Ok so now we need to list TV's? Internet? Electricity? Jfc.

[–] Primarily0617@kbin.social 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

no because those things are very obviously common to both

Ok you need to pay $60/yr to play online with switch. Let's factor that in real quick lol

And yes it is reasonable to assume anyone buying a steamdeck has a M+K

FYI there is a $20 plan. I'm on your side here, but gotta get facts right.

nobody i know who has a switch wants to play online with it, but sure

i'm not sure why having a mouse and keyboard is relevant

M+K = control system when docked. It's very relevant.

Anecdotal and irrelevant because the service exists and is used by millions. Nobody debating between a steamdeck and a switch is planning for it to be offline play all the time.

you want me to plug my keyboard and mouse into the deck so i can sit within arms reach of the TV to play?

defeats the purpose, I'd say

this is literally every bit as anecdotal

I have to believe you're just trolling at this point. I'm done man. Feel free to have the last word, I'm sure it's very important to you.

I congratulate you on your attempt, but I honestly don't know how you lasted this long because holy fuck did it look like you're trying to argue with a particularly dim houseplant

You've never heard of or owned wireless peripherals? We're not in the 90's.
