Portable only makes little sense. You can't get much cost savings from ditching the little hardware required to connect to the TV. You can only get rid of some plastic and the output ports.If they were to make an SKU ditching the hybrid concept, a home-console only SKU would make a lot more sense. You can ditch costly parts like the screen and the battery, and ofcourse you could still ditch excess plastic.

I actually haven’t heard this suggestion before. Most assume a handheld only because that is where Nintendo is most successful and what makes Switch so appealing, but with the successfulness so far, this wouldn’t be a bad option in the future. I doubt they would want to stray that far from their original concept though. Definitely an interesting take. 

I'm not saying it will happen, but if they were to make a non-hybrid SKU, a home console one makes more sense than a portable one imo.
