. But I am not stupid. I know what a home console is and what makes something a home console. I have almost 30yrs of consoles to look it if I need to be reminded. I also know what a handheld is and what makes it a handheld, again.... I have 30+ yrs worth f hardware to know what that is. So i am sorry, but when nintendo takes what by design, form and function is a handheld and ships it with a dock that lets you connect it to your tv....... that doesn't suddenly make it a home console for me. Regardless of whatever kinda PR BS nintendo spews.

If I am wrong? fine... if this somehow makes me silly in your book? thats fine too. But as i said.... I have seen a lot f handhelds, and the NS is looks and acts more like a handheld than anything else... so idk......

More interestingly though,  try something. Type "all handheld consoles" on google and see what pops up. Then type "all home consoles"..........

Well, if you go by "it's not what a console is used to look like, it's more like a handheld because I've seen both in 30 years and that's dictates me how I see what is a console and what is a handheld", I can make non-sense arguments to answer that.

What cell-phones looked like for almost 20 years:

What they do now:

And what they're will in the future:

Does it look like a phone to you ? But it is.

Yes it does.... physical buttons were just replaced with soft buttons in a screen. But the form factor is the same. Fits in your pocket. Has a battery. Makes calls.

But since you have so many pictures on tap.... how about yu show us pictures of all handhelds and put the NS next t them. :)

But lts not derail this thread any further I have made my points... you have made yours, we dont have to agree.
