When used as an in-home console, the Switch’s tablet rests in a dock and operates just like any other system. You have a standard controller, sans touch screen, and play games on your television.
When you’re ready to roll, you pop off the left and right sides of the controller, which both have a single joystick and a series of buttons, and slide them onto the tablet. Remove the tablet from its dock and you’re off. You can even detach the controller pieces from the tablet, pull out its kickstand and let two people use the controller sections to play 1-on-1 games.
The idea is incredibly risky, but Nintendo is known for taking risks with its hardware. Just look at the Wii U’s touch screen controller, the Wii’s motion controls and the DS’s dual touch screen interface.
