And where is the problem?

The problem is that the people don't understand this.



Ah, so this is about PS4. I thought it was in response to the recent confirmation that NX is indeed a homeconsole or at least if it's Fusion, there will be a homeconsole device launching soon.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Long as you understand that most people that say console mean home console. If you go into a thread that says "PS4 best selling console this generation" and you go in to argue about how the 3DS is actually doing better than you've just turned off your brain momentarily so that you could argue about how great Nintendo is doing when I think we all know what the OP meant.

At the same time, clarity of purpose is the responsibility of the writer.  If the OP is, "what will be the best selling console next gen," it's their fault if they only meant home consoles but people name a handheld.  I've seen that develop into an argument a million times on VGC when it could easily have been avoided from the very start.

If console = only home console, why the necessity to put "home"? 

It's not that difficult to understand, right?

Except people on this site rarely write home console, I almost always just see console. 



bit nit picking, but okay

Then people are dumb.



We're not going to fight you on this.
