Eh, really it's a cheap android tablet (sold at a markup) that has a built in slots for some gimmick Bluetooth controllers.

To those I've answered... I'm right though. Your switch isn't some magically engineered hardware from Nintendo. It's an underpowered android tablet. The only thing Nintendo brought was the joycons. And most games don't use the gimmicks of those controllers, because the pro controller exists and it's compatible with every non-gimmick game. And yes it's a cheap android tablet, it was criticized for being underpowered and using it of date hardware when it was new! Look at its hardware, look at the price. Look at say an Nvidia shield and look at its price.
