    Yeah, I can plug a Nintendo Switch into a display but that doesn’t make it a desktop.

      Someone doesn’t know what the Steam Deck actually is.

      No, because a Nintendo console is not a PC. Steam Deck and the other SteamOS devices have a literal “Enter Desktop Mode” feature and desktop use is (as seen in the promotional picture) an advertised feature.
