I guess we can lay the blame on Nintendo for calling their new handheld a home console.

It is hilarious that we have this battle going on. Seriously, if Switch is a console, then so was PSP Go. You could buy a dock and compnent cables, and use the Dual Shock 3 to play games, watch movies, listen to music, look at pictures, and browse the web from your TV.

The only thing Nintendo is doing different is shipping every one of these handhelds with a docking station. It is basically Kinect and Xbox One all over again. You could get Switch for $200 or $250, but instead Nintendo is forcing you to buy an HDMI, and a Dock.

No matter how convoluted it is, I know that I am just talking to the wall, becuase fans will be fans.

You just compared Switch to PSP Go and proceeded to say you were the one talking to the wall. This isn't going to get you very far...

The point is this is not new, and it is has been done to bring portable devices to the TV before, example being PSP Go. PSP was also sold as bringing PS2 quality games on the go.

I would believe it was a home console if it came with something like the WiiU Gamepad, and had a 4G connection, that could play games from the stationary unit anywhere. 

In all reality, Switch is a Tablet, that can connect to controllers, and dock to the TV.
