Nintendo has just revealed a fresh blue color variant for its most successful gaming console, the Switch. The Blue Nintendo Switch Lite console will be available for purchase across Europe starting May 7, while US fans will be able to pick this one up from May 21.
The Nintendo Switch Lite is a handheld game console by Nintendo. It was released on September 20, 2019, as a handheld-only version of the Nintendo Switch. It plays most of the same games as the original Nintendo Switch and comes in five colors. The Nintendo Switch Lite was unveiled on July 10, 2019 and was known in development by its codename MH. Nintendo Switch Lite is a small and light Nintendo Switch system at a great price. With a built-in +Control Pad, and a sleek, unibody design, Nintendo Switch Lite is great for on-the-go gaming. Nintendo Switch Lite is compatible with popular games such as Super Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, The Legend of Zelda.
“By expanding the existing range of color options for the system, the blue Nintendo Switch Lite gives you more options to express your personal gaming style wherever you choose to play,” explains Nintendo in a statement.
With the addition of the new color, the Nintendo Switch Lite is now available in five different colors: blue, coral, grey, yellow, and turquoise. Unlike the regular Nintendo Switch, the Lite version has integrated controls and is smaller and lighter. Still, you can play the same games and you should be getting the same gameplay experience as you would on the standard version.
Cheap Nintendo Switch Lite
The biggest downside of the Switch Lite over the traditional Nintendo Switch is that it can't be docked, so you are limited to handheld mode. Besides that, you won't have to deal with recharging your Joy-Cons since the Switch Lite comes with integrated controls, as we mentioned earlier.
As far as the price goes, the fresh new blue Nintendo Switch Lite will cost the same as the other color options already available on the market, so depending on region, you will either pay $200 or €200 for one.
In other news, Nintendo announced the upcoming release of the New Pokemon Snap, a game designed specifically for handheld play. New Pokemon Snap will be out for the Nintendo Switch family on April 30.
Finally, a second game coming to Nintendo Switch soon is Miitopia. A game that lets played star in hilarious adventures alongside their family and friends, Miitopia is scheduled for launch on May 21.
