Hey everyone! I’m diving into the handheld gaming scene and I’m torn between getting a Steam Deck and holding out for the Nintendo Switch 2. From what I’ve read, the Deck seems to have some solid advantages but might lag behind the Switch 2 in power. With that said, I’m curious: is the Steam Deck still worth buying in 2025, and do you think we’ll see a Steam Deck 2 in the next couple of years?

I’d say go for the Deck! You won’t have to shell out big bucks for games, especially when you can snag them on sale. Plus, you won’t have to pay for extra features like online storage or voice chat like you would with the Switch. Nintendo’s prices can be shocking these days, and with the Deck, you’re likely to find better deals on a wider variety of games, including those epic indie titles. If you’re into more diverse gaming without the Nintendo price tag, the Deck’s a smart choice. Just remember, you can still play your favorite Nintendo classics on it too!
You make a good point! But can the Deck handle big AAA titles, or is it mostly for indies?
