I play my Steam Deck more than I play my Switch 2.

Likewise. The Switch 2 is a very nice handheld, but it doesn’t hold a candle to having a never-locked-down x86 PC in your hands.

it also costs half as much as a steamdeck.

you're comparing a Civic to a BMW3 series and asking why the Civic doesn't have leather seats and a 5K audio system.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Well, it does NOW. At the prices I paid the Steam Deck was only a bit more.

cool, and a few years ago you could get a switch lite for $200. still can, in fact.

I’m really not sure what point you’re trying to make here.

Is the Switch Lite the Honda Fit?

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world -2 points 1 month ago

my point is everything was cheaper a few years ago.
