    PLEASE give the Steam Deck a try if you haven’t yet and are thinking about a Switch 2.

    I’m definitely* going to purchase a Steam Deck (OLED) very soon. I know it’s a couple of years old but the amount of games being able to play and games being often on sale. Not to forget the Steam Deck (OLED) can emulate a lot of games and also play 🏴‍☠️ games on it.

    I thought about the Switch 2 but the console is already expensive and then the games being each €70, €10 game update and DLCs being €10-30 each is insane. Though, I do realize that it’s probably similar on other consoles (PS5 and Xbox). Might be just spoiled being a PC gamer?

      Yep my wife and I got OLEDs a month back. It feels modern - plays most of the latest games. Not that everything needs to be Monster Hunter Wilds (which we have nice gaming PCs for).

      It’s honestly been a long time since hardware has wowed me, but us playing Borderlands 2 all the way through on the couch for $5 bucks was something I’ll never forget. It felt like the way the game was meant to be played despite releasing for PCs and Consoles.
