I’ve been really wanting to get a steamdeck. I’ve been playing a lot on my modded switch, but there is a lot I want to play that is not available on the switch.

Does anyone have both systems and still use the switch?

I imagine I can just dump my games and emulate them on the Steamdeck.

I don’t do anything online, so I can’t imagine I’ll miss out on anything.

Im an experienced Linux gamer, so im not worried about the Linux side of things.

I think I’ll use my switch in the same way. I’m excited for the new 2d Mario and the Mario rpg remake. I’m sure they will both emulate well, but I have a switch so I might as well just pay them there.
