They have left the traditional console market, that now is basically all going to be Sony/MS. This thing won't be competitive in that market sense, no one is going to seriously say  or something.

It can output to a TV sure, but you could also by that metric say an iPad is a home console because you can play games on your TV through it too.

Nintendo is basically a portable game maker now, Switch will amalgamate the market for 3DS/Vita together (what's left of it) on the higher end, and 3DS will be kept around for a year or two as a low end option, but they basically now specialize in screen-based portable form factor devices, one of them just happens to be able to hook up to the TV, which is common for modern mobile electronics. Most smartphones and tablets can connect to a TV too if you really want to do that.

Except the console can play the same games as ps4 or xbpx and people are seriously gonna say "I was going to by a PS4 Pro, but I bought a Nintendo Switch at the last minute instead" It moght even have extra power in dock which no smartphone or tablet has and it will have a traditional cotroller which no handheld has so why would the name only affect anything. a smart person would say who cares if its a handheld it plays skyrim and mario and many home console games so screw this naming debate. Just call it a portable home console
