Forums - Gaming Discussion - Does the Steam Deck REALLY Destroy the Switch?

Hyperbole: people using words that are dramatic to make a point. But sometimes, certain things can be so one-sided that there's a clear winner. Does the Steam Deck actually destroy the Nintendo Switch, though?

No written version, it's another one of those show-and-tell type things!... Which includes a key snippet of voice chat gameplay right off the Steam Deck without a headset!

Who are you ?



In hardware power yes. In hardware sales no.



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

Ugh.



Name a gaming handheld that outsold a Nintendo handheld and that's the answer.

The Steam Decks hardware absolutely decimates the 7 year old Tegra chip in every single way.

As expected.

Didn't watch the video nor do plan too. Software matters, not hardware.



It's probably the best handheld for emulation in the market by far, but other than that, this is a very niche product.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Nope. It barely managed to sell 300k, as they are not even bragging for sales for the system by now. Specs wise, definitely.

Weight, heat and battery life suck on x86.

It might get a second life as a cheap portable mini pc in the future.
