As you can see straight from the console its self comes 2 detachable controllers which you can essentially use on one console, but lets say you’re at a party and want to invite friends to play the latest Super Mario game or Mario Kart or Splatoon. With previous handhelds like the 3DS or Playstation Vita you would have need 2 consoles in order to do this. With the Nintendo Switch, you can do it with one.
