Anyone can with this. Or you could just use a tablet-style laptop with a wireless controller. But that's besides the point. The Nomad is no home console even though it's capable of acting as one. The switch is no handheld even though it's capable of acting as one. It's a weak home console.

hahaha you cant be serious?

Sure a laptop is the same thing as a handheld when you physically strap it to your body.

So you can carry a tablet style laptop & a controller at the same time while actually playing it?

I honestly have no idea what point you are trying to make.

That you're cherry picking your definitions of what is a handheld and what is a home console so that both appliy to the Switch. When those definitions are used to see what else would qualify it becomes obvious how ridiculous your definitions are.

Then again, you're the one that takes pretty much everything Nintendo says as biblical truth, except the part when they say the Switch is a home console. For all you know they're going to announce a successor to the 3DS next E3 and no handheld games will ever come to the Switch, but hey, keep "reading between the lines", right?

You are arguing sementics and you know it.

Oh No!!!! I didn't 100% come up with the perfect definition of a handheld when I wrote a single sentance summary that took all of 10 seconds. Instead of thinking, "yeah thats a basic generalization of what a handheld is" lets argue over how other non-handheld devices can become handheld devices if you buy retarded & impractical accessories.

"Laptops are clearly handhelds!!! With this here revolutionary suspender device you can strap a laptop directly to your chest and play anywhere!!!!!" Ya man, thats totally the same thing.

I take everything Nintendo says as biblical truth? Please explain how you came to that conclusion? Like you said, I'm calling bullshit on Switch not being a successor to 3DS, pretty sure I called bullshit when they said they would continue to support Wii U as well.

Please show me a single time when I have used, "But Nintendo said it so it must be true!!!!!" or something along those lines as an argument. Guess what? You can't find one because I have never used anything remotely close to that as an argument.

Like I said in my last post, I have no clue what point you are trying to make other than arguing for the same of argument.

That's good. But.
Remember, the Radeon 7770 is also a GDDR5 card. Not DDR3.
The 940M is just DDR3.
DDR3 version of the 7750 was sometimes up-to 90% slower than the GDDR5 version, it would be more pronounced for a chip that has even faster hardware, like the 7770, that needs the bandwidth even more. ;)

And I think you might finally be catching onto the point.

Rubbish. Pretty much every single flagship handset is faster than the Switch.
Every single high-end tablet is faster than the Switch.

Even when the Switch is docked, it's laughably inadequate.

There is no excuse for reducing the clockrate of the CPU and GPU in the Switch to such an extensive level other than trying to save on cost, so they can get away with a smaller battery.

Huawei mate 9 with 8 GPU cores? Wow. I can tell that is the best BiFrost powered GPU on the market and you have won this discussion.
(BiFrost goes up to 32 Cores.)

I think you are mis-reading my intention.

I don't expect PC power in a mobile ARM chip and thus in a handheld device. (Although it would be nice.)
I want "Good enough" performance, which an ARM chip *can* provide so as to make ports more viable, frostbite can go lower than the Xbox One's hardware and still look semi-decent, but the way the Switch is right now? Not happening.

Remember. The Switch is also a stationary console. It also has to compete with the PC, Playstation 4 and Xbox One... And it also needs to compete with Android and iOS devices aswell.

Switch just has to get 3DS (and maybe whatever is left of the Vita and Wii U userbases) owners to buy it. It doesn't need to, nor is going to compete with the PS4/XB1.

This is plainly and obviously not the system Nintendo would have made if they were interested in competing against Sony/MS. 

In fact I'm beginning to think the *main* reason the Western branches are pushing it as a "console" moniker is not because they give two shits about PS4/XB1 but because they are more worried about people looking at it and saying "oh its a tablet, I already have a tablet". They are more scared of tablets IMO, that's also why they are rushing it to market in the awkward month of March, because they are scared tablet makers will look at this idea and say "hey ... why don't we throw some cheap plastic wing controllers right in the box of our tablet and call it a console too?" ... no doubt Nintendo knows that's probably coming and wants to get at least some mileage out of the idea before the 100 other tablet makers inevitably start ripping it off. 

They are worried about tablet makers like Samsung, that makes like 20 different tablet models a year, they are more worried about them making a Samsung Galaxy Switch knock-off, not so much Sony/MS. Nintendo knows they lost that battle a long time ago. 

"Console warriors" on the internet only see things through the limited prism of Sony Vs. Nintendo Vs. Microsoft FOREVAR, things have changed a lot, Nintendo has other priorities. 

And releasing a weaker "console" in a market that has been running for 3years is suddenly a good idea?

Switch is a "console" only in marketing terms. It is not a competitor for the PS4/XB1, people need to just get over that already. It's a mobile chipset in a mobile form factor with a mobile battery and a mobile display that just has a $5 plastic dock for HDMI pass through thrown in. 

There is no place left for Nintendo in that market, even MS is having trouble getting scraps from Sony's table, Nintendo would be left with just bread crumbs. 

Nintendo's window to compete in that market has long since closed, and they can blame themselves for it, but there's nothing unless you have a time machine that can go back to 1995 or 2000 handy that can be done about that now. 

Sony/MS even took a giant dump on the whole "Nintendo should one-up Sony/MS with a more powerful console!!! Yeaaaa DUDE!" line of logic, because Scorpio and PS4 Pro kinda corner the market on what you can put into a $300-$400 box, had Nintendo made the "generic PS4 competitor console" and chosen a "sensible" chip like a 2.5 TFLOP Polaris like many people thought was a great idea, they'd be totally fucked right now by Sony/MS releasing mid-gen refreshes. 

problem isn't going to be the graphics being lower than 720p (upscaled) the problem will be how much compromise are devs willing to take to port the games and the sales they need to get to justificate it

Problem is that one chinese company already kickstarted this design (i'm ignoring shield tv at the moment), but for western yes, Switch will be the first show.
