That would be like taking a RV, ripping the wheels off of it, and calling it a house. I mean you can do it. Its your RV. But that isn't what it was meant for.

According to nintendo the creator its a house. there is a concept for a house that can be packed and attached to a truck for moving. So I can call it a house that can move as well and a full fledged house since it is capable of playing most home console games while an rv cannot contain most household items. So its more accurate to call it a portable home console or a house that moves rather than an RV or a dockable handheld console.

But there is a difference. When the house is on the truck, it isn't really meant for living. Its meant for travelling to the next place it will be placed.

Switch is pretty much a RV. Its main purpose is to travel. It does it well. Even to do it right, you still have to deal with its massive size, gas mileage and the costs associated with driving it. You can live in it like a house. But its not a house. Many concessions must take place for it to happen.

Face it. Switch is a handheld with a TV out. Its not a home console.
