Switch V1 still worth it in 2024?

I currently play most games thru emulators but been wondering whether it is worth it to get the Switch V1 version for handheld.

my plan would be putting the roms onto the Switch and then play handheld (is this possible?)

Playing when traveling, a few hours in bed before sleeping or cozy up next to the heather in the evening seems nice. However is it still worth around €300 euro for it, may I have your opinion on the matter?

For me it is like a low cost steam deck, I can play AAA games anywhere with moonlight over the internet and watch my favorite shows on jellyfin (also play switch games), and if I need a pc to edit documents, browse lemmy, etc I boot into my Android SD card.

So, if you want to tinker with a robust and very well supported system, yes, give it a try!
- How do you use jellyfin on your switch?
  
  It's in the hbappstore, it's called Switchfin, here's the repo

  With port forwarding or Upnp, you can also use a vpn like ZeroTier, here's the link
  
  Thanks! Sounds interesting, I'll give a look to it!
