No way dude said he'd keep an open mind then made the games section a draw. On what planet is the Nintendo library comparable to Steam's massive game library?
I love both of them! I have a switch and I absolutely love playing it because i wanna play exclusive cool games, and I also use steam on my gaming pc so I dont really need steamdeck, but both are very nice! Which one would yall chose?
Dude WE CAN DO WHOLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MORE WITH THE STEAM DECK!
Games From Nintendo switch can emulate switch + we don't have to pay to play online or get the old games.
Steam deck is wayyy better.
you never mentioned the steam decks oled highere refresh rate
The switch is way better lmao. The steam deck is way too big.
Amazing video!
Im gon get the switch 2 cause i love nintendo and the games and i dont need that much power cause im not gonna be playing nothing like god of war or sum but i love how the steam deck looks
Games literally goes to the deck, you can play PlayStation exclusive as well as many Xbox titles. That’s not even mentioning all of the games that are only available on Steam. (Also emulating but Nintendo wouldn’t be too happy about that one)
I have a modded switch, and I’m getting a steamdeck very soon.
A modded switch allows for the ease of modding switch games and access for getting switch games free.
Downsides are no pc games, no GameCube and Wii emulation, and a few other things.
Simply installing emu deck on a steamdeck adds unlimited capability to the system, with the downside being that switch games are harder to obtain now, and so are switch emulators.
Other than that, they both have their upsides, as long as you have a modded switch and your getting the best out of it.

Steam Deck. Period.
I'm gonna take the switch Everytime if I could only choose one for three simple reasons
1. No matter what the deck apologists tell you the switch HAS WAY Better battery life and that's insanely important to me.
2. The switch is the last console left with quality actual exclusives. It compliments my two laptops nicely.
3. The deck is bulky enough that I may as well just bring my 2 in 1 12 inch along which has MUCH faster cpu,more ram (faster also) ,faster SSD and equivalent GPU roughly. It's thinner and fits into my bag easier,just like the switch fits easier than a deck does.
And I'm primarily a PC gamer.
Do what a steam deck cant do:
Remove Controlers: Switch ✅ Steam Deck ❌
Connect To Tv: Switch ✅ Steam Deck❌
Use Controler Like Wii Remote: Switch ✅ Steam Deck ❌
Save Your Money: Switch ✅ Steam Deck ❌
(but the switch has one big advantage the joycons) u mean the ones that have the worst drift of any controllers of all time and also are barely used disconnected most people if they play together just use it on a tv i like the switch it used to be my main console (until it broke as soon as i bought persona 3 portable) but the joycons are absolutely annoying
It feels unfair that this video was made before the steam deck oled
You can also install android and even Linux on the switch so I guess that's another point.
Steam Deck has Oled now
Why is my broke ass here, I cant afford neither of this🤣
I can play pc and switch games on my steamdeck, so ya steamdeck all the way 😅
BTW, unsupported games also tend too work, though even more tweaking g is usually needed
Great review, thank you mate
Stupid comparison, Deck is obviously the winner with an open ecosystem, which means you can put a switch inside it.
I prefer my switch OLED idc
I dont have a steamdeck but I'm prettier sure it wins since its more closer to a ps4 in term of hardware and software specs from what im heard along having larger gaming library than the switch. Though portability i think the switch beats it but the joycon drift is something got watch out for for the switch as i went through joycons few times before going to a third part control dock controller that i love using. Also one thing i like about switch compared to steamdeck is at least i can get some physical games. I love get steamdeck but i already own a ps4, ps5, a switch lite, and switch oled with all i share with my brother, we would get steamdeck but that means more money we have to invest in the steamdeck and even more in its massive library with.
Get an steam deck oled it’s newer he was doing this before it was made
Switch officially beats steam deck? seriously? I know you are a fanboy, but this is ridiculous. Steam deck has more power, more games, more features, more customizability, more repairability etc.. even you can emulate switch games on steam deck. still you say switch wins? WTF??
Bro was sucking Nintendo’s wang
While I do not fully agree with the outcome I will say it was done fairly. The switch has won and its sales represent that, but the steam deck in my opinion is better.
Switch game prices are too high, while steam games u gt offer sometimes around 5$
I received my Nintendo switch last Christmas right before the steam console came out. I'm feeling really cornered with my options as far as the genre I enjoy playing. Which is multiplayer animal/dragon/dinosaur games. I'm really disappointed and wish I would have waited for the steam console
Such a cool comparison! In-depth, funny, and to-the-point. I just couldn't quite get what you meant by Joy Cons 'drifting' because I've never heard about such a thing and had to Google it.
what game is it at 6:07?
You can´t analise the price without analise the price of the games. And Steam is cheaper.
In 9:12 he should have gaven steamdeck 4points for better shading fps and the ghz and ram
the switch is just a nostalgic thing for me at this point. I'm truly enjoying the physical games but I do enjoy the cross save abilities with some switch & steam games.
I’ve been a Nintendo gamer for decades. Love my switch and it’s been my primary system. With that said, I’d recommend the average person to buy a steamdeck. I’m looking to get one myself since my laptop is up in age, then I’ll have the best of both.
1:07
"So if you need to settle it and smash while on the bus"
You need to work better on that phrasing
just another nintendo fanboy making more useless excuses to justify a garbage console that barely runs minecraft
I think the awnser is both, nintendo exlusives and steam deck for high end pc games, if you can only afford one, mmm,
Yuzu emulator can do everything switch offer okay bye
I'd say it's a tie
Lol nintendo fan boy trying his best to give points to switch
Can I just say if your going to play docked on the switch all the time just get the regular one it's saves you 50 pounds
Also if you love indie games the switch is the one to go for as it is full of them
Man I wish I can get the steam Deck, I'm sure if I saved I could get it but… I already own a Switch which I love. For me, I fear that If I get a steam deck, Then I'll leave my switch In the dust and probably never use it again. So I'm probably gonna just stick with my switch
