Customer Ratings & Reviews

Finally picked up this smaller handheld version of its big brother and boy am I glad I did. I’m able to play with the kids and we can DL all the best multi player games thru the Shop. Must have for gamers on the go!

Everything from ordering ease to cost to shipping went perfectly. Item as promised. My 10 year old autistic grandson loves it; hours of pleasure for him.

My daughter 7 absolutely loves the color and the size. I don’t have to worry about losing a controller!

I got this as a gift for my Niece. She really likes it. The size is perfect for younger gamers. Very well made and solid.

Battery life is great. Love how portable it is. Build quality seems excellent like any Nintendo product. I never planned on playing it docked so that’s why I went with the Lite

Item works great. However, not mentioned the item needs a microSD card.

Absolutely love this system. It is designed for persons much like myself who enjoy the convenience of traveling with my games without carrying around a console. I love all the games I had brought for the system as well. Overall, thoroughly pleased with this purchase

Its a Nintendo switch and it works. Great for a child so I don't have to share mine

Bought this as a B-Day Gift for my teenager who has to share the family switch with his little brother and sister... peace for everyone now :) It is an excellent device anad with cloud saving, he can go back and forth between devices

If your looking to update your switch system or simple just use the SD card and have your system storage free then the 128 is enough for any beginner.

This handheld gaming device is superb! The functionality is off the charts! It is very well built, it’s sturdy. The games are fun, and most of all can do it all on the go! If you can get your hands this spectacular device, do it! Nintendo’s best was put into this handheld!

I average it out at 4 stars. The actual unit was perfectly fine and immaculate out of the box. It functions exactly how it’s supposed to and has zero issues. Hence the 5 star portion. The 3 star is based on the concept. Look, everyone’s got their opinion. Mine is that the original model Switch is just all around smarter. First you get a bigger screen, not hugely bigger, but still, it’s an improvement. Second is the well known ability to “switch” between handheld mode and using on the big TV that most gamers and families have. Third is that even as a wholly handheld system Nintendo has shown that the joycons are substandard quality, so if you ever need to replace them you can with the original model, you can’t with the Lite for obvious reasons. Fourth and lastly is that the original model has a lot more options for, well, everything that it does and offers, like adding extra joycons and while maybe only a few games aren’t compatible with the Lite version (due solely to the controls) odds are many will miss Mario Party and that’s on the list of games that’s controls are incompatible with the Lite. Just get the original, you’ll be far happier.

Love this! Battery life is great and it's perfect for travel.

This little gamer is so much fun my son loves it and he’s 4 years old I enjoy it myself as well lol

Absolutely love our switch lite. So nice to have traveling, in the car, at home, wherever. Holds a great battery life. Easy for even the not so tech savvy adults.

if you wanna play anywhere and not worry about plugging into a screen ever its great. compact and cute and the colors are fun. reminds me of a psp in size. i play it every day!

I use this switch when I travel as I have another one that stays at home in the dock. Having the smaller size and slightly longer battery life make an excellent companion switch!

I got this for my son, but when i realized that i had to purchase extra controllers to connect with my daughter's game console, we decided to upgrade, because it was the same price upgrading and buying controllers. Now the 4 of us can play.

Initially I skipped on the first original switch, but when I saw this lite version come out I knew I just had to have it. It reminds me of my old turquoise GBC. This is as good as everyone says it is! Tho all you get in the box is the game and charger only, wish it came with more accessories.

Controls are largely intuitive for a generation familiar with hand-held controllers, and/or handheld gaming. I purchased in anticipation of sheltering-in-place during the Covid-19 pandemic as an alternative to the larger Nintendo Switch. I found the controls and smaller sizing compared to the Switch in portable mode a perfect compromise for convenient game play. However, certain games e.g. high-resolution and / or more interactive game-play like Zelda: Breath of the Wild or even Assassin's Creed, would likely be more enjoyable on the big screen option offered by the larger Nintendo Switch console. All that to say, I'd definitely recommend the Nintendo Switch Lite for fans of the old GameBoy or GameBoyColor, and newer / younger gamers. The handheld fits nicely, is more portable, and isn't as much of a pocket crunch if lost damaged during your travels. I'd easily throw this in my carry-on luggage, or commuter bag for a road-trip, business trip or leisure travel. Its the perfect size to keep younger riders entertained on a journey, so definitely a great option for families with multiple children, or young / nostalgic adults from the 80s, and 90s. I would recommend.
