===Hybrid video game console=== Hybrid video game consoles are devices that can be used either as a handheld or as a home console. They have either a wired connection or [[docking station]] that connects the console unit to a television screen and fixed power source, and the potential to use a separate controller. However, they can also be used as a handheld. While prior handhelds like the [[Sega Nomad]] and [[PlayStation Portable]], or home consoles such as the [[Wii U]], have had these features, some consider the [[Nintendo Switch]] to be the first true hybrid console.<ref>{{cite web | url = https://www.museumofplay.org/about/icheg/video-game-history/timeline | title = Video Game History Timeline | publisher = Strong Museum of Play | access-date = August 16, 2020 | archive-date = September 6, 2021 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20210906173502/https://www.museumofplay.org/about/icheg/video-game-history/timeline | url-status = live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url = https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-retro-revisiting-sega-nomad-the-original-switch | title = DF Retro: Revisiting Sega's Nomad - the original Switch? | first = John | last = Linneman | date = May 13, 2018 | access-date = October 21, 2020 | work = [[Eurogamer]] | archive-date = July 9, 2019 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20190709124753/https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2018-retro-revisiting-sega-nomad-the-original-switch | url-status = live }}</ref>
