Nintendo’s more portable Switch gets matching 8BitDo controllers

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
In way, these new wireless controllers from 8BitDo kind of defeat the purpose of the Switch Lite
So, why do I kind of want them? Honestly, I&m pretty enamored with the new, more portable version of Nintendo wildly successful console
As I noted in a recent review, it exactly the take on the Switch I was looking for as a TV-less frequent traveler. Nintendo Switch Lite
review The idea of an accessory that roughly half the size of the Lite kind of goes against the whole bit about &built-in& Joy-Cons
Also, the Lite doesn''t have a built-in kickstand, so you&re either finding a way to prop it up or playing it flat on a table
Neither scenario is ideal, and yet here I am, thinking about shelling out $25 to augment my setup with a matching turquoise version. Life
comes at you fast. The controller actually sports two D-pads, rather than sticks, which is nice for all of those NES and SNES titles that
have been added to Switch Online
Honestly, my Switch playing has been like 95 percent A Link to the Past since I started testing the Lite
The controller is up for pre-order now through Amazon and set to start shipping at the end of October — plenty of time for me to come to
my senses.
