This is just talking about games approved through Valve's verification process. There are a lot of games that work that are "unverified", not to mention the entire history of gaming available through emulation.

I agree with most of what you said, especially the multiplayer part. I had a switch almost exclusively to play Mario kart with friends. It's just a much simpler experience on the switch especially with the controllers I prefer to use. The one thing I still disagree on is sharing games. You can share steam games, even triple A titles with friends and family. It's not a easy as just handing them a cart, but how many people still buy physical games anymore with how easy digital distribution is. I know I do, because I'm old. I'm glad I did too since that gave me the ability to give my copy of Mario kart to one of my nieces and my switch to another.
