So Nintendo spoke people is also on the let's call home console or handheld depending on the situation instead of always calling it a hybrid?

The Switch is a Hybrid.

But I'd say it's mostly a home console, than it is a handheld.

I've had to explain this many times, but I'm gonna try again. The $299 price point, games at $60, marketed at young adults(instead of children). Games with extensive campaigns. The Switch was shaped the whole way as a Home console primarily, that you can take anywhere. NOT as a handheld that you can connect to the TV.

I would say their signature handheld at the moment is the 3DS, still.

Nintendo's been positioning the 3DS as more of a budget alternative to the Switch recently than their main handheld line. Every-time they talk about it, they always mention it in the context of it being a gateway to the Switch, not as their main way to play games on the go.
