I made this exact mistake when the Switch OLED came out. I got caught up in hype, I bought the new one, and slowly it dawned on me that I just spent 300 extra dollars for exactly the same machine I already had, and a screen that, as good as it was, was NOT worth that 300 dollars.
If you don’t own a Steam deck, then go nuts! Do what you want.
If you already own a Steam Deck, you already own everything you actually wanted a Steam deck for. An OLED screen is not going to make the games you already play somehow magically better. You’re fine. Chill out
Not sure what you’re on about. I bought an OLED Switch for both of my kids, and after seeing a game playing on it for a few seconds, it made me not want to play my OG Switch or my Lite at all. When the Metroid Prime remaster came out, I played it on my daughter’s OLED.
I got an OG 512 Deck that I use daily. I will absolutely be getting an OLED Deck, and it will absolutely be worth it to me. Spending 2 days’ pay on an upgrade to a device I use every single day is 100% worth it.
