    I only had the original Switch, so this is my second Switch system. This one is beautiful, and the material on the back actually feels different, like it won't get greasy from my hands? I ordered a clear case to preserve the design, but this console is designed pretty well. My fingers used to get sweaty on my original Switch because i tused to get hot from playing handheld for a while. I'm excited to finally have a Switch Lite. My order came with the acrylic stand bonus, but I accidentally broke it (see pics). I have gotten acrylic stands from other videogame preorders, but the back is thinner than usual for the backdrop. I managed to fix it with scotch tape lol. The console works great. It is much lighter than the original. It feels like plastic in a good way, compared to the original Switch being heavier due to the glass. I linked my Nintendo account from my main Switch, and I can download save data from my other account.

    I originally purchased this to souly collect and keep sealed sitting gorgeous on my self next to my Totk Oled. But as each day passed its golden shine beemed brighter through my eyes until i found myself holding its Golden glory naked in my hands. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS handheld Nintendo Gaming console bravo again Nintendo! 12 month Online subscription is a NICE added Bonus also! I recommend every father buy their son or daughter this as their first Switch to introduce them to Nintendo and Zelda. Everything you could ask for can be purchased through the Nintendo Eshop and a 1tb SD card will store anything and everything all at once! 7.5 / 10 Performance 20 / 10 Beautiful Design 8 / 10 Controls. 9 / 10 Overall Satisfaction Garaunteed!!!

    Favorite gaming console

    The most sleek and elegant looking console I own. It’s my first time owning a lite version and I can never put it down. I love the all gold color and symbol on the back. It truly does give off a “gaming console fit for a princess” kind of vibe. I get a lot of compliments for its look. And functionality works just as good with my other accessories. This is by far my favorite console.

    I most definitely didnt need this since i have an oled but its amazing and I love it. I intend to only play my zelda games on this but if you plan to get digital just keep in mind its storage amount is absolute joke and youll need an sd card.

    Really cool design! I already have an OLED, but decided to get this limited edition lite. It’s been great! Very light weight and compact. My only complaint is I wish the battery life was a bit better, but good buy so far.

    I love the Switch Lite, probably even more than my OLED, but i gave my nephew my blue one while he was here on vacation. This Zelda model was on preorder but i just walked in on release day and they had a mountain of them. I love it though. The Gold is nice, and looks great if you have a black case. Nothing beats the Switch Lite. It’s comfortable to hold and the screen is awesome *mwah* chef’s kiss!

    This is absolutely amazing. As a Zelda fan, this is a fantastic special edition console with great quality and attention to detail. Even the paint on it isn't just a plain color, it's got a subtle glitter to it that looks really nice and isn't overbearing at all. Absolutely recommend.

    The switch lite is well made, nice build and compact to carry around and play on the go. This particular version is decorated with a Zelda look, which is nice and great for collectors of consoles like I am. It does not have any wrap or sticker tabs when it comes new in the box.

    Oh it’s a MUST have. It’s beautiful, and in my opinion the best feeling Nintendo due to the size and portability! Also comes with a year of Nintendo online ?? Whaaaaaat!! God is good that’s all I’ll say ! Heck of a deal for the price.

    A masterpiece in Design

    The console is beautifully detailed with gold accents, hylian iconography, and subtle artistic flourishes that draw inspiration from Tears of the Kingdom. The Joy-Cons feature elegant patterns inspired by the Triforcd and Zonai motifs, and the dock is a piece of art on its own— featuring a gleaming golden design with engravings that evoke both nostalgia and excitement.
