It is a handheld, you can argue that it's "hybrid", but arguing that it's a home console holds no weight. just like using a dock for your phone doesn't make it a house phone just like playing gameboy games via super gameboy doesnt make them home console games just like playing a pspgo/psp3000/vita in a dock with tv out doesnt make it a home console It's simply a dockable handheld. |
I'm not really arguing that it's a home console. Though I think you can't deny that it plays home console-type games, or at least the ones we've been accustomed to since 7th gen. BoTW, Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Splatoon 2, and Xenoblade 2 cannot easily be replicated in the handhelds we've known prior to the Switch. Personally I think of the Switch a console that has the ability to play home console games wherever and whenever like a handheld.
