I've gone from PC to Xbox 360 to Nintendo Switch and very excited about the recent addition of a Steam Deck. Curious what y'all gaming on?

If we are talking strictly console, then the xbox360 is my all time favorite console and preferred console, especially since my absolute favorite controller goes to them as well.

Otherwise, PC is just more convenient for the fact I can use a 3rd party 360 controller and play console games via dedicated emulators or RetroArch cores.

I have a few other consoles, but my desktop and 360 are most definitely my picks for what I'd use if given the choice.

If I had a hacked switch and my computer had better specs to run pokemon violet at even close to 30 frames per second, you bet I'd just back up my games onto my desktop and play them on it using my 3rd party 360 controller.
