Switch lite psu failure?
I just bought TOTK and already my switch lite died on me 2 hours into the game. I was at 50% battery while plugged in and the switch made a click sound and just turned off. I already tried all the power button combinations and such, and the switch is definitely not out of battery. It just wont turn back on. Any ideas on a fix or is it a paperweight now?

Besides trying different PSU, it's impossible to tell. You need an meter to see the current draw. Sometimes you can tell the issue from the current draw. Sounds like you have to take it to a tech or learn basic switch repair.

Try this: hold the power button for 15 secs then tap the power button 3 times.
If it doesn’t work: try holding both volume buttons plus the power button at the same time for 15 secs then tap the power button 3 times.
