Switch V1 still worth it in 2024? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I currently play most games thru emulators but been wondering whether it is worth it to get the Switch V1 version for handheld.

my plan would be putting the roms onto the Switch and then play handheld (is this possible?)

Playing when traveling, a few hours in bed before sleeping or cozy up next to the heather in the evening seems nice. However is it still worth around €300 euro for it, may I have your opinion on the matter?

You have to decide for yourself if it's worth it. You're right about the hackability and the steam deck can't properly emulate all switch games at the proper speed.

You might also look into the Mig 2 once it's available, but then you probably can't backup your saves.

I like my OG switch. It's just less bulky than the steam deck. But the joycons are really small.
