The Nintendo Switch Lite's announcement had the internet split. Some thought it was ridiculous, and others didn't care -- there didn't seem to be a middle. But Dylan, Cherie and Ashley discuss WHO exactly they think the target audience for the Switch Lite could be. Is it kids? 3DS owners? Switch owners? All of the above? Feel free to let us know what you think.
