That's false, the only marketing they gave to this thing was showing it like a clear hybrid, both in the reveal trailer and in the Jimmy Fallon show, an obvious hybrid, you can use it as you want, whatever else they say in a report only people in forums would read is irrelevant, is clear that they are marketing it like both.

I remember clearly on the reveal a post saying Nintendo was calling it a home console on a note about it.
I can't say if what was posted here was true or made up, but it was definitely posted here, and people here talked a lot about it.

I think it was related to this: http://www.polygon.com/2016/10/20/13347910/nintendo-switch-home-gaming-system

That's why I wrote this part:

"...whatever else they say in a report that only people in forums would read is irrelevant"

The general public goes by what they see on the marketing, and that's where they show Switch as an hybrid.
