I think to the “early adopter” crowd, the people like me who where huffing Nintendo “NX” leaks back in 2016, the more “core” audience of people from the ages of late teens to however old James Rolfe is now.

Those people will probably buy a steam deck before a switch 2. There are a lot of them.

Though not as many people as there are like my ex-sister-in-law and her new bf who put together have 4 kids including my niece. The Linux PC I built them to make sure their kids had a good puter is enough trouble. I don’t see them even considering them for their kids.
