You think so ? I talked about this a lot with a friend of mine today because imho considering you can put the Joycons in another pocket the 6.2 inches screen should be easy to fit in most pockets/bring around

Who's going to lug a Switch into the bathroom at work for a quick break? 3DS is easier to conceal and it turns off when you close it. Right back into your pocket. Who wants to bring a Switch onto a train and have someone steal it right out of their hands? It's just calling for attention at that size.

On the other hand, who would lug around a Nexus 6 or Iphone 7 anywhere for a quick break? Because that's basically the size of the Switch minus the joycons. Switch can be shut off or presumably be put into rest mode with the flick of a button. Be honest here, most people you see in public places or transit have nothing better to do than look at their phones or tablets when they have nothing to do. Most of these devices are more expensive than a small Nintendo handheld. A theif would always go for the Iphone/literally any other smartphone or tablet in plain sight before reaching for the Switch.
