I've been having a hard time choosing between buying a switch or a ps4. The only thing that's holding me back from buying a ps4 is that the switch is portable. I like the games in ps4 more and it's a lot cheaper. What is more worth it?

This is very true, I thought I would use the switch more because of the same reason with OP, but it's more just collecting dust

Just get a steam deck you can play everything on that thing and the price is a steal! You can emulate the switch on it meaning all switch games are free! Steam games are also very cheap in the sale. So its a win win!

I have a switch and series x. I haven't touched my switch in over 6 months. The switch is the console where most people leave it and play it maybe once every couple of months or on a road trip.

PS4. It's not even a question buddy. PS4 wins by so much it'd be like me trying to race Usain Bolt.

No lies detected. I've got a ps4, hoping to get the series X just after Christmas, see if there are any bundles. Don't feel the ps5 is that worth it at the moment when me and my ps4 have unfinished business 😅

With the addition of the PS5 I’d personally wait till it becomes a little easier to purchase. in the meantime get the switch because of the unlikely new console to replace the switch anytime soon. Then again that’s just what I’d do.

Not even a ps5? I would get the switch then

If you like the PS4 games the most, I think you should go for that route (if portability is not essencial for you). Moreover, you will gain an extense library of games, so you do not worry until PS5 will decrease its price, eventually.

PS4 for sure since switch after a year or so the controllers get drift but a ps4 controller gets drift after 8 years and the switch battery life drains faster after a couple of years

Get a Playstation. If you're dead set on portable gaming get a Steamdeck.

Nintendo's exclusives selection isn't worth the cost of a Switch. Most of the games available for the switch are cross-platform games and indie games.

So, unless you're dead set on only playing a Switch once or twice a year when a nee Nintendo gsme rsrely comes out go for it.

My Switch has been collecting dust ever since I beat Calamity Warriors.

Look at the game catalog for each that’s out now and coming in the next year, from there you should be able to tell what console you want more.
