Yeah but the Steam Deck came like 5 years after I bought the Switch lol
Meanwhile I got a Gamesir G8 that I can use with my phone or tablet, and I can just remote to my PC or PS5 to play games.
Yes you are right but rumors say new switch release is coming and that's why Nintendo aggressively targetting emulators.
But steamdeck seem much better option
Emulators are like a hydra.
Go ahead and take one down. There's 100,000 still left to choose from, with a million more well on the way.
And the ones I've already got still work juuuuuust fine.
There were 2 viable switch emulators, Yuzu and Ryijinx. Nintendo has managed to stop development of both. Yes, you can still get them from other sources, but the original team that worked on the software is now fractured and threatened. Too bad for Nintendo that both Ryujinx and Yuzu were already good enough to play most games with minor issues on reasonable hardware.
Yeah, release groups are still packaging ryujinx with new switch games, it's just that good that it still works with games released after it went under.
