I haven't used my Switch much in the last couple of years, but with that new Zelda and Advance Wars coming out this spring there's finally exclusive content coming to the platform I'm looking forward to. However Switch games look crummy on a 4K TV, especially compared to modern Xbox and PlayStation games, so I often find it hard to spend time on Nintendo games at home when I have huge backlogs of great games on those more contemporary platforms.
This has led me to an abnormal plan. What if I bought a Switch Lite and tried to play those games as handheld exclusives? I haven't really played handheld games at home since the PSP, but with spring and summer coming up maybe I'd find the time to play handheld stuff while camping, traveling and so on.
I'd still like to keep my regular Switch for the TV stuff, but since a used Switch Lite can now be bought used for around 100 euros I don't mind the extra expense. I guess the other plan would be to upgrade to a Swith OLED, but the full-size Switch tends to be a bit too large for me to comfortably throw in whatever bag I'm traveling with. I know that this might be the worst time to invest in new Switch hardware with the next console likely coming out next year, but I don't want to wait a full year to play that Zelda.
OK long preamble, but what I'd like to hear is any and all experiences from you duders on the Switch Lite.
- Is the lack of rumble a distraction?
- Does the console feel considerably smaller than the regular Switch while traveling?
- Does the smaller screen help the 720p resolution look a bit better?
- Are cloud saves somewhat of a standard now, so that I could switch between playing on my two Switches?
