I keep putting off buying a switch as seems over priced and may be another coming out soon. But seen this site mentioned on another post which did not want to ruin.

The second hand market for switches seems one of a nightmare about joypads lifted screens ! , missing docks, drifting sticks.

But this prices at around £250 for a new one with a game just seem REALLY cheap

From what I can understand they are grey imports so no supplier warranty but as long as have right plugs and does switch use use usb c or something seems quite a bargain ? Anyone actually used them ?


This is an interetsing read....


Thanks.

Never used them, but I'd buy a switch new if possible or test the hell out of it first. The ports on then are chronically bad, you end up with them not docking and charging or vice versa if you're not careful with them.

Interested to see how this pans out though if you go for it!

After getting ripped off on a drill a few months ago i always check genuine reviews now. They seem ok at 68% :-


I wish I had looked at this before I ordered my wife's birthday gifts from the absolute muppets at boots ! (Linked for example) I will never se them for anyting ever again.

Their prices do seem too good to be true. I get that they are grey imports, but still don't understand how they can get stock so cheaply, unless there's some kind of tax dodge involved.

the main problem with the steamdeck and the swicth is would I really play it a lot , which woudl justify the prices.

Someone kindly supplied me with some switch roms so hoping I can see what the games are like on my pc , although only has a 1030 card in it.

Be interetsting to see what mario kart is like compared to Mario kart in Teknoparrot, which does run on my SFF, Cheers

Well you can always sell on if it lacks use, but the beauty of the Steamdeck is you can play just about anything, modern, retro, other systems, firefox, youtube, etc
