I read somewhere else some games would be $90, no thanks. I was weighing Switch 2 or Deck, ended up with deck. No regrets.
With deck at least you don't pay to use your own internet, and if a game is too expensive at launch you know it will be down to 50% at a sale in a year or so.
I consider myself a patient gamer now. I just wait till most my purchases are on sale.
Same. Benefits of preordering:
Benefits of waiting for a sale:
Had a switch lite, looking at the deck. Steam store beats everything.
I have had switch 1 since launch & had fun on it I won't lie. I also agree with you on Steam.
I got it during my stay at a remote mountain region, bad connectivity and unreliable electricity. Switch was my savior, but as soon as I got back it became obvious other platforms are usually better for the same game.
