Games? Console details/features? It'll be an hour long apparently.

An Earthbound remake would be rad, but I'm not holding my breath on that obviously lol

No idea. To be honest, I don't know what Nintendo's direction with the switch 2 would be? The steamdeck seems to me to be seated in the position that the switch 2 would seek to place itself. Imo, there was a lot of room left by the wii with motion and pointing controls that Nintendo left unexplored, especially after the wii motion plus was released. I also feel the same way with the dual screen and touch screen of the ds and 3ds (with resistive touch screens instead of capacitive)

imo steam deck and switch are for two totally different audiences. steam deck is more for game enthusiasts who play on pc and want to tweak stuff. switch is for normies who just wanna jump over things in games. not saying either is better than the other or anything. just seems different to me
