I’m still on the fence about getting the steam deck. I’ve never owned a hand held device besides my phone and gameboy. I want to get it but part of me is reluctant.

    If you have to convince yourself you need it, you’re going to regret your purchase. You’re setting up an expectation for the deck and if it falls short, that’s when buyers remorse kicks in.

    Some of the best purchases I’ve ever made were things I bought knowing full well I wanted it, not needed it. When you accept your purchase is a luxury, you don’t feel forced into seeing an immediate return on your investment. You enjoy it for what it is and enjoy it at your own pace.

    Long story short, if you want it, buy it. Take your time. Also I wouldn’t recommend packing it to the gills with games immediately. Install them and play them one at a time. It’s more enjoyable that way I think.
