Nintendo Switch is what you need to brighten your mood or shrug off the Monday blues by indulging in exciting games. The video game console is all the rage among gaming enthusiasts, largely due to its unique ability to deliver stunning handheld graphics quality while effortlessly taking on the role of a premium home console. That said, despite being such a cool gaming console, it can't claim to live up to everyone's taste. While some may not like the split D-pad, others may find the right analog stick too oddly placed. Well, if you're one of those who aren't yet charmed by the Nintendo Switch or are looking for something cheaper/more exciting, this list of the best Nintendo Switch alternatives 2020 has got you covered.

If you want a cheaper and lighter alternative to the Nintendo Switch, look no further than the "Nintendo Switch Lite". The all-new gaming console looks quite compact, making it well-timed for gaming on the go. Unlike the Switch, the Lite has the Joy-Con controllers fully integrated, making it a good bet for casual and younger gamers.

Like the Nintendo Switch, the Lite has also got a nice screen. But unlike its bigger sibling's ultra-large 6.2-inch screen, the Lite variant has a slightly smaller 5.5-inch screen that's up to the mark.

Additionally, it also comes with a D-pad style trackpad that lets you get on top of your games with conviction. While it's not designed for a tabletop experience, you can fill the void by pairing it with a super handy accessory.
