Why would you buy a steamdeck when the switch 2 is coming out?
Why would you buy a steamdeck when the switch 2 is coming out?
PC gaym
Why should I buy either?
Weird how this board is trying to force this deck vs switch shit when they have completely different libraries and the Deck is definitively better in every way.
Steam Deck performs better.
steam deck will have game sales, jewtendo will not.
It's not better "in every way". Name these "ways"
To play games.
You can buy both.
Switch 2 for exclusive games and Steamdeck for pc games.
Anon did you not get the memo? Switch 2 performance is shit so we're supposed to pretend that hardware and specs never mattered and how it's always been about the games.
I was a little concerned about the resolution, but actually using it, the steamdeck pixel density is fine. I'm not a glasses wearing eyelet either.
Seriously, You cant even play a major amount of your game on SD.
What’s even the point of comparison
Steamdeck seems like such a massive waste. I can't really imagine a situation where I'd want to play a game on it for an hour or two. If I am on the bus or train I can just use my phone during that time. If I am traveling then I'd rather just have a halfway decent laptop that I can use a controller or mouse with.
With the Switch 2 at the very least it is a Nintendo console and gets Nintendo exclusives that you can't play anywhere else bar emulation which we don't know if you'll be able to do with the Switch 2. I also hardly count emulation, to be totally honest. I am talking about both products out of the box. Switch 2 has exclusives. Steam Deck has shit I can play on a laptop.
1050ti
snapdragon 8
these are literally years-old laptop and mobile parts the Switch 2 is earnestly competing against. how many other tests have been done, is it really this bad?
I don't want to pay for updates for games I already have.
screen size doesn't matter
no exclusives doesn't matter
the loud fans doesn't matter
the unremovable sides doesn't matter
no proper dock doesn't matter
the lower battery life doesn't matter
NOTHING MATTERS
Lmao yoy steamies are steaming from wasting money on dogshit
Don't worry, you'll get 30 fps upscaled from 540p on the switch 2.
You don’t have to, it optional, poorfag :)
Because the switch 2 will be amazing.
That's simply not true. Take ur meds, lil chud die.
Looks like shit compared to the steamdeck 2 resolution wtf?
which handheld device for underaged school children is your favorite?
i'm over the age of 18 and dont use public transportation - why would i purchase either of these toys for babies? if i were forced to answer, it seems obvious to me that the steam one will have more games and better games in general, but to be perfectly clear - owning either of these makes you a definitive manbaby.
store.steampowered.com
Read the fucking line
DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR'S CUT UPGRADE
10 BUCKS
You pc fats were already fucking doing that before switch 2 released
'ick on 'witch just doesn't have the same ring to it
switch has nintendo games
steamdeck only has roguelike indieslop
Ok lets see what new games pc has
nothing
wooww
should the deck 2 drop the 16:10 screen and go for a regular 1080p resolution?
Why buy the Switch 2 when you can wait for the Deck 2? PC will obviously be around as a way to play games longer than Nintendo will be, no one in the 360 era thought Microsoft would be dead 2 gens later. Same with Sega during the Genesis days or Atari during their heyday. Life comes at you fast, Sony or Nintendo could be 2 generations away from dying at any time but PC is eternal. There will always be a new storefront since it's not locked down.
And jewtendo will have all the best games ever of that generation.
It's literally a PC that you can use like you would your desktop.
your own Steam library
the whole GOG library
anything else you can get to run on it
emulators
Desktop functionality
mods
no online subscription
no overpriced external memory needed
able to use any controller or keyboard/mouse instead of needing to pay $90 for joycons
For the price and what you can do with it, it's far and away more capable than a S2
I know you're retarded, but do you not understand the difference between having the option to purchase a DLC and Nintendo releasing an entire game a few years later at only a slightly less pathetic resolution and framerate and asking for you to pay anything for it?
This
I sold both my Steam Deck and Switch Oled to buy the Switch 2.
Because it's a different product with different uses? I'm never going to be able to play my PC library on a Switch 2 for example.
and jewtendo will have all the same games as last gen at higher price
ftfy
Why would you buy a steamdeck
lol i was never buying one. It's retarded specially since I already have a great PC
Steam deck is better and plays all of the switch games.
handheld gaming
lol
for a tendie
steam deck has 20 years worth of games lol
I'm playing Metroid Prime Remastered on my desktop right now. Do you know how easy it is to emulate Nintendo games?
Which switch 2 games are just like switch 1 games?
it's a redundant device made for retarded valve fanboys. if you already have a PC there's no reason to have a steam deck
All my pc games work on a deck, ally, legion go, etc.
None of them would work on a switch 2.
Simple as.
handhelds
Why would you buy a Switch 2 when PCs exist? It's not like you can play games while driving. You do drive, don't you? You're not riding in a child seat in the back or riding the bus, right?
normie who hates fun
Sir, I want to play new games
test
Are you insinuating the Switch 2 will be anything but a port machine?
>the unremovable sides doesn't matter
is the only one correct one id say Nintendo do have exclusives but nothing has exclusives when emulators exists and the switch 2? yeah you've got a epic games agreement tops.
Steamdeck actually has games.
This test is complete bullshit btw. I hope this clown gets sued by Nintendo for this shit
Which games?
Does Steam Link work with it so you can play games rendered by real hardware in the other room?
All of them, including switch games.
Literally all of steam and anything else you can put on it to include Switch games. Do things just not exist if you can't pick it on a Netflix style UI or something?
I got the oled for 350.
screen size doesn't matter
Screen size and resolution is good though. 1080p could be better, but I have not felt slighted by it.
no exclusives doesn't matter
Bait
the loud fans doesn't matter
Idk, i don't think it's loud.
the unremovable sides doesn't matter
Is... is this a thing people complain about? No joycon-like removable controllers? It's kinda neat on the switch, but i've only used that functionality in non-docked mode once while waiting around for a while with a second person in public.
no proper dock doesn't matter
I use it as a bed/couch/travel handheld, my usecase didn't need a dock.
the lower battery life doesn't matter
2.5 hours when running it on full blast is kinda lame, but if I play weaker stuff I get 7 hours easily, which has not been an issue.
However, losing 10%if I keep it on sleep mode for a while is very annoying.
NOTHING MATTERS
these are just verified, thousands more games are considered "playable" but you might have to open the on screen keyboard to enter text into a textbox or adjust some settings on first startup, which removes them from the verified list
Bull. Shit.
Already saw games running on switch 2 vs -eck, if it runs them better, then it must be stronger.
STEAM DECK
can emulate all my games from my child hood GEN 4 5 6
Nintendo Switch 2
playing and paying for nintendshit
if you already have a landline there's no reason to have a cell phone
switch 2's library is tiny compared to steam deck
Steamdeck also has Nintendo games AND for free. The only thing you need is to not be a caveman.
Shit, I'm sure it will even have free Switch 2 games just a couple of months after release lmao.
11000+ games is "tiny"?
Because I don't support Jewtendo, their greedy ass business practices, nor their horrendously unnecessary war on game piracy.
I have both
Nintendo would never overcharge me for old and outdated hardware
lol
the switch 2 can run switch games and switch 2 games that isnt even close to 11000+
Compared to PC? He's right. It basically plays the entirety of video game history, nothing else can compete with PC in terms of catalog. It's like comparing a big lake to an ocean.
I hope not. Why would I want a smaller screen in a less convenient form factor? 1920x1200 maybe, but that'd shit all over the battery life. Then again so would 1080p.
Have you seen the amount of Switch 1 games bud?
yes according to wikipedia its a little under 5500
keeping the exact same resolution would be beyond stupid
you're right, the deck is outdated so you shouldn't buy it
but why would you buy a switch 2 when it's going to get emulated year one and have its sole purpose completely eradicated if you have the bare minimum tech literacy?
Because 800p supersampled from 1600p looks better than 1080p upscaled from 480p.
y-yeah but steam has WAY more games!!
half of the games are AI generated hentai puzzle games or 5000 achievement farming games
Lol. Lmao even.
nintendo has games!!
they're all copypasted platformers and party games for kids
I'm not supporting Nintendo, simple as
Meanwhile on Nintendo eShop...
Because you're an adhd zoomer who's never played good games before
You think this guy will kill himself once Switch 2 sales plummet after the scalping period?
simulated
they won't plummet
that's assuming nintendo cultists are reasonable people
I'll buy a second portal before I buy either
get a switch
play animal crossing for a few hours
happy and easy
get a steamdeck
download one of the dozen early access 0.1alpha version animal crossing copycat
game crashes, ends after chapter 1 and has no lasting appeal
go jump through a thousand ropes to download an emulator and a ROM to play the real animal crossing
get arrested by based trump and raped in alcatraz for piracy
see most normie customers, who are the one's who actually buy portable gaming consoles will choose the switch
tranimal crossing
This is actually what I'm on the fence about.
Was suddenly leaning towards a Deck but I think I might end up getting annoyed with how much I have to fiddle with it. I plan on playing docked for the majority of the time unless that 7.4" OLED screen makes me finally able to play handheld again without wishing I had a bigger screen. Feeling I might as well just get a gaming laptop.
If you see ANYONE out in public with a shitch poo, slit their fucking throat. They'll get the message soon enough
Basically what I've gathered from these threads is that Steam Deck owners are going through insane buyer's remorse
run one executable and places roms in specific folder
1000 hoops
Asking the real questions here. Imagine being such a bibeo gaem addicted dopamine zombie that you cannot leave your house without your bing bing wahoo
Nobody cares about your piece of shit console Reggie, all will be pirated and emulated on PC in the matter of months
about 5300 of those games are slopware made in ms paint tho
There's only so many cultists and normies don't want it. This is the wii u 2.
that's odd to state given that deck is still a tiny computer that can do other things while switch can be entirely supplanted and surpassed by emulation
i don't even care about either but if i wanted to play nintendo games it'd cost me $0 and i'd get an experience better than you can dream of
Get a Switch 2
Put in game card
! You cannot play this game without downloading it first
! You cannot play online without a Nintendo Gold account
We-well at least it's portable!
Battery dies in two hours
tranimal crossdressing
BASED
emulators
retro games
most pc games before 2020 work
Come on bro
It'll sell even worse actually
doing anything more involved than pressing a single button to start something is too hard for me
Most people would better serve society and civilization as a whole as lubricant for machines.
It has already sold better.
have you guys ever been around normalfags?
it'll obviously sell well, they bitch and whine but in the end they're the main victims of fomo
normalfags waste their money impulsively on the shittiest things possible
Jannies this man is delusional
But you're literally doing it too by saying that and you faggots act like the deck is the only umpc. It's old buddy. It's dated. Valve never ever a deck 2 fucking cry about it. A faggot bing bing wahoo 2 will beat your retarded arch Linux autism fidget spinner.
People have been saying this since at least the ps2 after it smoked the competition despite being the weakest hardware of its gen. Come on, nigga.
simulated
because ick on eck
Because you can play truxton on it.
You can't play truxton on the switch 2, it has no blast processing.
I'm not interested in buying another underpowered port machine. Especially not one for $450.
It is pretty good, specially considering it can use DLSS to leap over the deck.
However, it still can't play truxton, so the deck still wins.
A faggot bing bing wahoo 2 will beat your retarded arch Linux autism fidget spinner.
normalfags waste their money impulsively on the shittiest things possible
truest shit ever. i have a normalfag friend and cluttered around his room you will find:
a punching bag
three 3D printers
a compound bow
a "rip-stick" skateboard
a dust-covered switch that's never been used
a giant painting of a pokemon
two beebee rifles
a snowboard
an arcade box (unplugged)
three extra TVs (unplugged)
he doesn't use ANY of it. not just lately, but i mean NEVER HAS. he's very overweight and doesn't leave home so all of the boards and outdoor equipment are like statues or trophies. it's insane. he just sees something cool and compulsively buys with no real plan to use it in the future.
you faggots act like the deck is the only umpc.
It effectively is. Only price:performance ratio that makes any sense, best efficiency at lower wattages still, only aptly priced UMPC with two touchpads. The other UMPCs don't exist to anyone not retarded.
sharty basedquoting after the hack
do you really want to earn a ban that badly
Is this how you've been coping with your well deserved dox? lmao
your chan fucking sucks
Unlike the site with a bestiality board. And I'm not referring to Anon Babble.
Reggie hasn't worked at nintendo for like a decade
keep crying bitch nigga hahahaaaa go back to your dead website
Cause it literally has a 7 year old gpu
Apparently when you lock the fps to 30 and 720 p games run smooth, who knew?
That sounds dreadful until you remember moore's law is dead and you have to pay more if you want more performance.
bing bing wahoo
Splatoon
Shitch has no games
that's what a laptop or desktop computer is for.
pc games are for keyboard+mouse, not for handhelds.
switch actually has exclusive games that were made specifically for it.
performs better at what?
steam deck is a 5 year old laptop chip, there are stronger pc handhelds than a steamdeck, there are stronger laptops available for cheaper.
nintendo switch actually has exclusive games available to no other platform.
Why does it need to have more resolution? Maybe I am too old to understand since I'm not one of those people who facetanks portable devices. What exactly is the reason and advantage to holding a portable device a few millimeters from your face? I can't imagine it being comfortable to hold it that close to your face.
Wait, my non-gaming AMD laptop is more powerful than Switch 2?
LMAO
Why do nincels on twitter boast so much about dlss? That shit makes games look atrocious on pc so why does switch 2 having it make it a good thing
It has an overall better library, thanks to having the best versions of multiplats.
it's better when your screen is tiny and shitty and you're using their pathetic controllers that can only rotate the camera in predictable directions
ITT: Tendies try to pretend that PC has no exclusives
mostly spreadsheet simulator type games, but who gives a shit
the point of playing on pc is mods, high performance and freedom
a game asking you to think is bad
games should all be mindless walking sims
Why would I buy either?
spreadsheet
The number of unique indies on Steam and Itch mogs the fuck out of Nintendo eShop.
I don't think that any consoles can run my porn games
Steamdeck has games.
Tendies only recently started to act like hardware and specs matter so they bring it up as points when talking about the Switch 2. They don't quite understand what it is, they just know to bring it up when talking about performance.
Why would you buy a switch 2?
It's nvidia proprietary shit so no other console has it, that makes it better because it's exclusive. It's also "AI" so stocks go up.
The whole thing that makes the Steam Deck work is that it is not using a chip meant for a Windows Laptop. It is lower TDP and put together in a way that doesn't work well for Windows.
The Deck's custom RDNA2 SoC chip is also the same generation as the Switch 2's Orin which was announced 7 years ago.
there are stronger pc handhelds than a steamdeck
At higher price points. Lenovo's SteamOS handhelds that will get the closest are going to be $599 to $829. Windows handhelds are going to be even worse price/performance.
there are stronger laptops available for cheaper.
Not really. Even now you will have a very hard time finding a new $399 Windows laptop with better hardware for gaming. Windows 11 needs more CPU power and RAM for the same tasks, and that usually comes at the cost of a weaker GPU with less memory available to it.
What if I have no interest in playing mario or zelda?
Super Switch won
I want to play games for adults.
Then play pool or poker or golf.
I want to play porn h games like Corruption of Champions.
Kill yourself, you tranny gooner nigger.
Video games are for fun to to jack off to them. Porn has rotten your brain.

games for adults
Nintendie sisters? How is mario not adult? Let's defend Mario's honor.
Just say that you want hardcore fetish porn with a slight hint of "gameplay" attached to it like Corruption of Champions instead of proper video games like Mario.
guys pls play this game on crazygames
I want to play games for adults
YOU JUST WANT TO PLAY HARDCORE FETISH GAMES TO JACK OFF DON'T YOU? YOU WANT TO PUNISH YOUR THROBBING COCK! YOU CAN'T WAIT TO WHACK IT TO SOME CORRUPTION, CAN'T YOU
Fucks sake anon, get help
steam deck has games
proper games like mario
Anon....those games are specificly for kids
unlike my games which were made for teens!!!! Yes im 30+ years old
But Mario is a real game unlike your Corruption of Champions Karryn's Prison "adult game" hentai goon slop.
Steam deck is for autists though only autists i know buy them.
what is docked?
Remember the last Mario? Yeah, me neither.
Honestly, I probably would buy a Switch 2 if I could link my Steam account and play all the indie and smaller AA games I like without having to buy them again, but I can't, so I'll stick to my SD.
Wasn't that... ahm... umm... wasn't that... Super Mario Bros Wonder, right? Right?
The one with the drugged up levels!
Fuck, wouldn't that be like super Mario jamboree? Its all the same practically
