I’m thinking about getting a handheld as I’m spending more time away from my house and PC. I don’t want to get buy hundreds of dollars of games to go with it.

3ds xl / switch / Steam deck / Legion?

There seems a lot of options and all have plenty of games to them. Is there an obvious choice that I’m not aware of?

Thanks.

    Steam Deck or Legion all the way. My Steam Deck can run anything starting from NES up to PS3 titles without issue and PC titles also aren’t a problem (and there are even pretty good tools to automatically sync your saves between the deck and any other PC you have). The possibility of expanding the space with an SD card is very handy for Roms, which don’t need tons of transfer speed to run fine. (although i also put smaller PC games on there which work fine, but loading times for larger games might become uncomfortable)
