Dude again the purposely obtuse mess isn't going to work. You are free to express your opinions but you aren't expressing your opinions if you are telling us we consider Switch a home console. You are free to say it is a handheld but not free to tell me I consider it a home console or console and then debate it. That's a strawman, you could have just kept it about the question initially posted. It initially looked genuie until you strawmanned everything just to protect PS2. You even went into another thread and did it. You even called out another poster for refusing to engage with you. People aren't blind, we see what you are doing.

Also why aren't you debating what I said? Do you agree? They are all gaming systems and Switch is aiming for PS2's current title of highest selling gaming system but you tried to strawman people into the agrument of it (Switch) considered a home console and shouldn't be compared to PS2.

I have been an active posting member of this site for almost a year.  Trolling or using psychological warefare tactics to bait people is against the terms and conditions of vgchartz, so if I was doing all of that I would have been banned already. It's like accusing someone of being a violent criminal when they have a clean criminal record. If you feel/ others feel I am playing psychological warfare tactics with people like you are suggesting, then I don't mind if you, along with the others all report me to the mods, because that is against the terms and conditions of this website

"highest selling gaming system" yeah well if it sells more than PS2, that is undisputable isn't it? There is no strawman, it's just handheld sales and home console sales aren't usually compared. Whatever the 2nd best selling home console of all time is, is considered 2nd best even though the DS sold more than it. Different categories. 

You are correct and maybe you should consider thats not what your post were actually doing (the rule) and consider the mods just view your post as disengious and completely strawmanned and maybe that's not the same as the rule. Also maybe you weren't reported?

Regardless, yes that is your opinion and you can express that and we simply disagree. I don't see anything wrong with comparing them because they both push into each other boundaries such has playing handhelds like home consoles on my TV with a separate controller and playing home consoles on the beach (Sony's ad) via remote play on PS Portal like a handheld. I think the lines are getting too blurred. My Switch is used the same as Wii. Nice chat and if you genuinely didn't mean to come off the way you did my apologies for my post making you feel potentially attacked. Your post have come off that way and I assure you other posters agree.

Edit: I want to add that this is another example of you trying to bully everyone into fitting your definitions. You do not get to determine this (what is or isnt comparable) or anyone else besides Sony, Nintendo, and Xbox because they define this market. You might ask why them? Its because they are the ones that release these products, without them, the market doesn't exist, and that means no console market. Retailers play a role as well due to them being the ones that bring the products to consumers. All the retailers have them in the same location, take a wild guess at why that is? This is why I used Sony's words to show you. Sony grouped them all (their consoles and handhelds) as gaming systems.
