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

    submitted byC - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi, Julie! Regarding your question about the Nintendo Switch Lite - Yellow: No, the Nintendo Switch Lite is is a dedicated handheld device and was not designed to be connected to the TV.

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
  • A: You cannot dock it to the TV, but you might be able to charge it on that dock. Docking to the TV is definitely not supported though.

    submitted by - 6 years ago

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

submitted by Haley - 3 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.

    The only thing I don’t like about this specific switch model is that it doesn’t support rumble in the controllers. So when I’m playing animal crossing I can’t feel the rumble when I have a fish on the line.

    Alfred - 3 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.

    I bought this for myself for long roadtrips and travel. Mind you... I am an adult so I take care of stuff. Just like most electronics one bad drop and it's over. So if you're buying this for a kid i would look for something else. Over all super fun, cheap, and portable!

    I got this for my sister when she was put on bedrest with a risky pregnancy last year. She enjoyed playing Stardew Valley and Super Mario Odyssey and Luigi's Mansion 3. She said it was a relief to be able to "escape" to a different place during a stressful time.

    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.

    These are junk now . Bought three for my three kiddos for Christmas and they are all not working . They have cases on them and have dropped onto carpet and game readers stop. This happened on our regular switch too. We had to have the game reader fixed for 90 dollars just for it to break again in one month. Not durable at all . I’m very disappointed in the quality .
