Stardew Valley is a behemoth
My wife and I are actually considering buying steam decks for both of us because the console port for the new update is taking forever.... Why didn't they have the steam deck in 2020 so we could have stayed on our PC saved instead of putting hundreds of hours into Switch saves
Obviously it takes some effort, but if you have an original switch you can pull your save files off of it through jailbreaking tools. I've migrated most of my indie game saves over to my Deck.
I've looked into it and I believe my switch is still one of the easy to jailbreak models. My wife has a lite (and the save files) but I never really looked into how to jailbreak those. The stardew save editors look pretty simple from some research and I will probably attempt to extract our farms if we get decks.
Edit: Modded switches can't go on Nintendo Online correct? If not, buddy of mine has ones so maybe use that and restore from cloud saves and extract, unless that leads to account flagging/deletion.
So for mine, all I needed was an extra MicroSD card and a plastic jumper insert for booting into dev mode.
I can boot into "hacked mode", extract save files, and then shut down, remove the MicroSD, and go right back to normal mode.
Are you me? I've been thinking of trading my Switch for one. Stardew is easily my most played game on it.
It's my main gaming device. I love the thing, and if you take the time to really understand and use the massive amount of control and gyro options it's crazy how good the controls can be for so many different games. Way better than any console, and often nicer than keyboard/mouse. The borderlands games with gyro aiming is the best way to play, hands down. I've also heard high praise on some rts strategy builder games with gyro mouse functions. A genre I didn't think would work well at all without a keyboard and mouse.
We probably put 250 hours in on PC and I think I'm close to 200 on switch. I think my wife just broke 600 on her switch saves so we have some attachments to those farms, but looking into exporting them if we get a deck. Tbh she misses mods at this point after 100% both routes and working on some self imposed restriction farms.
Shit yeah it is. I'm nearing the end of my latest playthrough. I probably only have another 40 hours to go!
