Check out the GPD Win devices, they are basically handheld x86 PCs running Windows 10 (you can install Linux too). The third one was announced recently (i'm not sure if it is yet available) and is quite good (also has a more Switch-like design while the others are more like tiny laptops) - here is a video of Linus from Linus Tech Tips gushing over it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LclRTo2YnQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LclRTo2YnQ
One issue they have is that they're expensive (the earlier ones can be found for cheap, note however that the first one might have some battery issues) compared to the Switch, but on the other hand they are not susceptible to planned obsolescence and extreme locked down environments like pretty much all consoles are: you can run any game of the gigantic PC game library there (assuming the specs are met... of course :-P) and new games will be released for pretty much as long as the hardware can function.
Here is me using mine with an unfinished version of an MS-DOS game jam game (i had to put my tablet between me and the handheld to record it hence the awful controlling): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF8WqllGKg8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF8WqllGKg8
(yeah they're also neat demo devices :-P)
