[QUOTE="Blythe93, post: 10323180, member: 614575"] I play most of my games on my modded regular Switch which is an early 2017 Erista unpatched model. I wouldn't recommend Switch Lite for you first model, or main Switch console even. Despite it being "budget" model, it has several cons: [LIST] [*]Can't be played while docked, no TV output. (It's really comfortable to hold while in hands, though.). [*]No rumble. (Not necessarily a con, but something to consider.). [*]No removable joy-cons (Although you can connect another bluetooth controller to it and put your Switch on a stand or something, however ridiculous it may be.). [*]Buttons feel mushy (Again, not necessarily a con, but something to consider.). [*]Smaller form factor and screen size. [*]Hacking is possible only with modchip, no software exploit yet. [/LIST] As for the pros: [LIST] [*]I like its D-pad a bit more than what we have on the left joy-con. (For the regular Switch, there's a Nintenod licensed left joy-con made by HORI with a similar D-pad). [*]Less cables to carry around? You only need a charger. [*]Despite buttons being mushy, I love how ZR and ZL buttons feel on the Lite. [/LIST] Therefore, I'd suggest you get a regular Switch as it's still the best model in my opinion. Unpatched Erista model, if possible. Or OLED with a modchip installed, whichever fits your budget more. I would totally recommended it for Nintendo published games (anything Super Mario, Zelda, etc. related), I love each and every one of their games (Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Mario Party, Mario Party Superstars, Super Mario RPG, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom to name a few and many, many others). f you're looking to play games like Witcher 3, for example, I'd suggest getting anything else other than Switch. Game's somewhat fine, lags here and there, but it's working and with Switch being portable, it isn't all that bad after all. Still, it leaves a lot to be desired. Plenty of other games fall into the same area. Nice. ^^ I'm glad that some people like the game despite its limitations and lack of promised features. I've played Fallout (3, New Vegas and 4) and The Elder Scrolls (Oblivion and Skyrim), so Starfield sits well with me. I like it for what it is. Skyrim, Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas kept me busy for a year each. :D Unless you're not a completionist, you did good this year. If you are, however, you're a madman and I respect that. 10x Starfield? Yep, I'm not doing that either. That's why I stopped playing after a while and waiting for a DLC to come out or something, see where Bethesda will go with it before I mark it as finished. [/QUOTE]
