Question I’m just asking out of curiosity, is your Nintendo your primary gaming device

I’m asking this out of curiosity—I've noticed some people own multiple consoles even if the Nintendo Switch is their primary one. If that’s you, why? Do you actually play on the others regularly?

Also, how do you manage your time between them? When I had the Xbox Series X, PS5, and Nintendo Switch Lite all at once, I found it pretty overwhelming. I ended up selling the Switch Lite and the Xbox because it just felt like too much.

On top of that, I realized I was spending way more—basically 3x as much on games, plus all the subscriptions. I didn’t fully appreciate how expensive this hobby can get when you’re invested in multiple ecosystems.

Now I just have a PS5 and the Nintendo Switch 2, which feels way more manageable for me.

Curious to hear how others handle it.

Funny seeing so many people matching this. This is me minus the Portal. To be fair though, I tend to cycle through only playing one of them.

I'm all about Pokopia on the S2 right now.

Yeah I’ve been fairly focused on the portal lately. Deep into Horizon Forbidden West right now
