>>108624025>maid computer thread
>>108624493Wat?
>>108624489Happy enough. Bought the Win 1 when it released as an early adopter with all it's faults, bought GPD ever since, inc Win 2 and 4.
>>108624025I rarely play games, even less so games on the go
>>108624025DSi XL
>>108624609no one cares
>>108624646Go masturbate in the corner, cretin
>>108624654didn't ask
>>108624025they all suckjust use a laptop and a controllerif that's too much, just emulate on your android phone or get a proper console, like a ds or vitanever understood this overpriced shit
i spent all that money on a top of the line handhold gaming device just so I could play Stardew Valley modded
>>108624913you sound very, very poor
Still rocking a Steam Deck OLED.Just beat Dark Souls 2 on it today.The big advantage it has is the trackpads.I can go from playing a boomer shooter, to playing a 4X game, to playing a Zachtronics kino.Honestly, games haven't really improved since Elden Ring (which the Steam Deck runs just fine). I see no reason to upgrade. I almost built a desktop recently with my tax return but thought, "what's the fucking point?" Theres almost no games worth playing that cant run on it.
>>108624913UMPCs are the future chud.I used my Steam Deck as my gaming PC and daily driver for over a year exclusively. It handled everything. I can also lay in bed or on the couch comfortably while playing. Cant do that with a laptop. They provide a console experience with a desktop mode for when you need to fuck with a web browser (mods, emulator setup, etc).Also imagine destroying your phone battery playing games on it. Imagine putting up with shitty android emulators. Imagine gaming on a laptop that isnt using a strix halo chip. Almost every single gaming laptop is dog shit that overheats.Again, they are the future.
>>108624983>I can also lay in bed or on the couch comfortably while playing. Cant do that with a laptop.I have done this with a laptop for like 15 years. You just put a little platform for the laptop and mouse on your lap and lay down against some pillows. I played css almost exclusively on a gateway gaming laptop in bed.

>>108624025Vapor Dick, Switch 2, 3DS.
>>108624918these squares have shit ass ergonomics, they're heavy and their games aren't designed for the form factoron top of that they have tiny screensif you are travelling long distance, you can just set up with a laptop and controller and you will have a better experience than with a steamdeckif you are travelling short distance, why would you bother whipping out a steamdeck?seems like it's just trying to sell a dream to people with far too little free time>>108624983>I can also lay in bed or on the couch comfortably while playing.

You are the one coping. This year I've beaten Dark Souls 2, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, and almost 1CC'd Mushihimesama while traveling and enjoying festivals around Asia.

>>108625443I don't m8
>>108624025Switch because I'm a poorfag and like kid games

>>108624025Gameboy emulator on my phone.I don't get the appeal of playing non-handheld oriented / 'real' games on a handheld device.That's what PCs and consoles are for.
>>108625596> $750 gameboyI can't wait to take it to work or play it while my wife is talking.
>>108624025I don't understand the usecase for these if you already have a PCWhy would you force yourself to play games on a shitty tiny screen, are you really that addicted that you need video games on the go 24/7?
>>108625792say you never gamed on the toilet without saying you never gamed on the toilet
>>108625792Why would I want to sit at a desk to play when I could be in bed with my handheld?
>>108624093That legion is reety good, but the touch pad is pitiful.
>>108624609Very valuable contribution to a thread for console owners. I suggest roping.
>>108624025new 3ds>>108625792loads better time than scrooling shitty ragebait social media.also bunch of stuff that you can't play on pc on this.
>>108624025I have a legion go as a windows machine, 2 steam decks, and a switch 1.
>>108624025Only have a switch lite and new 3ds xl, was thinking about getting the legion go s (go 2 is too expensive $2k wtf)
>>108624502>>108625567It's an unc meme, don't worry about it.
>>108624025Steam Deck and Switch 2. But I rarely even use the Switch 2 in handheld mode.
>>108624093>Legion Go S Z1 extremeThis is by far the best handheld atm.
my Switch Lite runs L.A. Noire and Naruto × Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections.
I recently moved house, and my new commute to work involves roughly 2.5 hours a day of sitting on a train with me bored out of my mind; tried bringing along my old 3DS and PS Vita but the games don't interest me (or rather, I can't get invested because of the small screen + flickering sunlight fucking with my ability to see what I'm doing).Is it worth buying one of those emulation handhelds with an OLED screen from Ayn, Retroid, et al.? Also considered a Steam deck, which might be nice, but it'd be too big for how much space I have to work in with the train seats
I rarely play handheld but an Atmosphere NSW with Moonlight and a PSVita.
>>108626592I'm enjoying mine
>>108624025I don't
>>108624025The only one that matters
>>108627144didn't ask
Ambernic RG Cube for retro gayming.
>>108624025>Which gaming handheld does /g/ use?Steam Deck & Switch 2I got the Steam Deck years ago and I originally planned to never get Nintendon't again, because Emulation works so well... but I still got a Switch 2 for online Nintendon't titles and Switch 2 exclusives.
I recently homebrewed my 3DS XL and I'm pretty happy with it. Can play basically everything 3DS and earlier which works for me.
>>108624025I use my tablet attached to a telescopic controller, great setup to emulate with CRT shaders.
>>108624025My android phone with emulators. Anything that doesn't run on that should be played on a console or PC anyways.
>>108627985Kickstand on the protector so I can stand it up while I play with a wireless controller.
>>108624025I play on a Big Desktop PC with my wife.(I have a Deck, I barely use it. Honestly, I was going to use it as a Test Bench and dip my toes into Linux land, but the atomic update system killed that and then Windows killed itself which just moved my timeline up. So very little need for a test bench.)I just hope the Deck 2 has better ergonomics, even the original Steam Controller needed more varied testing by Valve to get ergonomics right.
I love my Steam Deck but I'd get the rog Xbox one if it didn't cost twice as much. The Steam deck feels cheap in hand compared to my switch 2 and the windows handhelds.
>>108624025Switch 2 in the Dock all the time
>>108624025I have a nonOLED switch that I don't use. It's getting a spicy pillow that I should change. The mobile device I play most on is an m4 ipad, mostly gacha games.
>>108624025'eck
>>108624025my smartphone with steamlink.
>>108624025Odin 2 Pro.
>>108628036The docking idea of the switch is novel, tables form factor is questionable. A dockable clamshell would likely be with optional joycons/wiimotes would likely optimal
switch 2 and an iphone 15 pro max in a razer kishi v3 pro for emulation
>>108624025I do this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jUv03MigUyw
>>108628125same iphone + kishi combo. great combo. if i need more i just stream from my gaming computer via moonlight

>>108628610based 15pm and kishi v3 pro enjoyer
>>108625853I don't get why the retards at Lenovo didn't just add the fucking Thinkpad clitmouse in that position, it would work like a charm.
+ my chinkphone + retroarch
>>108624025Modded n3DSXL, and I recently picked up an Anbernic RG35XX I found in a second-hand shop which has been fun to play around in. If you already have a modded 3DS you don't really need something like this but the screen quality is A+
At multiple points in my life I have invested time in a handheld. Like I have a modded Vita with a ton of shit on it that is in theory very cool but then I find I don't actually enjoy playing on handhelds unless I'm somewhere where it's the only option and I barely leave my house now that I work from home. A big screen, full size controller and not having to either hunch down or hold hold my arms up is just much more comfortable.
>>108624025I have an old Thinkpad tablet by my toilet I play NES/SNES/Gensis on while taking a shit.
I mostly play Switch and PSP games on the Odin 3.
>>108629457Forgot pic
>>108624025wish I could sell my legion go to one of you anons I bought a switch 2 and never looked back
>>108625937Sorry dude, I own a Steam Deck and even playing offline games with all data connections turned off, there is no fucking way you get 12 hours of battery life.
I was gonna buy one but I bought speakers instead ....
jailbroken ps vita
>>108629469Based and "can-puter" pilled.Hillary Clinton had an entire server rack in her shitter.
One for every day of the week!
>>108624025Switch 2 when playing with my sonI don't like consoles and ia the first i ever owned.Switch because my son likes mario games
>>108624025handheld gaming is for literal manchildren
>>108630530wipe your tears
>>108624048flippy beppy i sold my vita and 3DS xl recently though and only kept my steam deck
no face in the shot this time no one needs to see that
>>108624025Should I get a used switch to mod or get a used phone with a snapdragon 8gen2 if I want to turn them into emulation machines? Budget under 200.
A Game Boy most likely.

>>108627859it looks nice
>>10862402513” iPad Pro + ps5 controller + AC outletI can play genshin 120 fps, and remote into my steam pc and ps5 from the other side of town
>>108630878but can you whip it out at werk
>>108630886Yeah I keep it on the Magic Keyboard (so I can charge and have the controller plugged in). Just hide the controller behind my monitor and activate side car temporarily on my production Mac to make people think I’m using it as a second screen
>>108624025Deck OLED and Switch 2I still have my n3DS XL and Vita 1000 ready to go but haven't used them as much recently And this thread reminds me that I have an old Game Gear that needs its caps replaced but I've been putting it off for nearly a decade

I got a good deal on a ROG Ally. I'd rather have bought a LeGo Z1E but I don't have much reason to upgrade at this point. I prefer using chinkhelds when I don't need the performance.
Trim UI Smart Pro S. Its just ok, was a pain to set up since i ran into problems with stock firmware and had to use something else and dreamcast games often dont work for some reason. Not very good buttons or thumbstick either but you get what you pay for
>>108624025I don't have autism so none of them
>>108633058It's more autistic to restrict yourself to your desk
Steam deckFor some reason, a bunch of old games I wanted to play don't work on my desktop (batman AA, prototype) but run without any need for patch or thing on my deck
>>108624025My phone + steam link for nowI also have a controller thing for my phone.
>>108624025>Steam DeckI only use it for Megabonk these days though.
>>108624025Switch OLED/lite recently Steam deck oled
>>108630376I've gotten 10 without dying on the OLED but yeah I don't think you can get that on the LCD
>>108624025The ally is not half an inch thicc
>>108624025ASUS has bad battery lifeSteam deck oled has linux (bad for games compatibility) and very outdated hardwareLenovo go 2 has noisy fansI'd probably pick the legion go s tbqh
