WatchMojo’s Awful Switch vs Steam Deck Video 

"In case you run into your friends in public" What am I supposed to lock eyes with a friend if I bump into them in the park like it's a pokemon battle and duel them on my switch?

It took me nearly half of the video to realize that the WM logo wasn't a new Waste Management logo.

I've played many unverified games on my steam deck and they all run completely fine...

Hell practically ever since I got my Steam Deck, my Switch OLED has been collecting dust. I actually played my Switch the other night. Turned on Pokemon Scarlet, laughed at how bad it still preformed, unintentionally triggered a glitch, laughed some more, and then went back to playing Palworld on my Steam Deck that somehow runs better on that than Scarlet/Violet does on the only console it has to run for.

I hate Corporate Nintendo Boot-Lickers!

PC is basically all digital. Even the physical games are just Steam codes with some of the game on the disc. I got biomutant a couple of years ago and that's how it was. It was nice that it helped keep the download times down a little though.

I never get why people compare the the steam deck to the switch. Like why do they act like nintendo is the only one that can do portable gaming devices

WM: "What does Ninten-do that Steam Deck don't?" Joe: "Charge 60 bucks for Mario Kart 8" I laughed way too hard at your response. XD

I have a switch, but I would give it up in a second for a Steamdeck.

Like 92% of games in my library works great on the steamdeck... sure some of those might take a 5 minute ticker, or a controller mapping setup. But that doesn't stop me from playing those games. Honestly the only games that usually dont work at all is multiplayer focus games like the lastest cod due to its anti cheat. (Alot of multiplayer focus games do still work fine on the steamdeck though) or VR games... thats it. Most games can work just fine if your willing to ticker a bit to get it to work. And when i mean a bit... I just mean taking 20 seconds to change compatability layer which is easy to do, or map the controls like for the game READY or NOT... If you dont want to tinker at all and just want games to work out of the box... than ill say like 50% of games at best will work on the steamdeck with no tickering.

The Steam Deck wins hands down, no contest. Case in point, Doom Eternal on Switch runs on low settings at 30 fps just to function decently. On Steam Deck, the same damn game can be run on Ultra Nightmare settings and you get 60 fps. In a freakin’ handheld!

How does the steam deck make people utter idiots? There's Harmon Smith and Quantum TV making clowns of themselves while trying to talk about it.

Oh god, I saw this a few months back and as an owner of both, all their points against the deck are wrong

Just as an FYI but Joycons are compatible with Steam input so if you really want to use them you can

Honestly I have a Switch and a Steam deck which I received back in April and I haven't looked back. The Steam deck is far superior forget 3rd party games on the Switch like Subnauticas the visuals and performance are both abysmal. The Steam deck on the other hand you can play most games on high to max settings while getting 45-60 frames. Thanks Joe for the great content definitely an underrated channel.

mojo is so down bad omg

The Switch made more sense, when it first came out. Close enough to the Ps4 that it could get competent ports. When the Ps5/Series X came out, it kinda lost that, making it so that it almost gets no ports outside of devs being so dedicated (Hogwarts Legacy) and the Steam Deck was the nail in the coffin, since it does what the Switch does but so much better. If Nintendo wants to stay on top of the curve, they need a successor soon.

joe make more vids ur very entertaining

also joe just an fyi all the games in playable have no real issues apart from needing to use the keyboard once and the unsupported actually work if u do litteraly 30 seconds of tinkering so its alot that work

The Steam Deck is amazing if you already have a large library. I'd never stop singing the praises of the Switch if you could have had all of your digital purchases from the Wii and Wii U.

I can watch as many Steam Deck hate videos I want. It won't stop me getting one in about a week or two from now. Some people have a lot of personal issues to try and favour a corporation. Who treats you as a number on a spreadsheet for revenue.

gc down fall waas the mini dvd, they used the same basic hardware for the wii

Yeah WatchMojo doesn't get nearly enough flak for the garbage they put out.

You lose brain cells watching WatchMojo. Thank you for risking your mental health exposing their crap.

I have a Steam Deck and a Switch These systems should not be compared because they are different from each other and are created for a different recipient. but I can play Palworld on the go : )

I had never watched one of your videos before. As I started watching this one, I thought it was an exercise in... Envy? towards another RU-vid channel. But, I was so very wrong. Your points are all completely valid and I am now going to watch your content and avoid WatchMojo like the bloody plague. I got very upset at their so-called comparison. The Deck can run Switch games. A lot of them better than the Switch does. The reverse is not and never will be true, whereas the number of Deck emulated gaming platforms and their quality will only grow as time goes by. Thank you for your factual quality!

I keep playing games that haven't been tested on the deck by Valve without too many issues. They just give a little pop up after you play 3 or 4 hours asking about the experience and you can ignore it if you want to.

As someone who owns both of these things, I'm floored by how terrible their video was. No mention of Photon and how that almost doubled the available games on the Steam Deck, their...terrible reasonings, their refund policy and how Nintendo doesn't have one, and lack of real criticisms because there are plenty to be made about the SD. But at the end of the day, one has had a dead battery for like...3 weeks now and the other is playing Yakuza Kiwami.

Steam Deck is superior to Switch in every way, EVERY WAY. It's not a competition it's a fucking slaughter and Steam Deck is holding the bloodied knife.

I like how watch MOJO talks about switch exclusives for the multiplayer part but doesn't bring up any coop game for the steam deck like oh no I have to bring a controller to a friend's place that I knew I'd be playing with anyway to play a game that's coop and not smash bros also whenever I brought my switch I brought my switch pro controller so my friend doesn't have to use the crappy joycons anyway lol

You need to pay your cat tax.

On the point of steam Verified: most none verified games run fine. valve seem to be really strict on what counts as "verified" and honestly if its got a yellow Icon your probably fine.

Ain't No Fucking Way Did WM Award a Point to The Switch for Online Multiplayer!! Ain't No Fucking Way!!!! 😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Steamdeck shits all over that & its free too!! XD

a lot of your points are kind of just raging at nintendo for having 30fps games tbh.

Can't we just laugh at them for comparing a 300 dollar device vs a 600 dollar device? 😂

Switch has x and y (not a pun for the pokemon games i swear) but the steam deck can do lots more and it doesn't hold your hand plus isn't a lag fest on certain games being cloud versions which are anti consumer. Sure they didn't mention emulation on purpose can imagine their views on emulation...... oh god please WM do a video so joefromseattle can make a video!

yea.. ok 10k out of the 50-60000 games dont work on the deck compared to the 5k on switch and if we count gog the deck has maybe even 70 or 80 k games available

There are literally asset filps on the switch so that stuff about quality control is a straight up lie

This video is even funnier now. Everybody knows, Steam Deck make the best games. That shit is ABAP.

Alright new joe video 🎉 🎉🎉, they still make physical pc games? Can I get Elden ring physically on pc ?

i saw his video, what a mess. he created categories out of his ass , specifically designed to make switch looks good, and even with those categories he had to cheat and use a lot of bullshit excuses to make switch win. i bet in his other comparissions he use different categories, its a pointless review, there are too many things to comment about each device like the repair/lack of repair issue, that anyone can make any device look good. anyway, steam deck is better i have no doubt about it, the only thing positive we can say about switch is their exclusives, but even those, i dont think making something exclusive is a good thing, and valve is proving its not nescessary, not to mention we can emulate some of those games, so the last thing in favor of nintendo is, at least they still make games unlike valve but that is a small issue, because steam deck have so many thirdy party games that nintendo games arent going to compensate.

Dude really wanted a Switch for Christmas and got dumped by his GF instead 😂

I've known the steam deck to only list the game is playable because you have to Force the keyboard to open the first time you set it up. The standards for a game being listed as verified are incredibly strict.

i personally would hope nintendo take notes from what valve did with the steam deck where they sell good hardware.

Bigger Screen on Deck,Two Bluetooth full Size controllers and BOOM!!! Multiplayer Deck🤣🤣🤣🤣

What the gamecube doesnt hold up with ps2 and 360

ayy i watched their vid a bit ago and couldnt stop laughing when they said SD has worse online cuz it diesnt offer as much bonus stuff as the switch. like yeah oh no the free wifi diesnt come with official nintendo online emulators and runs better without costing money and having better friend list management plus a friends chat system and game invite

Since America has the worst internet service in the western world, digital will always be a no for me. And not forgetting that im not fucking my data cap on games. It takes me 4 days to download a 80gig game at 111kbps on its best day

I'm depressed

2:20 SwitchDeck

So the real wins are … specs - steam deck …. Online - steam deck ( avoiding something don’t make you good at it) ….. price - steam deck ….. games - steam deck (it can play new aaa titles at respectable settings plus emulate most Nintendo games) …. portability - switch (it’s smaller) winner - steam deck because I don’t need chock on a Nintendo shlong

People are allowed to like Nintendo.

So according to WatchMojo the best online console is the Atari 2600.

I like how pc gamers always complain about consoles. Like dude just play games.

Switch is for kiddos. Steam deck is for the adults.

You guys dont get what exclusive means. The games you can play on steam deck are also available on pc (higher performance and graphics). Meanwhile switch games are only available on switch. All games on switch work fine but you cant pretend to run high performance games on that steam deck lmao

Witcher 3 switch is lock at 25fps Unless!! You mod your switch and mod the Witcher 3 system file to unlock it to 30 However you can do nothing about the muddy texture🤣🤣🤣....or just play it in Steam Deck 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I honestly dont get the point of a steam deck. Its a pc with lower performance to play games that you can also play on pc. Like at least if i get the switch i play games that i couldnt play other way

how is the steam decks settings limited to a PCs as its just a PC and runs the same games with the same setting?

Mojo are decent , just dont have a personal flair to their channel thats what happens when channels become corporations mate. I still watch them sometimes some people complain too damn much
