Steam Deck
Players who bring up Steam Deck mostly praise it.
Part of that comes from it being an original Lego property and not a property like DC, Marvel, or Star Wars, but it's so hard to care to collect a character named "Dan Something" or "Sleepyhead" (yes those are real names of characters in the game) and not want to shut off the steam deck.
