The best thing about a Steam Deck is the fact that with Emudeck, you can make your deck a much better Switch. The only thing you'll be missing is lack of Internet features and the GUI.

I'm also always happy to try and convince anyone and everyone not to buy from Sintendo and buy hardware that isn't inferior because I swear Sintendo hardware has absolutely been inferior compared to the competition since at at least n64.

You talk about convincing people into emulation, but can you even do that on moderated websites? I mean, helping them get ROMs without going into “wink wink nudge nudge” communication or risking Nintendo’s lawyers invading that site.

Speaking plainly, I still buy games and hardware the normal way because I don’t want that complication. It’s not worth the effort and hassle just to risk putting viruses on my computer.
