Small text, having to bring up a keyboard manually, launchers… these things arent something you’d see on a console. Unverified games and emulation require the most tinkering and thats when you really get to experience it as a PC.
In its default state, playing only verified games, only in handheld mode, without external controllers - the deck is a fine machine and offers a console experience.

I absolutely appreciate I have the option to do so and not be locked out of it - thats why im a Deck person and not a Switch one.
My point is the deck cant replace a switch and the switch cant replace a deck. They complement each other fine.
