Not an official announcement, but it’s probably safe to assume an Xbox handheld is in development.

    Nah probably the deck. Switch has been out for a long time these companies didn’t start rushing to make these portables until after steam deck. With your logic why stop at the switch. Switch? TRY THE GAME BOY MY GUY

        That literally has nothing to do with it as evident by the fact that these handheld didn’t start coming out until after the steam deck. Switch total sales have been high for years now. This is a new trend. You’re free to think whatever you want though

        You cannot compare these. While it is true that the switch sold 13 million+ units it’s first year, these are worldwide sales, while the Steam deck started (and still is) only in a few select markets, and started at a bit over 1 million units sold the first year. That’s what, 8% compared to the Switch’s first year? The deck was not being sold (at least not directly) in over 92% of the countries where the Switch was, so it seems like they are on par, or at least very close, by region.

        Also consider that the switch is more targeted at kids, while the deck is targeted at more mature players.

          TL;DR You can compare. By total sales to unequivocally know why everyone wants the same form factor.

          It’s weird the coolaid drinkers cant read the start of threads to stay on topic.
