You can limit the Steam Decks power to 3w (Much lower than the Switch, plus Steamdeck has a 20-25% larger battery) and get 5+ hours of Portal 2.

Plus... Unlike the Switch, you can also get 4+ hours of GTA 5. One of the best selling games of all time.

Because most people want to play gta5 on handheld for 4-5 hours.  Yea I'm not seeing it.

GTA V is currently on position 12 of the most played games on Steam Deck.

They released play time on steam deck awhile back finding most people just play indie games (hours played) on the steam deck and most are offered on the switch.

Have fun playing your indie games on PC revolution handheld.

The games mostly played on the Steam Deck are still a great mix of indie games, AA games and AAA games.... some of them also available on Switch but many of them not available on Switch.

Indie games like Elden Ring, Marvel's Spider-Man, No Man's Sky, Skyrim and Moster Hunter Rise?

For a Top10 this is is a good mix of indie games, AA games and AAA games.

The point of the article was the top 10 games are almost all available on the switch.  So why spend an extra 100+ dollars if you aren't going to play anything more demanding?

Let's face the facts.  Handhelds are for short term play.  That's why Sony could never grasp the market enough.  Sure they had the hit in PSP at the time but it still got its' ass spanked by the DS.  You know what most people I ran into that had PSP.  Well it can emulate SNES games or whatever.  I was like wow good job there playing pirated Nintendo software on your PSP.  Sure they had some good games on PSP but when Vita came out it was like Sony had its head up its ass.  Now they were telling you these are console experience games no pussy shit kiddy nintendo games yet they barely supported it and 3rd parties said fuck it.  I feel like I'm in deja vu because now I have valve lovers (I like steam don't get me wrong I have more games on there that I probably won't be able to even play fully) saying oh this time its different. 

Now the proof is in the damn pudding.  Handheld market is where most major companies think they understand yet they have no clue. 

Your "damn pudding" seems to be spoiled.

Here is the Top 100 of the most played games on Steam Deck:
