Being able to play anytime/anywhere for any length of time and the feeling of coziness that you get from being in your own gaming pod make handheld gaming particularly appealing.

As you note with Diablo 3, grindy RPGs are particularly great on handhelds.

Advantages of the Switch over smartphones include physical buttons and joysticks (though regular and Switch-style attached controllers are also available for phones), games that are largely untainted by intrusive "free to play" monetization schemes, and Nintendo's outstanding first-party game library.

Disadvantages are carrying and managing an extra (and somewhat bulky) device, more expensive games, and the lack of plausible deniability.
