My son is 6 and wants a switch. I know there's a new switch coming this year or next so I'm hesitant. From a value point of view, sales on steam and the back catalogue prices will be much more enjoyable for him. However, it's where his friends go. We're in Australia, so no official support or sales here, so we'll see when it's his birthday what the lay of the land is.
Being 6, I would just go with the game system they like. You and I know PC/SteamDeck are killer but youngins always fixate on what they like. Besides, I have a feeling a switch would be cheaper. Not so sure about a switch 2 being cheaper though.
Your kids lucky your thinking it out. ๐๐
