The alternatives might be a bit more obscure but anyone already playing games through steam should know about the deck

I would be surprised as the data does point to a massive gap between the sales of the 2 units.
As of September 30, 2024 146.04 million Nintendo Switch units have been sold.
The number of sales for the steam deck seem to be a little bit vague, it’s probably at 3 million or maybe 4?
I also believe it was only released here in Australia officially 2 months ago and only available in key countries.
The average person isn’t really looking at a Steam Deck if you ask me, it’s more of a niche product.
But they can both exist and cater to their respective audiences and demographics.
