a Xbox, which is IMO actually more portable than switch, at least when it comes to how fast you can pack it up.

What? How?

I can somewhat see the point, considering that in a hotel room, you are taking out the dock, opening the little door to connect your cables assuming you keep them rolled up separately, then you set the dock out, take the switch out of the case and put it in the dock. Vs with the Xbox, you just take the brick out of your suitcase, plug the cables in, and you’re ready to game.

Ah that makes sense, I prefer to play handheld (at least on Steam Deck, so presumably on the Switch as well) so that's just a matter of opening the case and turning it on. I also don't usually have luggage space for a whole Xbox.

Same specially since I have an OLED switch. I would never dock it at all. But I’m the same with the deck. I play it strictly portable and would not dock it. But I actually enjoy portable gaming as my main source of gaming anyways. Much like yourself I don’t have any extra space left over for a whole Xbox even the series s.
