So whats the cheapest way to get into Nintendo switch ecosystem??

 

 

 

If you want a pure handheld experience, then get a second hand switch lite. Loads are available now. gameloot has it for 14K so you can find one probably for 11-12K. But if you want the dock mode then go for second hand V2 consoles which are also available now that people are upgrading to OLED.

Is it worth buying one 2nd hand??

 

especially with the stick drift etc?

Stick drift is a concern even for new units. Since we don't have official Ninty presence, no warranty on even new ones as well unless you can source from abroad.

 

I got stick drift and joycon charging issues after 4 months on the launch model. Bought a pro controller and still using that. Got a V2 last year but it's working fine so far.

If you're remotely interested in playing handheld, OLED model is the way to go. 

If only docked, 2nd hand V2 + Pro controller.

I get that, but I’m not gonna close to 40k on something that has no warranty and 2. something I may rarely play.

 

 Just want to dip my toes

Just get a 2nd hand lite then. OLED models now go for around 31k I guess. Not really heard of Switchs' breaking. JC drift is real though. You can't replace them on Lite.

If you mean swap out then it can be done, per ifixit the sticks are connected to the rest by a tiny ribbon cable, so no soldering is needed

Get the switch lite then. Should get one for 12- 15k in good condition. If ur buying used just check if you can go online, some hacked one are banned & can't connect online..

 

this one looks good. 

 

I've found this on #OLX. What do you think? Nintendo switch lite ( 1 month used) www.olx.in/item/nintendo-switch-lite-1-month-used-iid-1673643274

I’m a little wary of olx tbh. There is one for 14k on gameloot.

 

 Anyone have any experience from there?

14k for pre-owned Switch Lite is overpriced, IMO. 

 

Saw some almost new ones going for 10-11k on TP few months ago.

Why would you buy a handheld that is not a special edition?
