I just bought a Steam Deck OLED for my 15 year old son for Christmas. Should I give it to him, in the box, on Christmas, or should I do anything ahead of time? Any massive updates to do ahead of time, or just let him figure it out? He is currently a PC gamer, and spends tons of money on Steam. Is it easy to transfer over those games? I guess I’m asking if I should try to load anything on it ahead of time or not.

    He is currently a PC gamer, and spends tons of money on Steam.

    In this case, he’ll probably want to do all the setup himself. If he had no steam account and no games I might suggest getting it setup for him, but in this case he’ll certainly know what he’s doing in a general sense and want to personalize it to suit his tastes.
