In that case power is the main selling point. These are able to run more intensive games than a steam deck. Personally I don't think they're cost effective and I'm still just waiting on Microsoft to make windows navigable for a controller but if you're an Xbox player and are all about gamepass 🤷‍♂️

Switch 2 isn't really targeting the same demographic considering this and devices like the steam deck are full PCs not walled gardens like consoles.
