I don't know if a Switch 2 would get me to move away from my Steam Deck.
Can that thing emulate Nintendo shit capably?
I have emulators from Atari 2600 to N64 installed currently, and they all run well. Haven't tried any GameCube+ emulators yet, but I don't think it would have a problem. I've seen videos of people running TotK with a better frame rate than on Switch, but I don't if that was "out-of-the-box" or if they had to tweak things.
Either way, it's a damn capable device for the sub $300 it's on sale for right now. (Base model, of course) I've been thinking of upgrading to the high end OLED model.
GameCube and PS2 games work incredibly well on the Steam Deck. Some PS3 and Xbox 360 as well. I've played through several PS2 games and all of TLoZ Windwaker on my deck.
