There's no reason to pit the SteamDeck and NintendoSwitch against one another; they're soulmates.
Ever since the Steam Deck was but a wee rumor, it’s been inseparable from the Nintendo Switch. It was initially hailed as a “Switch killer” well before it was announced and that distinction only heated up when Valve revealed the device’s impressive specs. Now that it’s finally getting into more players’ hands — and with Valve promising to ramp up production — Steam Deck vs. Nintendo Switch debates are reaching a fever pitch.
How I use my Steam Deck When I first got my Steam Deck, I wasn’t sure how it would fit into my gaming rotation. At that point, my habits were pretty set in stone. I played consoles at home and used my Switch exclusively in handheld mode. Since both my home and on-the-go niches were filled, it just felt like I’d acquired another big gaming device I’d hardly use.
While it’s more of an indie and retro machine than anything else for me, it’s comforting to know I could run more powerful games on it if I needed to. I struggled to get Elden Ring running on my PC, but I can boot it up on my Steam Deck just fine. It’s not the way I want to play that game and I’d choose console over portable any day for it, but I don’t feel like I’m totally locked out of any game anymore, even ones that are PC exclusive.
How I use my Nintendo Switch While I use my Steam Deck a lot these days, it hasn’t replaced my Nintendo Switch OLED. I still find that Nintendo’s hybrid console functions better as a portable. A lot of that comes down to its ingenious design, which doesn’t get as much credit as it deserves. When I’m at home, I love that I can pop open its kickstand, undock the joy-cons, and set it down on a table when my wrists start getting tired.
There are also specific types of games that I just would rather play on a Switch. If I plan on playing a long RPG, one which I’ll mostly be tackling portably, I want my Switch. I’m not going to spend 90 hours playing Persona 5 on a console that starts to strain my wrists after 90 minutes. I’m still excited when I see games like Nier Automata coming to Switch. Even if I can already play them on Steam Deck, I don’t really want to play them there.
