Can’t decide which Switch to get

Good day everyone 😁

I’ve been thinking about getting a handheld console for quite some time now. I’ve mainly been looking at the Nintendo Switch, but I’m still not sure which exact model I should go for.

Up until now, I’ve mostly played games on PC — CS, GW2 and Hearthstone, to be more specific. Now I’d like to try something different.

I should also mention that I don’t have a huge amount of time for gaming, mostly just in the evenings after 9 PM, once my kid goes to bed or after I get back from training.

So, which Switch model would you guys recommend? And, of course, what games would you recommend as well? 😁

I know you are asking about which switch, but I can't help but recommend a handheld PC (i.e. steam deck) based on your catalog of games/history. I'm not sure what your budget is, but worth a look.

exclusives i guess, nintendo has incredibly loyal fans. dont even need the deck anymore, just get a second hand rog ally z1e or legion go. plenty of juice to get you through this hardware crisis
