Just think of the Switch as a portable game system, the successor to Vita (since Sony is not making one) with a TV out.

It's a lot easier to rationalize its design and performance that way.

Nintendo wants to be able to sell $49.99-$59.99 games on it so they want to use the "console" moniker to justify that price, but lets be real no one in their right mind is going to use this as their primary console unless they are a hardcore Nintendo fanatic.

This is not the Wii all over again either, that had a legitimately completely different way of playing games and an obvious 100% untapped market to aim at. This is just basically a Wii U gameplay wise except you can take it out of the house instead of just being limited to home portability.
