Agreed.  Yeah, it's kind of funny that there doesn't seem a reason why you need ever detach the mini-controllers from the tablet.
And just use a "normal" controller when docked.  Although I expect they will charge you extra for that. 

mobile multiplayer. You can give one of the halves to your buddy so they can control the game with a miniature SNES controller.

Yeah, there's that... I'm not seeing the point of the "sandwich" core though...
Although I guess it's cheaper to include that than full controller.
But it looks like the real controllers will be noticeably better, so no real reason to use the "sandwich" except as a backup.

Curious what they do on the price... Or if they do offer a 'tablet only' bundle without dock + controller sandwich for $50 less etc.
Honestly, the "Switch" name seems to make the hybrid aspect so central to the concept that I doubt they would do the above.
If they can get it down to $250 at least in a smaller-storage-capacity economy model, that will help IMHO.
