I'm primarily a PC gamer, using both my 4080.rig and a Steam Deck OLED, however I've been considering adding a Switch 2 for the exclusives.

I never really played the Switch Library outside of Metroid Dread and BOTW.

I'm interested in DK Bonanza, Mario Wonder, Zelda BOTW AND TOTK. Are there other exclusives that make the system worth it?

I'm also not sure about the screen. I'm a bit of an OLED/HDR snob tbh. I have a LG G4 OLED TV, Ultrawide OLED gaming monitor and steam deck OLED. Will the quality of the Switch 2 screen be a huge turn off? I've heard mixed opinions.

I'm trying to play Hollow Knight on the Steam Deck but I find the map way too small to be functionally usable.

I tried using the built-in magnifier function but in Hollow Knight specifically, when you turn on the magnifier, it seems to disable both the right thumbstick and trackpad so you can't actually scroll the screen to look at the map.

Is there any way to force this to work?

Trackpad / Suggestions?

I have the 2026 steam controller, I also have a steam deck OLED but to be honest I've never really used the track pads or the gyro all that much.

I'm struggling to find any good use cases for them, aside from the odd time I need to use the desktop. I don't really play RTS games on the steam deck, and if I'm at the PC, I would probably just use my mouse instead of the controller.

In every game I've used gyro, it's always felt stuttery and kind of laggy and never been a great experience. Most of the time I find I have to use joystick emulation which doesn't seem as good. If you use as mouse, it's way smoother but a lot of games seem to have a lot of issues with it switching between input styles. Either UI elements flickering or other issues.

As far as the touch pads, I haven't really found any game that benefits from using them in any particular way.

I'm just wondering if there are any specific use cases you guys have found that you could suggest where the touch pads or gyro would be useful?

I currently play on Hori RAP N Hayabusa, but have been struggling with messy direction inputs a lot.

I wanted to try leverless as they look fun and as I understand can help get cleaner inputs.

I ordered a Haute42 C16. Any tips for transitioning from a stick? I primarily play SF6.
