Grabbed this. My coworkers son has leukemia and has to get a marrow transplant. 90 days in hospital. Hopefully this is a good start for him to occupy his time

Very good price. The physical of AC:NH has only been $30 once on Back Friday. So it's a $40-$60 game and like a $100 for the Switch Lite.

It's a good game for everyone, no violence, very kid friendly. Pretty much a designer game if she is into that.

There are various reputable sources, Nintendo themselves being one of them during a shareholder meeting, saying that they will reveal the next console before the end of the current fiscal year.

Source: https://variety.com/2024/digital/...235992962/

Besides that, the Switch is now 7 years old. The largest gap between Nintendo console releases so far has been 6 years. They are more than overdue for a new console.

So there is more than enough evidence at this point to confidently say that it'll be released before the end of 2025.

I wouldn't pay over $100 for a Lite. It felt cheap to me and I sold it after a year.
It is comfortable to use though

The game is tied to the first Nintendo account that opens the Nintendo Store on the Switch Lite. I would recommend setting up the Switch just far enough to redeem the game, then power it off and store for later.

The next Nintendo device is most likely less than a year away. Just something to keep in mind.

Even if you don't plan to buy it right after launch, there will be bigger discounts on all Switch consoles after it releases.
Nintendo won't be lowering the price of the Lite to less than $150, if at all. More so if the Switch 2 costs the rumored $500. This is literally $100-$120 for a new Switch Lite, and $40 for the games. My used GBAs are now worth more than when I got them.

Plus by next year the inflation will Mae whatever price drop that MIGHT happen be meaningless.

Yes, it is comfortable. The buttons felt cheap and the inability to dock were downsides.

I had to replace the analog stick in my wife's switch lite that we got during the lockdowns.
It's not the worst but it was certainly not fun. Given the chance I would rather have gotten a regular switch so that when the stick drift happens I wouldn't have to take apart the entire console.

It has been out for a little over a year and Walmart has been selling at this price for the last month or so. Target has the Isabell / Pink edition for regular price of $200

And yes, the Animal Crossing game is digitally tied to the handheld, there's no code.
Does the game become attached to a user account or does it remain forever with this specific console?

Nah, won't be $500. $399 is my guess. That's why they are using LCD instead of OLED..keeps costs down. Nintendo stated last year that they make less profit on the OLED Switch than any other model.

Highly recommend!

I paid retail when these came out, comes with Animal Crossing (digital). The console looks dope. I suggest getting a clear case, people on Reddit reported that scuffs can remove the design on the back easily.

I don't know how you're coming to that conclusion. Nintendo has had a $100 end-of-life model for every console and handheld since the Gameboy Advance. The only exception was the Wii U but it can be safely assumed the reason for that was because it was a massive failure of a console for them and they completely abandoned it after less than 4 years on the market.

Their new console will definitely not be $500. Nintendo uses older components to keep the cost down because they market themselves as the inexpensive option. They want it to be priced as low as possible because they know parents will have an easier time buying a $300 device for their kids compared to something more expensive. But the trade off is that their consoles can't compete with the performance of their more powerful and more expensive competitors.

Lastly, inflation has not hit electronics as hard as it's hit other goods. I don't really know the reasons for this but it's just facts.
