This is definitely the year of the Steam deck

Combining two sentences from the article is fun :

VGC’s Platform of the Year is Nintendo Switch [which] will turn seven years old.

That's so whack. In that case my "platform of the year 2023" is the gameboy

[–] inlandempire@jlai.lu 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Mine is all the ones I emulated on my Deck

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

So... Switch?

[–] macaroni1556@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

Platform of the year is the PS2 objectively till someone takes the crown.

Tnough it may literally happen with the Switch, just need to sell another 25M units.

This is a ridiculous award to begin with, since platforms are long-running things and this is just a popularity contest for the past year.
