You’re talking like everyone owns a steam deck od Rog Ally, or should just buy one of those instead? Well for starters, the SD doesn’t play switch games all really well. Frame rate and stuttering issues and not all games work.
Secondly; and the bigger thing is that the SD is far and away the most popular pc handheld. It’s estimated to have sold around 4 to 6 million units so far. I love mine. It’s awesome. Switch has currently sold 132 million units. It’s the most sold system in the world. More than any xbox, ps4, or ps5.
You’re talking like the Mig isn’t for people who already own a switch. You’re also in some weird edgelord mindset where you think mostly just kids own a switch? Nintendo releases the age demographics of switch users, since you enter in your birthday on your profile. Every age between 18 and 45 is higher than any age under 17. Most people with a switch aren’t 12. They’re 25.
I have been gaming since my parents bought me an Atari 2600 for Xmas in 1980-whaterver. I got a Switch for my 50th bday and it is a great console. Love it.
I will prob never buy a Steam Deck or equivalent though as they are costly and (IMHO) inferior to what I could get in a gaming laptop for similar money.
I have a gaming laptop and yes, you can get a gaming laptop for the same $600-$700 that will perform better than the steam deck, but I seldom used my gaming laptop, between the size, needing a controller or mouse (hate gaming with a laptop trackpad) booting up, needing to save the game yadda yadda yadda and finding a spot to set the laptop, the deck is just loads quicker and more convenient to play. I’ve probably played more games on my deck over the last year than the previous 3 years on my desktop or laptop combined. Between kids/family and work I just don’t have many large time chunks that I would dedicate to gaming. The Steam deck I can pick up and be playing 30 seconds later, then put it back into hibernation just as quick, where it loses around 5% battery a day, so I hardly ever shut it fully off.
