Hello! Casual gamer here who also likes SDV and cute, pretty and colorful art styles (like Animal Crossing, Story of Seasons, Rune Factory, Atelier series, etc). I was gifted the Switch, so that’s where I started. Then I discovered I also liked jrpgs (I wanted to play the Trails series and the first 3 are on Steam) so I saved up and got a Steam Deck about 2 months ago.
I like both and rotate depending on the game I want to play. So like all my games on Switch just works (graphics not perfect, but it works) but the games are really pricey even during sales. Steam Deck is heavy for my small girl hands and I had to learn how to tinker with stuff like adding mods to SDV and Sims 4 :D (graphics are really better on SD tho I had to accept Harvestella is borked right now…) But Steam sales! xD
I think if your wife just wanna chill and game, maybe she’ll like the Switch more? I agree tho maybe ask her to try SDV on SD first if she likes it then go with it since it’s tons better :D Hth!
