Question from milhouseVH

Asked: 5 months ago
Is there an official "name" for playing on the Gamepad and not the TV?

It's tricky to search for the concept, if you want to find out whether a certain game supports it. Off-TV play, Gamepad-only play, portable play, etc.

Do Nintendo officially refer to it by any specific name?

So far, in all communication and their website - they simply call it
"Play on just the GamePad"

So, I guess the answer to your question is: No.
