Is the Nintendo Switch a Console, Handheld or Both?

[ciderPunk1877]

1. Why does it matter? People like it.

2. Handhelds ARE consoles. (All handhelds are consoles, not all consoles are handheld).

What do you mean, why does it matter? Does something mattering offend you? I think you just answered your own question: because people like it.

The Sega Nomad already did it, whatever it is!

I'm of the opinion that it boils down to size. A true handheld should be able to fit in your pocket, but that could easily just be because I'm old enough to be used to handhelds being that small.
