Thanks to the Nintendo Switch, the Steam Deck, Analogue, and other new devices, the decade-old dream of the perfect portable console is finally coming true.
In 1989, ancient history in the gaming era, Nintendo released a three-and-a-half-minute commercial for its new device. A kid shouts angrily because he has to stop playing games so the family can leave on vacation; the car sags, and its tire deflates when his dad shoves a giant CRT TV into the back seat. “The secret to Nintendo’s success lies in bringing arcade games forward, into the home,” says the jaunty narrator. “Taking it out of the home is another story.
Then, everybody spent the next decade or so being distracted by the rise of the smartphone and still treating their handheld consoles like completely different devices. But it’s different now. Thanks to devices like the Nintendo Switch and Valve’s Steam Deck , there’s now proof in the market that you can have a console that does everything well and makes almost no compromises.
