I keep seeing ads for the Steam deck and PlayStation portal but never see anyone talking about them. I used to own a 3Ds when it first came out and wanted to hear others thoughts on their relevance.

I grew up with PSP and DS models, so I have a lot of nostalgia for them.
Would love to buy a Switch 2 when it comes out but honestly the game market just seems a bit crap. Hogwarts Legacy was just ported which is cool, but it seems like the exception that proves the rule.
I have done some research on the deck. It’s apparently amazing and a lot of people have scrapped their consoles for it.
In general you’re usually paying slightly more for the portability of weaker hardware, but portability is a super worth-it feature if you’re the type to use it i.e. long bus trips, sit around college campus a lot between classes, have to spend a lot of time undergoing certain medical treatments, etc. Nobody talks about the PlayStation Portal because it just came out (and is kind of shit), but everyone was talking about the Steam Deck 2 years ago when it launched, and I still see it everywhere.
If you don’t need the portability though, just go with the standard console/PC
