Switch Lite offered a new option for customers to have a cheaper way to play Switch games. However, Joy-Con drift is still a thing (which is a big problem because Switch Lite is a dedicated handheld with no removable controllers on the tablet) and Switch Lite cannot be played on a TV.

We have never had a TV-only Switch and Switch 2 is too early in its life to get a Switch 2 Lite or TV only version.

Should Switch 2 eventually get a Lite, maybe even a TV-only version with the same specs or a Pro console?

Should Switch at this late date with tariffs and other manufacturing considerations get a TV-only option? 3DS get 2DS XL after Switch already launched, so a new SKU isn't crazy even if it's unlikely.
