Can you play Switch games on the Steam Deck?
Short answer - no. Switch games are made for Nintendo's platform, and Steam Deck is all about PC gaming. Mixing the two is like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.

Actually managed to get a few emulated games running on my Steam Deck, but it's a bit of a hassle and definitely not what it's made for. Wouldn't recommend it if you're not into tinkering and potentially bending some rules.
Nope, you can't directly play Switch games on a Steam Deck since they're two totally different platforms with their own exclusive games. But hey, the Steam Deck runs on a version of Linux that supports game emulation, so some tech-savvy folks might find ways to run emulated versions of some Switch games. It's not straightforward, involves a bit of a grey area legally, and definitely not supported by Valve or Nintendo!
