Comment on Steamdeck or....

I love the steam deck. I haven’t used my switch for anything other than family Mario kart since I got it. I really like having access to PC games, especially at steam sale prices, which makes the deck a lot cheaper in the long run vs Nintendo games that never go on sale. Even Pokémon games that are years old are still full price when they’re 2 or 3 releases behind in the series.
The only thing I prefer about the switch is physical cartridges. The deck wins in every other category for me.

As someone with a primarily physical Switch library and more than 100 Switch games, the Switch cartridges aren’t even satisfying to put in and harder to store or display than consoles of old.
Even the 3DS just feels easier and more substantial. So, despite the Deck’s lack of a cartridge slot, I don’t even think the Deck really loses.

That’s a good point. Also with it being a PC, you can keep a library of DRM free games on an sd card or something and kind of get the same thing. Limited on what games you can do this with officially though. DRM is the worst
