Why not $299.99?Yes. November 2027, $350.
Switch Lite was $100 less than a standard Switch. I don't know why they would have a larger gap here.Why not $299.99?
This seems like a better price point.
Absolutely.
They will want something more cost effective for the kids which is also smaller. They just need to move to a 6/5/4nm node.
Samsung's 8nm node is not really the best choice for a handheld when more energy efficient nodes were available, but Nintendo gonna cheap out.

It's a typo.Why is there ain the topic?
I'm bookmarking this post for the day you're proven wrong.and it will be a digital only system.

I would say before the OLED revision. Very near the next mainline Pokemon game for the Switch 2.Right after Switch 2 Pro
Even in Japan it's by far the least popular Switch (1) SKU. Despite a 2-year head start over the Switch (1) OLED it's ~2.5M behind.Would sell like hotcakes in JP.
Famitsu Sales: Week 24, 2025 (Jun 09 - Jun 15)
- Switch: 2,387 (total 20,111,932)
- Switch Lite: 5,485 (total 6,587,280)
- Switch Oled: 5,447 (total 9,066,127)
Although as a dwarfish person with my puny 6′ 2.8″, I already thought the Switch 1 was a bit overly large. Haven't seen 2 in the wild, but on pics it looks enormous.100%.
There is more case for a Lite 2 than the original Lite. I mean, I am 6ft 3, and even for me the Switch 2 feels enormous. It's not something my god daughters could really manage.
With the black-only colour and overall design, Switch 2 feels like the pro / enthusiast product, for early adopters - the kids product will follow. I don't think they even need to gimp the TV out for differentiation this time - smaller will do.
That would only sell to gym bros looking to get a workout while gaming.They're actually going to swap it up this gen and introduce the Nintendo Switch 2 Heavy.
While the Switch 2 JoyCons attach magnetically the Switch Heavy will include a pair of GymCons that attach by pure force.That would only sell to gym bros looking to get a workout while gaming.
