I feel like this Nintendo's reaction to the Steam Deck's price for the base model.
Prior to this, I felt that Nintendo was taking advantage of the consumer by increasing the price. It seemed greedy because they knew it would sell even with the price hike

Re: Random: Uh-Oh, Nintendo's Switch Online 'Expansion Pack - Overview Trailer' Is Generating A Lot Of Dislikes
Talk about out of touch....
If only Nintendo did a Netflix/Game pass type deal, would anyone pay this price.
They could even let you buy the games you want at a discount.
What if all my purchases from Wii/U carried over like they do on Steam when I upgrade my PC... sigh...

Re: Unavailability Of Classic Titles Is "Holding Game Culture Back", Says Platinum's Hideki Kamiya
This is a major issue with console gaming. Each game is tied to the console it came out on and does not carry over to the next console.
This is why I have moved over to PC gaming

Re: Valve Responds To 'Switch Vs Steam Deck' Comparisons, Insists It's "Going After" A Different Audience
@HexagonSun I don't see storage as an issue.
My S.Deck will have 512gb plus all my sd cards.
What does the switch have? 32/64gb plus sd cards?
Also to have a large steam collection all in one place for mobile is absurd
Re: Valve Responds To 'Switch Vs Steam Deck' Comparisons, Insists It's "Going After" A Different Audience
@Heavyarms55 it's also a gaming PC
