Following months of speculation, Nintendo finally unveiled the Switch Lite this month. The news is obviously a major deal for GameStop, which will be selling the hardware in a couple of months.
GameStop chief customer officer Frank Hamlin reacted to the announcement in an interview with GameSpot. While speaking with the site, he said:
“We’re incredibly excited about it; I think it’s a real opportunity to grow Switch penetration within a family. I think it’s also a really good adjunct if you haven’t gotten into the Switch yet as a way to get into the Switch ecosystem if you’re presently playing on other systems.”
The Switch Lite is scheduled for September 20. It will launch in yellow, grey, and turquoise colors. A special Pokemon system will release in November.
