Not FIRE-related, but I wish I took the money that I spent on a Switch a year ago and put it toward a Steam Deck. I mostly play Rocket League and Apex Legends when I’m traveling and woof… it’s rough.

That's a bummer. Can you sell the switch and put the money towards a steam deck?

Probably could, but that sounds like work. For a while I bought/sold on r/hardwareswap but I’m continuing my protest. I’m lazy :)

FWIW, I have both a Switch and Steam Deck and prefer the Switch honestly. The Steam Deck can do more and take advantage of better sales, but we find ourselves using the Switch far more often

Makes sense! Truthfully I’m not a huge handheld fan. I have a Miyoo Mini + to play some Gameboy and SNES games on the go. Otherwise I just want something that I can plug in when I visit cousins or BIL.

I actually have some leftover laptop RAM and a Ryzen 3400g so I may buy a Deskmini X300 for my travel PC. It’s not quite as powerful as the Steam Deck in gaming but it would only cost me $150 versus $400+
