I?m sure I will do both but I will probably mostly do docked! I like the feel of the pro controller and playing on a large screen!
 
I usually play handheld because my boyfriend likes to use the TV with his switch and we usually buy new games at the same time so he gets the TV. Plus, Animal Crossing has always been better for me as a portable game (even though I know the switch has the opportunity to do both). I like being able to go lay in bed or sit outside on the patio on a nice day and play Animal Crossing. Wild World and New Leaf let me do that, whereas I didn't play much of City Folk because I had to be in the living room, usually when my dad was trying to watch football or something x)
 
i've played mostly docked for all other switch games just because the quality is better. animal crossing is quite a different game though, so i imagine i'll be playing it both docked and handheld quite a lot
 
I'm not sure. :) This will be my first switch (preorder supposed to be coming friday). So, I imagine I'll try it both ways and see.
 
I never game anywhere besides my living room and I have a new 4K 75" TV I bought with my PS4 Pro last year. I'm a little disappointed the Switch doesn't have 4K capabilities but I'm sure it will still look amazing on the TV regardless.

Well my switch has scratches on it and my couch is too far away from my tiny tv. So I?ll be playing both miserably.
 
Only ever docked (unless maybe I take the Switch on holiday or something like that). If fact, I feel for people that play handheld only as they aren't seeing the game at it's best and are pretty much negating all that extra detail in the game.
 
i purchased the switch lite because i’m only interested in handheld play :p
 
I chose other because I would prefer to do them equally, but I have a projector instead of a tv and it?s picture is only good at night... sooo I do handheld during the day and TV at night!

-Although a trip to target for some good quality blackout curtains might help... hmm
 
There wasn't an option for handheld only, so I voted for 'other'.
 
Docked. I've never used my Switch as a handheld haha. My eyesight is poor and it's a lot easier to see/read on a bigger screen.
 
I've always felt that handheld mode lacks the immersion of a big screen and decent audio setup. I think audio/visuals are going to play a bigger part in that immersive experience in NH, so playing it the best possible way you can is a big deal for me.

Of course, not everybody has easy access to a TV so it's nice that a second option is there.
 
Mostly docked at my computer desk.

Mine will mostly be docked as I want to play on a big screen. I may take it to work to play handheld though, I am still debating on it.
 
I'll mostly play in handheld mode because I'm a bit shortsighted. I will play it on the TV sometimes though because I really want to see it on the big screen, especially with these new graphics. Plus my mom wants to see me play it sometimes haha.
 
Mostly handheld b/c I'll probably be playing mainly in the evening while DH watches his shows. I often go off by myself when he does, but this way I can be with him and play at the same time. I will play on the TV some, especially if DH is out for the evening or out of town.
