It really comes down to which platform has the games that excite you the most. If you already have a solid Steam library, the Steam Deck is kind of a no-brainer—I absolutely love mine. But if you don’t, then ask yourself: would you rather spend $80 on a handful of high-quality but limited Nintendo titles, or tap into the massive and diverse world of PC games on Steam, often at way better prices? Personally, I lean toward the latter. And for what it’s worth, I think the Steam Deck has a big edge over the Legion when it comes to controls—those touchpads and other features are seriously underrated.
