  • "Mouse mode"

    Yeah, the Steam Deck has that. Its called dual touchpads, and unlike the Switch 2 you can easily switch from analog stick to touchpad (they also have more functionality and are actually utilized to their full potential with desktop mode).

    • PCs literally had "mouse mode" gaming since the 80s. The Amiga/ATARI ST already had them, too.

      Consoles have been behind the times for decades.

  • Nintendo games never come down in price either.

    BotW is still going for what it did on day one. Even second hand copies go for nearly that.

    Although it does mean you can basically rent them for as long as you want for a few dollars if you sell it again afterwards...

  • Whenever there's a multiplatform game I'm interested in I add it to my wishlist on the Switch, PS5 and Deck. I almost always end up buying it off Steam because it ends up being cheaper on it. So the Switch and PS5 have been reduced for exclusives only.

  • Hell, at least I can use my steam deck as a mini PC and SSH into the thing, as well as use a mouse and full fuckin keyboard with my cheap off brand dock.

  • Eh, with the prices you could upgrade from steam deck to better specs, maybe switch will have better battery

  • I think the last Nintendo game I payed for was animal crossing new horizons. Yea, I'll be alright with my back catalog and the occasional indie game that costs less than 20$. All I wanted was another punch-out but I played the "Big Boy Boxing" demo and it was pretty fun, so I will not be buying a switch 2 any time soon if at all.
