So I wanted to get Switch 2 for my mom on Black Friday. She loves Mario, Yoshi and especially Zelda games.

Month ago, I bought the Steam Deck OLED and put pirated games on it including switch 1, WiiU and PC games. She now mentions she wants the Steam Deck too.

Problems is, she’s kind of not so technical. She gets stressed when things go wrong and has no idea what to do and waits for me. So which of the two would you purchase knowing this?

Note; I’ll be the one doing everything for her. Putting games, emulation, updating and problem solving if things go south.

Money isn’t the issue, just don’t know which to get.

P.S: was not sure whether piracy is allowed in this community. Sorry in advance if it is not.

    From my experience if you have something working then its fine. I mean if you are going to add the games and add them to the steam menu so she just needs to click on them to play. If she is not expecting to go out and find games and such which I assume she is not given she could not with the switch.
