I really wanted to get a steam deck when they first came out, but I decided not to bc I wasn't gaming much at the time. Then I got a SD OLED right when they came out, and I've been playing it pretty much every day since then. I love playing retro games and emulating on it since its OLED screen is amazing, and I also do Steam Remote Play to it from my gaming PC and Chiaki to remote play from my PS5. Like another poster said, the Steam Deck has also been a game changer for getting me playing older games from my backlog. It's perfect for playing games on the couch while watching TV or a movie as well.
