Do you plan to buy a Switch OLED model?

Guess you got yourself your next poll Rol: "Do you plan to buy a Steam Deck?"
I wonder if Valve were intentionally waiting for Nintendo to announce their rumored upgrade first.

I keep seeing articles up about how cheap it is or how much it pained Gabe to have such an attractive price point, but seriously? $400 for the basic model that can fit like two AAA games (max) on it? PC developers don't compress and optimize games like Nintendo does, that thing will barely fit any games on it without a beefy microsd card. Plus, acting like $400 is cheap (and that's the cheapest variation) when it can only play PC games is silly. Switch may be worse hardware overall, but it has a bigger screen, is also LCD (the ones out right now), functions the same way, and in addition to a thousands of third party games also has all of Nintendo's exclusives. 

Steam Deck is just an overpriced third-party-only Switch. Lamesauce.

Yeah your focus on the storage space is on point (likely to have external workarounds for that at some point), but the rest of your commentary?, not so much.

I think you've put way, way too much stock into Nintendo in all honesty, going by your comments on this thread so far. $400 is cheap compared to the new iphone or anything else higher, and it's a freaking mini PC that can be hooked up to a TV WITH the ability to hook up mouse/keyboard, the Switch only docks to your TV and doesn't support M+K or many other peripherals for that matter.

Also this ain't the thread for talking about piracy and trying to dictate how it's "robbing", when it's essentially just making a mere copy of the files (really, don't go down that road, because you will not hear the end of it, trust me, do not)).
