Looks more like a DSSL testing (which had dedicated cores/hardware) rather the actual potential. Also, one single title, wake me when there's a test to match everything SteamDeck can emulate (Switch 1 too)

The Switch 1 and 2 are kind of unbeatable in power efficiency, and I'm not surprised a port of CP2077 is running better on the Switch 2 than on the Steam Deck. I wish they used a better screen and bigger battery out the gate with the Switch 2, but there will no doubt be a mid gen refresh with those things.
I think if you have a lot of money for buying games that are only going to work on one system, the Switch 2 is a better product for people that want a system that just works out the box. Steam Deck is for people with patience and an existing library.

Isn't the Steam Deck already a few years old now? Is this even a fair comparison?
replies:
I mean these comparisons are always a bit redundant to me. I get multiplatform games like that on steam, I use switch for Nintendo games and other casual stuff that I prefer to play handheld and are not super resource hogs.
The only people that this would affect are the extreme edge case where you have no PC or gaming laptop or Xbox/PS but have both a deck AND a switch 2 AND you don't care about the price difference and you really want the best handheld performance.
Fuck Nintendo
The potential extra optimization on consoles lessens the blow of paying a bit more.
