Some people say this same thing about the Nintendo Switch and its successor, but here we are, with the former closing in on highest selling console of all time, and the latter tracking above that.
- saltamimi 4mo agoI don't remember anyone saying this about the Switch and at the time, the reviews for North America at least were very positive.
- ilivethere 4mo agoNot OC, but I believe the RAM price surge is what will kill the Steam Machine. For the same price, you can get a gaming laptop with better specs.

- CobrastanJorji 4mo agoSure, but I didn't buy a Switch because of its power or because of its form factor. I bought it because that was the way to play Zelda.
- croes 4mo agoSo why do people buy a Switch 2?
- crookedview 4mo agoFor all the new Nintendo first-party games.
- croes 4mo agoThe best at the moment is DK Bananza but it’s nowhere near a Zelda game. The rest are updates and remaster of previous games. There isn’t teal system seller at the moment
- toast0 4mo agoI don't have one, but I assume it's a better Switch. All the existing games work on it, some with enhanced versions (but probably load times are better anyway, right?), and there's new games that only run on the Switch 2. Switch 1 releases are likely to dry up over time.
- CobrastanJorji 4mo agoI guess because my kids keep breaking the shoddy slide-on joycons, and the new magnetic ones are a much better design.
- Scroll_Swe 4mo agoBecause a console is a console. Look at the PS2. Incredible games on bespoke custom harware. We didnt know how good we had it.
- rjh29 4mo agoWho thought that? The switch was an explosion when it launched.
- iteria 4mo agoSo many people (hard-core gamers) thought the switch would be DOA when it was announced. Nintendo just doesn't target those. I assume the same here. People also thought no one would be interested in the steam deck either. You know, because it was just a slightly better switch. People really don't understand how small the hard-core competitive gamer market is. Literally no one I know plays competitive online games and we all spend hundreds of dollars on steam a year. Valve is targeting us.
- veber-alex 4mo agoNobody cares about the Switch hardware, they but it to play Nintendo games. This is just a x86 PC.
