My question is mostly for games available on Steam that you would still prefer to play on Switch. I imagine performance should be better on the deck for native/proton games, but there might be something else I am missing.

Local multiplayer games and Switch exclusives.

Switch is the my best option for local multiplayer games because I don't want to explain what a steam deck is or how I got Mario Kart to run on it. Everyone at the party knows what a switch is and you can easily round up a few drunk friends (nerds or casuals) to play some kart or smash just by showing people you brought one. :)

Would anyone even care if you just start up the game?
