The Nintendo Switch has 3 modes. Home Console mode where it can be played on a television. Handheld mode where it can be played without a TV, and table top mode, where the console is set up on a table top with the built in kickstand and played with a friend on the go.

They can be treated like a traditional controller. a wiimote style controller, or they can be split into two and used as separate controllers with a friend. In handheld mode, the joycons attach to each side on the tablet, allowing it to become a more traditional handheld.
