If you can’t get your hands on the latest Nintendo Switch 2, you might be able to keep the FOMO at bay in the meantime with a clever mod for your Switch Lite. Retro Remake’s co-founder, Taki Udon, posted a video showing off a working version of the SUPER5 OLED Touch HDMI mod. As the lengthy name suggests, this third-party mod adds an OLED display, a glass touchscreen and HDMI output to the Switch Lite.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is barely a month old so it’s too early to expect any news on a Switch Lite successor. However, the Retro Remake’s mod adds some crucial upgrades to Nintendo’s handheld that was released in 2019 and gives us some idea of what a next-gen version could look like. Notably, it’s a no-solder mod that mostly only requires connecting cables and can output 1080p HDMI video to a larger screen than the Switch Lite’s 5.5-inch LCD touchscreen.
Retro Remake previously offered a SUPER5 OLED Touch mod, which lacked the HDMI feature. Adding the extra feature proved to be a serious challenge, according to the company’s co-founder, who said the project took “18 months of R&D, just as many failed revisions, and more than $200K in costs.”
“I can’t describe how soul-crushing it was to go through so many failed revisions,” Taki Udon wrote on X. “After the third failure, I was hopeful every subsequent version would be successful, but they weren’t.”
Testing is still underway for the SUPER5 OLED Touch HDMI upgrade kit, but the latest post shows that the Switch Lite mod playing Mario Kart on a larger display. Retro Remake’s HDMI upgrade kits start at $90, but are currently sold out on its website. According to an email sent out to preorder customers, the company is unsure of when it will ship these kits out.
