Why not get a Steam Deck and emulate Nintendo games instead? Along the thousands of games you play on Steam...

Switch emulators have weird stuttering, frame rate, and various issues. I should know I tried to emulate them. It was a mess. Also, a lot of people really don’t want a handheld with all the hassles of a PC. People like consoles because they’re simple. Hence why the switch has sold like 150 million, and the steam deck has sold like 1.5 million.

Why buy a steam deck when you can emulate Nintendo games on your PC?
