Q: Can this be hooked up to the TV and used as a regular switch if I purchased additional controllers?

submitted by Julie - 5 years ago
  • A: No because it doesn’t have any joy-cons

    submitted byKoenxs9 - 5 years ago
  • A: No, you cannot, there is no video output put into the device. The only way is to put a phone camera in front of the switch lite, and connect that to the tv and play off that, this tends to make the switch to have delayed reactions.

    submitted byBob Willis - 5 years ago
  • A: No, only the regular switch can be hooked up to a TV the lite is supposed to be portable/on the go system so hooking it up to a TV defeats that purpose

    submitted byB - 5 years ago

Q: when the switch lite comes out can you still dock it to the tv even though it said in the trailer it said you couldn't. maybe we can dock it if we use nintendo's official smaller dock.

submitted by 123 - 6 years ago

Q: What is the difference between the nintendo switch lite and a regular nintendo switch?

submitted by Haley - 4 years ago
  • A: Another difference is that for the Nintendo Switch, the battery life is approximately 4.5 to 9 hours. For Nintendo Switch Lite, the battery life is approximately 3 to 7 hours. No huge difference.

    submitted byDee - 3 years ago
  • A: Hi, Haley! Regarding your question about the Nintendo Switch Lite: The Switch lite has a smaller 5.5" screen, does not include Joy-Cons, or a dock for connecting to a TV. The best way to think about it is that the Switch Lite is going to be a handheld console for the most part where as the standard model has the ability to connect to a TV easily as well as be a handheld. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact MyTGTtech at 877-698-4883 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    Very disappointed. The battery died two months after purchase, but after the allowable return date, so $200 loss. Never expected with a Nintendo product but will think twice before every buying again.

    Alfred - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
    I ordered this Christmas gift for my 6-year-old cousin and Target delivered it to the wrong address. The photo shows it clearly on a different front step. I tried to report the issue online and it tells me "something is wrong" and to call a 1 800 number. I'm now on hold for over 15 mins and counting. I have a bad feeling that my little cousin won't have her gifts before Christmas

    This rating is more about a worry than reality for now. Ordered online and when it arrived in a box but with 0 packaging and clearly already looked used. Mind you it is advertised as new, however definitely seems like I received a return or something instead. It is a Christmas gift for 2024 so I hope there isn't anything else wrong with it. Attempted to reach out to Target about the order, but I have not heard back with any solutions or explanations.

    This is my first handheld console at 42 years old. I absolutely love it. I enjoy it so much. The battery lasts a long time. The volume and brightness is just perfect. You can adjust it to your liking. The color is just beautiful. Nintendo is my favorite video game console. You just can’t go wrong with it. So many game titles to choose from.

    Bought this for my son in March. We have a case on it at all times and it has not left the house. We made sure to give it a full charge before the first use. It’s now June and it will not hold a charge. Of course, it’s passed Target’s tiny return window for what I would consider an expensive item. I would not recommend.
