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.

    don’t worry about emulation? Just let her use it the way Gaben intended.

    Well if you had read the comments a bit, you would’ve read another comment of mine;

    True, true but most games she likes are emulation. The Switch games, a PS2 game and Cemu (Zelda).

    Anyway, my main intention was to get the Switch 2 so she could play Tears of the kingdom + Mario and Yoshi games that she likes.
