Nintendo denies it too. But the Switch with an optional dock, a better battery, simpler controllers for an overall cheaper price as an official new handheld would have a way better reception. But they don't want to announce that they leave the home console market, even if it's really dangerous for their product. 

I never fault the liar as much as I fault the people that believe the lie. For example, Donald Trump said awful things about women and admitted to sexually assaulting women. Then he lied about it. Yes, I dislike that... a lot. However, I dislike the idea that any woman would support, make excuses for, or believe him even MORE than I dislike him.

Nintendo telling [obvious] lies for business reasons (that they think are beneficial to them) is stupid. But people believing those [obvious] lies and buying or not buying the product based on those lies is even worse than the lie itself. As informed consumers, we should be able to call out a lie. We are not the uninformed and/or ignorant consumer. This console is a hand held with video out.

Just watch Nintendo release a handheld console next year that is incompatible with Switch games. None of the 3DS's mainline franchises have been announced for the Switch. They continue to stress how the Switch is a home console, and it's very clear with Nintendo's decisions over the past few years that they are completely out of touch with market desires. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see Nintendo announce a handheld around  E3 2018, and it shouldn't surprise you either.
