Choose only one: Would you rather have a Switch or Steamdeck (or similar) with you on a trip?

If not a Steamdeck, one of those portable gaming systems like a ROG Ally or Legion.

So, the question is: Which one of these systems would you choose as your entertainment on a month-long trip?

Which games would you play on it? Can they interest you for a month?

Personally, I’d be very torn because I would really love to check up on my ACNH island every day, but I don’t enjoy enough Nintendo games to bring my Switch as my only gaming console. If I brought my ROG Ally X with me, I’d have a lot more choices of games but I’d still be sad I can’t check my AC town.

I'm bringing my Switch since I don't have a Steam Deck. Pulled one over on y'all.

I would bring ALL my games. I like them all too much to just pick one or two.

And which games are they?

And which games are they?

I'll use my portable Wi-Fi for the online ones:

- Pokemon Shield
- Super Mario Odyssey
- Animal Crossing: New Horizons
- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team DX
- Bluey: The Videogame
- Minecraft
- MySims: Cozy Bundle
- Super Mario Maker 2
- Pokemon Lets Go Pikachu!
- Among Us
- Stardew Valley

I would miss my Nintendo games but in reality I have more of my games on my Steam Deck than Switch. So I'd vote Steam Deck.

I'd bring my switch. And honestly, I'd probably only play ACNH since I'm in an ACNH phase. I have a lot of switch games I need to play in case I got bored too, so should be fine.

I do get curious about what new consoles are released, but I'm not interested in getting another handheld console for myself, so I'd choose my Switch 2! Thankfully most of the games can just be accessed digitally anyway. I have very little time and a lot of games I'd either like to start or keep playing!

To start: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, Little Nightmares III, Yoshi's Crafted World, Alba: A Wildlife Adventure.
To continue working through: Cult of the Lamb: Woolhaven, Arctictopia, Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, Pokémon Z-A, Kirby Air Riders, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Kirby and the Forgotten Land: Star-Crossed World, Pikmin 1, and Arise (as you can see, I have a lot of games in progress on my Switch that I still need to get through...).

Switch. I like taking Nintendo handhelds with me whenever I travel. I’m not really interested in the Steamdeck.
