I’m very interested on how powerful this thing is if it’s price is going to be higher than the LCD Steam Deck
From a purely hardware standpoint, the Steam Deck LCD panel is awful, 800p/60Hz with no VRR. Switch 2 is 1080p/120Hz w/ VRR. We don’t know much about the Switch processor but surely it is at least comparable to the original SD one with those sort of screen specs.
Steam Deck has to be sold at cost at the lowest, mostly because it’s just a PC and can be (and has been) used for a myriad of things that don’t involve Steam. Nintendo could sell these things at a huge loss and still make money hand over fist because they can’t do anything but play Switch games.
