When i called the Switch handheld back in 2017, people critisised me and told me its more like a home console "because Nintendo said so". They completley ignored the fact, that Switch Lite was handheld only in 2019, yet some people prepare to change their mind again only because the Switch might eventually surpass the PS2. They are afraid of something that did not happen and is not giaranteed, yet they start telling me that i "cannot compare" those systems because 1 is a handheld and the other one a console.🙂 |
Who are those people and how did they strictly forbid calling it a handheld? I've been using this website since 2007 and I don't remember reading anything like this. That's as weird a claim as everyone supposedly calling Kinect a failure...
The Switch is technically a handheld (form factor), but it doubles as a home console in purpose. This puts it in an advantageous position when compared to any home console or dedicated handheld. So if anyone wants to downplay its success, accepting it as a hybrid would be the better argument for them.
Switch (2017) trouncing the Vita (2011) in power is hardly more impressive than 3DS beating PSP or Wii beating the PS2. Who on earth would be mad about a new device beating a 5 or 6 years older console?
