I know a lot of these posts are pretty looked down upon on a lot of communities, but I want to provide as much information as possible so it’s not vague.

Basically, I’ve always been a console gamer. I play on PS5 and Switch. The reason I want to pick up a Steamdeck is that there’s a lot of smaller indie titles that don’t get console releases that I’d want to pick up. I’m hoping to get the OLED model with 512gbs instead of a terabyte. Smaller sized games and older titles are my main motivation for wanting a Steamdeck.

I already have a Steam Library but I don’t really have that many games and rarely play them. I have Persona 4 Golden, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core +R, Doki Doki Literature Club, and Streets of Kamurucho (the Yakuza retro beat em up).

The games that are encouraging me to get into Steamdeck are Hi-Fi Rush, Pizza Tower, and Rivals 2 when it comes out. I really like RPGs as well, but I think I want my Steamdeck to be a (for lack of a better term) silly machine for diverse gameplay experiences for games I can’t play elsewhere instead of a machine for big blockbuster games.

If anyone has any ideas that could come to mind, I’d really appreciate it.
