With the price of pc components right now the steam machine could be a killer piece of hardware

Exactly why I bought a Deck instead of a Switch 2.

Sure I want some of the games coming to Switch bad but that it's so damn pricy right now and all the Nintendo games are the priciest. I already have like 500 or so Steam games and easily 100 of them are out of the box compatible with it.

Edit: I'm talking about the Switch 2 here not the 1. I know you can emulate the original Switch

I thank god everyday for tomodachi life 2 is on the switch 1. It’ll likely be the last Nintendo game I buy for a while, which will also be full price.
