    If you want to discuss prices, discuss them fully. The Deck is more expensive, but the games are cheaper. And the day I bought the Deck I already had a massive collection, with many more games added for free from epic, giveaways…

      Depends on when you buy the game. New retail games on steam deck are still 50-60 bucks.

      I can also find massive discounts on digital games on switch. I just bought like a bunch of $5 or less games on the last eshop sale.

      Does Zelda and Mario go on sale for $5? No. They go on sale for like $30-40. I also just bought Mario Odsyessy for $40.

      I’m happy to pay these prices. Cool if you are not? Lots of people buy shit I would never spend my money on. I haven’t bought a gaming PC in 15 years, because it me it seems like a huge waste of money and time.

      Almost as if other people have different preferences, and priorities than you do? And they are happy to buy products you are not.
