  For comparison, the Switch has somewhere between 5,000 and 11,000 games.

  Source: Wikipedia lists about 5000, Nintendo says “over 5000”, but this website claims 10,880. It’s possible that the final website lists multiple versions of games, or is maybe just filled up with shovelware that the other two don’t consider worth counting.

  I’m not normally a big fan of “I told you so” but I wish I could roll back to some ancient forum posts from the early days of Proton and SteamOS and tell some of the surprisingly aggressive naysayers that seemed to crop up in every discussion of them back then to have a look at this.

    Some dude on Reddit said after the Steam Deck announcement, that within six months there would be $500 gaming laptops that would make the deck obsolete. Still waiting for those.

      People LOVE to shit on Linux gaming, and for some of those people it seems to have really offended them when it started to get better. I hope I live long enough to get to the point of “Why are you carrying all that overhead by running Windows for gaming??” to be the standard trolly comment, instead of “Linux is no good if you want to game!” as it is today.

      I have no doubt that we will reach this point unless PC Gaming as a category evaporates in the meantime.
