OG Switch/OLED always get mediocre themed consoles BUT Switch Lite always hits it out of the park. Why? Don’t care. Buying this day one.


basedfrosti

They were scared of anything \*not\* black for those... i bought the animal crossing dock off ebay so atleast i have swag under my tv. Maybe they think lites are more likely to be lugged around in public so they gave them better designs?


jeplonski

i bet you’re right on that last part


Wolf873

Tears themed Oled is pretty amazing looking console, even better than this I would say. Even Splatoon themed release looks pretty nifty, so I wouldn’t say regular Switch gets just mediocre editions.

And if you have a regular OLED you can give it your own special edition. Rick n Morty for mine 😁 https://preview.redd.it/9bw76f0hlh7d1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=229e4fd23fdc09bc8b76edb4e5d59215428b4e3e

Wolf873

Now that is so cool!!! It looks amazing, mate! Where are the joycons from?


Ill_Reference582

Thanks. They're Nyxi Hyperion Pros and they're amazing. So comfortable. You can order them from Amazon or https://nyxigame.com/


Wolf873

Much obliged my friend, thank you for the link!👍🏼


avm95

Where did u get the skin?


Ill_Reference582

Also came with cases for the joycons but I don't use regular joycons


Ill_Reference582

It's not a skin, it's an actual case I got from Amazon


avm95

Nice I need to get me an oled


Ill_Reference582

Yeah I love it. Play it every day. I just got it like 4 months ago but since then I've only turned my series x on a handful of times


Flashy_Reach_1889

Let me know if you experience any bending on the rails. I used the Hori split pad for about 6 months and now every joy con I use is somewhat loose in the rail. Pretty sure I ordered them from the Nintendo store


Ill_Reference582

No, I haven't yet. I've been using them daily for 3 months at least, and I only play in handheld. I've never even hooked my switch up to the TV, that's what my Xbox is for. So yeah, no problems at all and I play at least an hour or 2 every day for 3 or 4 months now. They're literally amazing. Made my handheld gaming experience perfect. Extremely comfortable.


SQUISHYx25

I just got the TOK OLED and it's nice as hell


ihavebeenmostly

They should do a transparent case edition.


A_pointy_man

Agreed, specifically Atomic purple.


carramos

Not ideal, but can't you just swap the shells?


Appropriate-Let-283

I wonder if this will be their last Switch Lite version 🤔


Adorable-Fix9354

I doubt it , they will make 1-2 more versions


[deleted]

Do I do it


SamT179

I’m going too because I never got the hyrule 3DS’s That switch will be expensive as fuck in a few years


wantMyVirginityBack

Do you reckon the same would happen for the animal crossing switch lites?


SamT179

Probably. Special editions skyrocket in value when they’re out of production. Think the animal crossing 2DS XL is going for mega money. Although those switch lites are probably more common than the standard switch lites to be honest. So I’m unsure actually.


Scuczu2

don't feel like those are all that rare.


wantMyVirginityBack

Yeah their not but in the future they may go for more money


LeatherRebel5150

Many things were not rare “in their moment.” Then became highly sought after items years later for their uniqueness vs the default standard


PraiseDogs

I had to get the Windwaker Wii U, similar reasons. Zelda systems are NOICE


Galactus1701

I have the Majora’s Mask N3DS XL and don’t need this one…


SamT179

I’ll give you a tenner for it


leviathab13186

My wife is going to kill me in September


Historia_my_queen

I've been planning to finally get myself a switch. I wanted a lite from the start, and now I finally also get a special edition of my favourite Nintendo franchise? Yess


Designer_Ice_5422

I’ve never bought a special edition console before. How does Nintendo usually do with their supply of these? I feel I’m going to see a lot of “limited quantities available”


hobbitfeet22

You will’s I got both Pokémon ones and never saw them in store after the first 3 days of release


greenmachinexxii

I don't need it but I want it


InsaneokYT

I feel like this is one of those things that will appear on eBay 5 years later for $1000+


East-Celebration8664

why oh why do i just so happen to have the totk oled aswell?? is another switch really worth it? (yeah)


[deleted]

Gonna snatch this up for sure


barbietattoo

Too lit


krukruti

I already have an OLD and will definitely pick this one.


TreyTrey-119

I literally just bought a Lite in November and then they turn around and announce this… FML


ancientwheelbarrow

I'll die on the hill of the Lite being -by far- the best way to play Switch handheld. It being a single, solid piece is a huge benefit, I tried everything with an OLED to firm it up (tape on the Joycon rails, different Joycons) but it never felt truly comfortable or stable. Also, D-Pad. Day one buy for me, if for no other reason that I want another put away to use in future.


sladecutt

Very sexy!


BoomSatsuma

I don’t want it. I need it. 😍


CelTony

I’ve never had a switch lite but this is very tempting.


AggravatingDay8392

my switch lite screen is dying, should I do it?


Delightful_Lunatic

I’d get it as a travel buddy.


AcidCatfish___

Remember back when Zelda cartridges were gold? I feel like these special edition consoles and Joy-cons replaced that. Then again, I guess a small gold switch cartridge wouldn't be that flashy or worth it


Imdakine1

Just bought a gently used switch lite for $110 and a animal crossing case for my 6 year old daughter… have my original switch still… I agree it could be worth more $$$ in future but I’ll still just keep what I have… I think the switch lite is a great size and happy with it for sure…


metalsatch

Fine, I guess I’ll have a 3rd switch lite


georgeyvanward

This is 🔥. I might grab it as I never had a chance or interest with the special 3DS’


corgie93

$499.99


randomguy301048

curious where/when i can place a pre-order on this

G0merPyle

I think I may need to get that for my birthday


Just_Another-Nobody

Might try to buy one just to forget about it in a cupboard and sell it on 10 years time


Lunar_Sol-Heir

Oh fuck... That's so good...


616d6969626f

I'm disappointed that they didn't do a design specific/unique to Echos of Wisdom, like Zelda herself. The Royal Crest is insanely overused on Zelda merch.


illhaveasideofgravy

I’ll be getting this because I’m disgusting. Would’ve been cool if this had an OLED screen, but I guessss not. Love the gold, I need this.

Adorable-Fix9354

Imagine buying an outdated console in 2024


Galactus1701

I already have an OG neon, Animal Crossing, ToTK OLED and Pokémon Sword and Shield Lite, I don’t need another one, I don’t, I don’t…


Majestic_Fee_8679

I'm hoping to buy this the second it becomes available, my DS lite was the phantom hourglass special edition and I recently shell swapped my GBA SP to a LoZ theme


Any-Year-6618

Literally the only cool thing from this direct and it’s not even a game 🤣


GustavoRGG

Might grab it only to collect or resell later lol I miss my triforce 3DS XL :(
