I mean it’s your money, but if you already have a portable handheld with better screen, better battery, and that can run the whole of the steam catalogue… why spend $450 (or whatever) on the Mario Machine, is it just for the exclusives?
I and my kids value the exclusives, especially Smash Brothers, Mario Kart, Zelda, and Kirby. I could emulate those, but getting local multiplayer working is tricky and not something I expect my kids to do with their friends. We also share games with neighbors, which is nice too.
Most of my time and gaming money goes to my Steam Deck, because that’s what I play when the kids go to bed. In fact, I never play the Switch without my kids watching. We have maybe 20 Switch games, and I have hundreds of Steam games. I see value in both ecosystems.
Why wait? Get a Steam Deck now and have hundreds of thousands of games available to play.
