Banana has more votes than home console. Also, why isn't potato a choice? Is banana the new potato? Why was I not informed? Can we get about 10 more threads asking "hey guys do u consider switch a home console or portable?" I consider it a tablet with an hdmi out port. A gimped tablet that has no functionality other than to play games of course.

Maybe we should have a poll about what would be in this poll ;)

But i agree on your point, it's a tablet that has hdmi and play games and has a docking staion
Plenty of other tablets have docking stations to function as a laptop, but it's no laptop, it's a tablet with docking station
Same goes for the Switch, it's a tablet with a docking station and has a gamecart slot as extra.

A handheld with some console features.
Like the shape off the switch in handheld mode, like a PSP,GBA and the Gamegear.
And that I can play games on the big screen and in handheld mode, when my wife want to watch a boring tv program ;)
What I dis like all those motion control features, I only want to play games with the dpad and face buttons.
And what I also dis like that the Pro Controller (with a bad dpad) is a bit pricey.

But I want a switch, but I want for more good games and a better controller with a good dpad.

I don't feel so bad about the Pro Controller price (a bit pricey though), but the dpad on the procontroller makes me want to puke really.
Everything else is fine, specially the analogs in the Pro Controller are over the top quality.

Yeah i think putting the right controler under buttons just for multiplayer ( a feature that nearly no one will use and even the one who will use it will use it less than 1% of the time ) isn't worth it
Though i might hardmod it

Not sure if I already answered on this topic before but here goes.

The Switch for me is primarily a home console and then secondary, a handheld gaming system that I can take anywhere... Unlike the WiiU. :P

    @SylverReZ, the reasons i said that you deleting your pronouns page was sad is bc when i made my account i realized there was more info when you put "en" before the "pronouns" part in the url of the website and that meant i didnt see all the info on your page, and also bc i would have added you to my circle
