I've gone from PC to Xbox 360 to Nintendo Switch and very excited about the recent addition of a Steam Deck. Curious what y'all gaming on?

But it does seem to have better hardware for the price which they usually get back from games so unless u buy a lot of games it's probably a cheaper option. That said I am strictly a pc gamer playing indie titles so take it with a grain of salt.

Don't fall for the trap, it's not cheaper when you consider that you can do no upgrade and no repair

It's also not cheaper when you consider the cost and limited choice of console games compared to the almost limitless choice of things to play on a PC, many of which are free or can often be heavily discounted. Also I hear your can use your PC for other things too!
