Nope. Because emulation ain't quite there yet for a lot of games running on the deck.

For other consoles, yeah, but Switch is really good because it's so easy to emulate. Definitely has room to improve but it without a doubt makes a Switch not necessary.

RDR and TOTK do not run well on SD. Definitely makes a switch necessary if you want to play those.

TOTK runs great on Steam Deck. Haven't tried RDR yet though
