    It feels like Nintendo is a lot like apple. It doesn't matter if it's a worse product than their competitors, their users have accepted the walled garden wholly.

      Nintendo...not even pirated. I refuse to even contribute to their popularity given their litigiousness and patent bullshittery.

        Considering the Steam Deck is the PC handheld market leader, doesn't run the bloat that is Windows 11, and is vastly cheaper than the Ally X, I'm really confused on why they didn't include it in the comparison. Literally not even a mention of the Steam Deck in the article. The Ally X is a really, really bad value proposition compared to the Steam Deck.

          Because this is a PR fluff piece bought and paid for by Nintendo.

            We've reached the point of diminishing returns on hardware. IMO, anything that can't run on Switch 2 probably deserves to be scaled back anyway.

              Gotta love the catharsis of emulating Nintendo's flagships on competing products, though. Hard to that for Apple's hardware (although less relevant)

                I had a buddy who would buy old apple computers, switch them to Linux so he could open a window of windows on an apple. That's kinda like what you suggested only backwards. lol

                      One is an open ecosystem of decades worth of games, especially with the emulated ones and the other is a walled garden of over-priced games. Yeah, I am sticking to my steam deck.

                        They might not even need to pay for it and just do it to avoid getting blacklisted. I can't take articles like this seriously because the guy publishes up to 5 of them a day. I know that it is their job and they get advance copies to play before release day, and they have assistants.

                          Iโ€™m glad money is of no concern for you but one device costs twice as much as the other ๐Ÿ™‚

                            Thatโ€™s a really weirdly passive aggressive way to respond. I donโ€™t want either of these devices, but you posted a shit article about nothing.
