So, you never noticed that portabe games usually have shorter levels and mission structures designed for small bursts of play, while console games are designed for long cinematic sessions? Ok...

You are not telling the truth. I did not admit the Switch is a portable.I admited that it has a secondary function that lets you take it with you for a while. It's main function is Home Console. And no the PS4 isn't a portable console, just like the Switch isn't. That was the point.

We are not comparing the quality of the services but the fact that the services exist and by themselves don't change what is the main purpose of the device. 

The games I mentioned, no, and even if that were true to a significant degree it has nothing to do with whether or not the Switch is portable.

The bolded is you admitting it's portable. That you think it's a secondary function doesn't change the fact that it can be played on the go.

Again, terms like "main purpose" and "secondary" n "primary" are irrelevant. It's playable on the go, that's all that matters in terms of whether or not the system is portable. Though, seeing as the whole point of the Switch is to be played anywhere, it's portability is definitely a big part of it's main purpose. You can't play anywhere if a TV and wall outlet are required.

If its irrelevant then the PS4 is a portable cause it has the same function with the Vita. That logic = zero sense.

Sure, if you want to get fooled by the advertisement, even though Nintnendo themselves say the Swtich is a home console. Go watch the Fire emblem direct, they say it. So, this is your opinion vs what Nintendo themselves recognised.

Yup the most popular games on 3ds lately have been like that, Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Monster Hunter...wait a second

I get the impression you are trying to just throw dirt in the air here. Yes, Fire emblem, pokemon and monster hunter ARE designed for short bursts of play. I don't even know how you can say such an outrageous thing.
