Can just get a steam deck. The emulators run great on it so far.
There's a pretty gigantic gap between a $150 device and a $400 device.
That is true, but given the option to save up for a steam deck if you can, the difference in performance and capabilities is also a pretty gigantic leap.
This thing is also pretty lightweight, while the Steam Deck is practically a boat anchor.
Yeah I’m genuinely surprised how ergonomics don’t seem to be a factor in recommendations I see for the Steam Deck.
I tried to bring my Deck out and about with me, but after a couple of weeks I went running back to my OLED Switch. The Deck is fine for sitting around the house but I find it pretty cumbersome otherwise.
