Comment on The Steam Deck's budget price tag is the reason I still rate it nearly two years on
ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 years agoWhy are you trying to compare a computer to a walled garden Nintendo switch? Hell, you’re making my argument for me.

I can’t believe I have to rehash this again. A Switch is a computer. My point wasn’t that it’s somehow better, but Nintendo already did exactly what you said: made a handheld portable computer with built-in screen that can play games locally and is sold at a loss only to recoup those losses with software sales.
The Deck can do more than the Switch, but that doesn’t make the Switch less of a computer.
