Hello friends. This is my first post in this forum. After several attempts, I am unable to connect my Nintendo Switch Lite to my TV. Although, I am not an expert on this matter. Can anyone provide any suggestions, that, how di I connect both of them? Any help will be appreciated.

Hi, Anthony. Welcome.

Regrettably, to my understanding the Nintendo Switch lite lacks the capability to be used in your TV by itself. The lite version is handheld only.

If you wanted to be able to cycle between the TV and portable mode you are going to need a Nintendo Switch that comes with a dock - which is the part that allows you to connect with your TV. Right now the original Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch OLED both have that capability.

Here's a link from Nintendo with more information on the differences between all the consoles:

The Switch Lite, cannot be connected to a TV. Only the regular switch and the oled switch.

All it says is you can use a recording device and stream to your tv, like a video camera or a phone. Not properly displaying to your TV.
