To me, Nintendo vs Valve is shaping up to be the console war to watch. I go into details as to why Nintendo's push for backwards compatibility makes them more in-line with Valve while at the same time, Valve is making moves to be closer in scope to a Switch competitor. Lenovo adding their handhelds to the list of SteamOS consoles along-side the Steam Deck is a huge move towards Steam being the goto for mobile gaming.
