I play mine 99% handheld but even I wouldn't buy a Lite because the hybrid thing is still a major selling point even when you consider tabletop mode. 

@DoctaMarioThe worse thing is, he literally is suggesting that Nintendo drop the Switch's key selling point. Plus if he actually looked at the sales ratio of the Switch, unlike the PS4 and Xbox One, the higher priced SKU outsells the cheaper one by a significant amount. There are people that won't buy a Switch Lite. On the flip side, people that are interested in the Switch Lite will pickup the standard model if they get a good deal or can't find a Lite. He's assessment is so stupid that it's incomprehensible that someone paid to for analysis could come up with it.
 
Side Note: In Japan, the market that prefers portability the standard Switch outsells the Switch Light every week. The only time it didn't was because a shortage of the standard SKU. The Switch outsold the Switch Lite in Japan by a ration of 3 to 1 last week. That's in the market where portable is king. Every time Pachter cashes his pay check he's stealing money.

Based on that quote, Id have to stay this guy is on some DSP levels of bullshit. How do you legit not understand a console that lets you play the same games in several different settings? 
 
And nintendo has always just done their own thing which is something I appreciate about them. I love my PlayStation stuff, it's amazing gear, but it's an upgraded version of the same thing most of the time. You never know what Nintendo is going to come up with and that's part of what's so great about them. 

@DoctaMarioTLDR Pachter is a fucking dumb ass. I mean he's had some shit takes over the years but this one takes the cake. 

I use it for both.  It's extremely convenient at especially if my wife happens to be watching something that I just don't care about or being able to continue my outside on the go.  I like having the option of both taking the option away from those who use it for both is dumb.

Pachter's quote in question
 
"I don’t really understand the whole hybrid concept... I don’t think most people play it in both modes, I would say that maybe 20% of Switch owners play both modes; and I think most Switch owners play it handheld only. So I honestly don’t understand the whole point of the hybrid. Who cares? Play it as a handheld."
 
"And Nintendo isn’t that smart," he continues, "so you never know what they will do next, but I think the smart thing would be to get rid of the Switch console and only have the Switch Lite, get rid of the docking station, get rid of playing on the TV; maybe offer a Fire Stick style dongle for those who do want to play it on the TV."

Have you ever asked yourself,"Just how broken was Street Fighter the movie the arcade game"?  Well, here's your answer.
 
 
Super mega fuckety fucks.

I hadn't even fully watched this vid and I still haven't at the time of typing this...but I got to the quote from him and the very first sentence of it...made me lose IQ points.  'I don't really understand the whole hybrid concept'.  .....Why?  I can't wrap my head around the whole concept of Pachter not understanding the concept.   Who the fuck says something like this with this console dominating  the charts for the past 22 months?  I can't....I just can't compute.
 
Edit:  Holy hell there's a 2nd part to his quote?  and what a fucking doozy start for this second paragraph  'And Nintendo isn't that smart'.  What the fuck am I listening to right now?  Yeah Nintendo makes some dumb ass shit decisions some times (case in point the whole Fire Emblem 20th anniversary digital limited release....smh)  but this company has been making money hand over fist with this system SINCE RELEASE.  It might not stay that way when the new consoles come out but people have been clearly digging what this system is and even more so during the pandemic.  Has Patchter just given up on even attempting to be taken seriously?  I feel like he's given up on anyone attempting to take him seriously now.
