In the end, they will market it as a handheld. I imagine the lip service towards being a home console will end by E3.

I figure they'll advertise it as both a console, and portable, since it is that.... unless maybe Japan. Since handhelds are more popular there, I wouldn't be surprised if they focused on the portable part.

Dance my pretties!

Pretty much. I hope they market it very well. The lack of marketing for the Wii U was a big factor for its failure.
