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?

PC

Definitely my Deck. I like being able to sit on the couch and play alongside my husband on his PS5, rather than being stuck at a desk. I’ve always played handhelds, like the PSP, gameboy/DS/switch.

PC. I just love mouse and keyboard too much.

All platforms. I own a Gaming PC, PS3, 4, 5. XBOX One, Nintendo Switch and an old school Nintendo, Sega Genesis, also have a Wii, Wii U, and Nintendo DS, and DS 3D.
I just love video games!

PS5 and PC.
On PS5 it’s usually games like God of War and Horizon.
On PC it’s the occasional shooter, and I spend many hours on Satisfactory.
Occasionally I’ll find a fun game to play on my steam deck, but overall I don’t use it much. Make sure you evaluate the games that work on it before you spend to make sure you shouldn’t wait for the supported list to grow.

Got my deck earlier this week and have been loving it for emulation.

I went PC -> Switch -> Steam Deck. Also briefly PS1 when I was a kid. I’m a PC gamer at heart, probably gonna stick with it.

Nintendo 3DS is my favorite of all time 😁

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.

PC, mostly because I like KB+M. And if it’s a game that uses a controller, I have the steam deck.

PC. I have never owned a console my entire life.

I have owned most platform and by far I think the PS is the best. The exclusives are a level above everything else.

PC->Steamdeck->=Switch
PC for most games, but I also use it for most things in general
Steamdeck for any mid-tier games that can run on it well, or games that i’ll be playing while also doing other things. Also for portability
Switch for better portability if the quality will be more or less the same, since it’s lighter, smaller, and doesn’t heat up much/at all. But also pretty much strictly for portability. If I plan to use it on a screen i’ll use steamdeck.

Greatest of all time had to be the Nintendo DS. Such an amazing library full of games that weren’t afraid to try all kinds of crazy experiments.
Current-gen, my loyalty lies with Linux, even if the state of native ports isn’t so great.
