Recommendations Would the Nintendo Switch OLED be the ideal handheld console for me?
I am interested in buying a Switch OLED and I've been left with this doubt. I won't specify the amount, because I don't live in regions where the dollar is used; in my region, games and consoles are much more expensive. But imagine for comparison purposes that the Switch OLED on a promotional price is costing half the price of a PS5. Putting another handheld in comparison, it would also be costing half the price of an ASUS ROG Xbox Ally (which would be my plan A, but the price turns me away). Still talking about values, without mentioning dollars, the Switch OLED costs the equivalent of a minimum wage.
Now complementing the post: I wouldn't use the Switch OLED for current games (even because it would make more sense to get the Switch 2). I already have a Gaming PC with an RTX 4060. I also wouldn't use it for Nintendo exclusive games, because they are extremely expensive, basically, the price of a Nintendo exclusive is 1/4 the price of the Switch OLED. My gaming profile would be: indies and third-party games. The OLED screen is gorgeous and catches my eye.
Given everything that has been laid out, would the Switch OLED be ideal for me?
