My first machine was a commodore 64, then Nes, SNES, Master system, Megadrive, N64, OG Xbox then Stopped gaming after the Xbox 360 end of life. Don't have time to get setup in front of a TV or monitor or the inclination.
The switch came out and I got a chance of one cheap. Bought it loved that I could pick it up put it down and lock it so it was exactly where I left the game last time. BOTW was great played Skyrim again then got bored of the gimmick games with not many adult titles and Nintendo's poor updates. And the joycons are completely shit.
The switch languished in a drawer for ages then I gave it to my 7 year old nephew.
I heard about the deck taking preorders so got my name down.
As someone who primarily plays 5 year or older RPGs it is an absolute dream machine. I can play it at work when I'm quiet, I can play it with the TV on in the background, I can lie in bed with it.
Put it this way if I broke the deck right now I'd go out and buy another tomorrow.
I really hope there will be updates to get starfield playable.
I will never go back to consoles that aren't handheld again.
