I’m the same: I used it a ton when I first got it and now it’s collecting dust. Here are my personal issues with it:
I guess I essentially just wanted a Switch that could use my Steam library for 2D indies and older games.
Aside from that, I think I also kinda bought it to rejuvenate my interest in gaming, but it only did that for a few months. That has nothing to do with the Deck though.
Yeah, that last part about getting my gaming vibe going is something I recognize. I used to get a lot of joy out of gaming and could spend hours on it. Now it is feeling more and more like something I do just to pass time.
I really like the dumb detachable controllers on the Switch. I love that form factor. I wish I could play 2D or low res Steam games on the Switch. But I don't really want to buy a Switch without that, and the hardware is kinda underpowered, and there's no Linux support that I know of.
