I have a pretty good desktop computer and used to pass all my time there, in my office. But it was at the expense of my wife being mad for me not being with her.
It allow me to still play but also being present in the living room. And since i got the Steamdeck, i’m more playing Switch emulated game than i ever played on my Switch.
And most of all, now i can play local multiplayer game everytime i go to friends place. They never was gamer but now they always ask me to bring it.
It’s really the best piece of tech that i’ve purchased in a while. 100% worth it.

I’m mostly a cloud gaming guy, so a lot of the time I’m streaming from my computer or a TV, but sometimes I want to lay in bed or play on a road trip. It works great as a streaming machine too, but for when I don’t have internet, I fire up the local copies of the games.
- Couch multiplayer on the TV with my partner.
- Couch solo gaming, while hanging out with my partner, to stop myself being isolated awayiny computer room.
