It plays exactly like a home console in my house. Wireless controllers, local multi-player with the family, digital surround, external storage via USB. Feel free to point out another "mobile" device with those capabilities. The switch is more than a mobile device with TV out. It is a shame you can't see that. |
How you use it is irrelevant.
Many people use their laptops hooked up to a keyboard, mouse, display and speakers 24/7. Doesn't make it a desktop, it's still a laptop.

I have my Samsung Galaxy Tab sitting in the Kitchen, which has a wireless controller where I can play local multiplayer with family, which outputs to the Blu-tooth digital sound system and connects to USB 20TB of external storage.
Does that mean my Tablet is also a fixed home console going by your definition?
We don't change what a devices form factor is based on usage... And that is what it is fundamentally about, form factor.
The Switch is a tablet with built-in controllers, just like the Steam Deck, Ayaneo, Asus ROG Ally and even devices like the Anbernic.
It's a handheld. It's technology is 100% purely handheld and mobile derived.
