference, I'd still recommend the OLED model. 3) The Lite model is what I would only give to kids or children because for anyone in an older class, I don't think it's the way to go. Less battery time, no TV Play, smaller buttons, no stand, etc. I guess the only good thing about this model is the joy-cons that you'll never lose but even that has its downsides. It's not uncommon to buy new joycons. If you're looking to play on the road or on the go, mostly by yourself and not really with others, just buy the Switch Lite. If you love multiplayer and do consider playing with friends, especially at home, get the OLED model. If you can't afford the OLED, the regular Switch model works just as well.

[@sageanimations2463]

Take the regular switch, It's handheld you can play mario party in it without using another controller or joy cons you can play it as a tv console on your home and it has the same specs as the oled and lite. *IT'S PERFECTLY BALANCED AS ALL THINGS SHOULD BE*

[@Wolkentoetje1991]

Or go for a PlayStation instead?

Sir, this is a video about Switch.

[@kingthehacker9061]

I really want to buy the oled one but in my country they selling it for 530 dollars And 400 for the normal one

[@waytooboring-]

was going to originally go with the lite, but after looking into it more i went with the V2. the extended battery life and the docked mode makes it more than better than the lite for portability and full screen gaming.

[@kcblack3810]

I had the OG switch that I shared with my sibling, but after developing a disability that affects my hands I couldn't play anymore without causing me pain I had to buy the switch lite Wich hurt my pocket but I was so happy I could play games again

[@beatboxer1551]

I already have the PS4 when I want to play a game on larger TV. So when I purchased the Lite, I was so satisfied with it. Because what I usually do is I play my PS4 when I wanted to immerse myself on the story and a graphic-intensive game and has a heavy combat system like Uncharted, Ghost of Tsushima while I play my Switch Lite when I just want a chill game and just wanted to lay down and explore without worrying about anything so my usual games will be Animal Crossing, Zelda BOTW (or any other Zeldas) and Pokemon.

My Lite's LCD just died. I'm considering to buy the OLED model rather than fixing it. But if there's an improved Lite model, I'll probably go for that one. For now I'm just settling on playing with my Lite's broken LCD. It's still playable with scan lines and 1 glitched line on the right. Those scan lines really takes me back to the GBA or PSP era. LOL

[@mayoman3781]

also consider multiplayer. I mostly play in handheld, but on the go multiplayer important to me so i got the normal switch

[@hauptmanngilbertoduber9953]

Everything except the nintendo lite is kinda an unsafe option. The console is 5 years old and there are numerous rumors about a new switch coming. Would suck to buy the Oled version just for a new nintendo to get released.

[@scooter2745]

I’m gonna get a normal switch, and it’s just the best for me.

Well in my country the OLED one its almost 200€ different than the normal one so I dont think its worth it to spent so much money only to have a bigger screen with the same resolution

[@AbledProduct265]

200 is nothing fo me its around 1.5k-2.5k

[@challengerdrakava1198]

Uhm. the switch lite has a better screen then the OLED imo. more ppi sharper image rather then a stretched out blurry image on the OLED.

[@Andreas16375]

I love the lite but you really feel the impact of the small screen on open world games like the witcher 3. On most games it's great though

[@ComradeChyrk]

My buyers guide for switch. If you already have a switch, dont bother upgrading to the oled. If you dont have one already get the oled. Beyond that the only other advice is DONT GET THE LITE. You lose the ability to swap out joycons which is huge being that joycon drift is such a big issue and if your switch lite gets it, your screwed. Plus you lose out on docked mode. Its not worth the cheaper price

They have classic red and blue if that’s what suits your style. Personally I don’t care for the white either :)

You can also buy skins/decals/silicone cases for your Switch if you want to redress it in another colour (or pattern) :)

I'm thinking of getting the Switch lite this year. I have small hands and even struggle with big phones, so it seems more user friendly and in my budget at the moment. I think I'll hold back on buying the Switch or the OLED until I can afford to, plus a newer model may come out soon.

[@thatguyhubbs9280]

Heres a quick conclusion, if you were a fan of the ds, get the light. If you were a fan of the nintendo 64, get the og switch. If you grew up with, and love both, get the oled.
