I despise Nintendo for being so cheap with this new model. A nicer screen? What use is that when docked? Only decent thing is a LAN port to avoid the shitty wireless internet. Either way, I never owned a Nintendo Switch because I had no money until recently.
Steam Deck is like the Nintendo Switch PRO that everybody wanted. I have a good inclination to get it instead.
Pros:
-Emulation (including Switch games)
-Powerful for its price, especially considering the cost of graphics cards right now
-Very mobile, to bring elsewhere, and there will be a dock for it
Cons:
-Unknown how good it will truly be until people start using it
-Difficult to acquire one for awhile
On the other hand, with the Nintendo Switch OLED...
Pros:
-All 1st party Nintendo games (the only reason to buy it) will run flawlessly
-Online play will function
Cons:
-More expensive in the long run (expensive games)
-More restrictive (difficult to hack, and will not be nearly as powerful at emulation)
