@nocdaes I own Breath of the Wild on Switch. Purchased a physical copy at a retailer (probably Target, but I don't remember exactly). I actually would prefer to play it on Steam Deck. When I travel, I only have so much room in my backpack with my laptop, tablet, power banks, and e-reader (not to mention my neck pillow, a hoodie if I'm traveling in the summer because those planes can get cold inside, snacks and a water bottle). If I'm leaving a piece of tech behind, it's going to be my Switch. I currently have a total of 6 Switch games. There are over 150 games in my Steam library, over 60 in my Epic Games library, and about 50 in my GOG library. I'm one of those weird people that likes to be able to access all of my games from one device, especially when I'm not at home.
Also, I find the SD much nicer to hold. My hands get fatigued after playing the Switch for more than 45 minutes. Not the case with my SD.
@Royalblues @blindsquarel It's gotten much easier lately. The 64GB model is available for purchase, with units shipping in about a week. The other models are taking about a week or two from the time you put a $5 deposit down until you receive the email instructing you to complete your purchase.
For instance, I put my $5 reservation in on September 19, got the email on the 29th, my unit shipped on October 3, and it arrived on the 5th. I ordered the 256GB model, and I live by New York City. The timeframe between reservation and purchase has been decreasing even since my order, but where you live could determine delivery times
