It's both. That's the whole point.

ITS KABANERI

Is a laptop with an HDMI port still a laptop?

The answer is yes.

The Nintendo Switch[b] is the seventh major home video game console developed by Nintendo. Known in development by its codename NX, it was unveiled in October 2016 and was released worldwide on March 3, 2017. Nintendo considers the Switch a "hybrid" console; it is designed primarily as a home console, with the main unit inserted onto a docking station to connect to a television. Alternatively, it can be removed from the dock and used similarly to a tablet computer through its LCD touchscreen, or placed in a standalone tabletop mode visible to several players.

it's whatever fits my argument at the moment
>too expensive
>IT'S A CONSOLE
>underpowered
>IT'S A HANDHELD

It's console fluid, shitlord.

Since it is build to accomodate a handeld form it will be always a handheld first. The fact that it has a dock that let's you play on TV without any performance gains does not make it a home console entirely.

In short: handheld 1st, home console 2nd.

yes

what about shit sales? handheld or a console?

Both. That's like, the point of it.

...

Go to 7 minutes and 48 seconds.

>A home console that can be taken with you.

No need for a poll. Nintendo has classified it as this. So that's what it is.

...

This.

Clearly the answer here is sonybro

nah

It's neither expensive nor underpowered though, get a job.

yes.

Nobody ever said it's the first time you can output a handheld to your tv, fag.

The Nintendo Switch(tm) is an handheld with a poor battery, so they tried their best to provide an enjoyable recharge time with a TV output that sometimes, upscales the resolution.

...

it's expensive for a handheld and underpowered for a console

>le poor battery meme

lol

nah

>Switch battery is not poor
I don't know if it could have been better with todays technology, but 3 hours will always be poor, no matter.

That's a home console

your mom is a home console.

This isn't a democracy

Nintendo has repeatedly called it a home console

switch is the only handheld with a paid online, its ok when nintendo does it

That's 3 hours under heavy load, my man.

dont get ahead of yourself bro, switch has its own accessories too

>21 seconds unfunny meme post
You have to go back

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum

your mom should go back

Neither, it's a hybrid

>someone took the time to do ALL of that
Voice chat in Switch is fucking retarded but the level of autism needed to make that picture is too much even for Sup Forums standards.

It's a handheld console

man fuck nintendo

It's neither, because one excludes the other, yet it tries to do both. We call such things failures where I come from.

tablet

It can switch between the two.

no it isnt, its typical Sup Forums tier image, switch on other hand is something such unique that literally no other console did before and probably no other will do in the future

But failure is what we call you where I come from

Only sonyfags want it to be a console

You realize handhelds are a type of console, right? What's even the point of this poll?

From a hardware standpoint it's a handheld. By Nintendo standards it's a console. So it's both.

have you missed bottom left part? some retards took time to defend switch with such drawings, that sure is too much even for Sup Forums standards

>getting this defensive because someone didn't like your shitty, unoriginal and unfunny picture
Here, have another (You)

>gets BTFO
>"h-have a (you)"
dont post next time if you have nothing to say

It's a handheld, why the fuck is this even an argument?

They literally quit the console game after the Wii U flopped.

its a handheld console

In what game can I heal you with my dick ?

handhelds are consoles

>gets btfo
I'm not the one spending hours making shitty bait for anonymous people that I'll never meet or change their ideas in the slightest.

It's a shitty handheld

if thats a bait then its a successful one because you are still here replying to me, it triggered you hard. now explain wheres the bait in this pic, because its 100% how it works, or do you call things like wikis or news a bait too?

yeah man, you won haha, I'm so mad right now

it should really be marketed as a handheld that has the option of also being a console and not the other way around.

When you call the Switch a console, it will automatically draw comparisons to the Xbone and PS4. specifically how weak the specs look compared to those consoles.

But when you market it as a handheld, suddenly it's the most powerful handheld available, that can double has a console thanks to a dock. Save for the Wii, the handheld market has kept Nintendop alive and kicking since the original Gameboy. they dominate the market. Even with the rise of mobile devices, the 3DS will hit 70 million lifetime sales by its end. The Switch is also heavily sought after as well. it's generating buzz that the Wii U could only dream about. It can't compete with any other home console do to its weak power and lack of exclusives. But as a handheld, the Switch is king.

its ok bro, i would also be mad if i bought switch

That thread was atrocious. Nintendofags were defending using a phone when it made no sense and then they say "oh dont forget the TV and the house"

Who would want to play their handheld on a tv? It sounds much better if it were the other way around.

It's marketed as a hybrid. Which it is. It's what got me to buy it.

Whoever says is a console is an idiot who doesn't own it, I love it b2it lets face it Nintendo got away with charging $60 to handheld games effectively killing off their home department on a stealthily way on the same move.

It's a powerful handheld with shit battery life that plays scaled back versions of console titles.

Very impressive tbph lads
