Why don't you own one?
ayn thor cheaper and has 2 screens
I already do tho
I don't have a special edition OLED because I already had an LCD one.Kinda wanted the Cum one but I only found out about it after it sold out.
NEVER BUY CHEAP CHINK CHARGERS>NEVER BUY CHEAP CHINK CHARGERSMy ‘eck acked because one caused a power surger and I had to get a repair from assurion because the warranty expired
>>728498784I have a launch unit. Waiting for the Steam Frame so I can replace it. Portable ARM computer that can do everything in one tiny device. The perfect lunch break handheld and it won't take up 90% of the free space in my backpack. I won't be using those VR wands tho, but the kino Steam Controller 2. Gonna play indie games using the FEX emulation layer while watching videos in a virtual desktop.
>>728498784I have one. Will upgrade to Steam Deck 2 Oled when it drops
>>728498784I'm not a fat hairy bear
>>728498784I already own the superior product.
>>728500563>lunch breakI'm just picturing this retard in a walmart breakroom basedfacing while in VR in the corner
I do.Just have no time for it, to busy at work, hence why everything is so dusty.
>>728498784because it doesn't fit in my fucking pocketgo back to the drawing board and make a real handheld, not an overgrown tablet
>>728500832>walmartI work in a Datacenter as the lead infrastructure engineer. All of my team have Steamdecks. They'll immediately want to get one too. Small, light, powerful, portable. The perfect "handheld." Sometimes we play retro games on a 8840HS miniPC in our conference room on the 110" screen though. Typically we just play Steamdeck. One of the guys is in his 40s and watches retro cartoons on the 55" screen in the main offices. My office is a private one facing the actual server room and I usually have my Steamdeck output to the 50" monitor on my offices' wall.
>>728500965The logistics of it would be fucked, but, I really would like a Dreamcast controller maybe with a touch pad, but definitely gyro.I feel like it'd be a really nice controller for pc gaming.
>>728498784Anon what do you think I'm scrolling this shithole for as I wait for Monster Hunter to download
>>728498784Thor/Odin Portal blows it out of the water.
>>728501060Sure.
>>728498784waiting for the upgraded hardware model.tried my friend's OLED one and it was great.
>>728498784But i do
>>728501060Sure you do bud, and let me guess? Your dad works at nintendo and you're earning $100k a year just to slack off?
>>728498784I have it, just use it in niche circumstances at this point. Tomorrow I'm gonna be in the hospital for a few hours so it'll be another opportunity for me.One thing I've noticed is it takes a while to start up now (cut it from the video here, total time was 39 seconds before the startup movie). The battery health is still 100% but maybe something else is starting to degrade.>>728500474I use the Valve adapter for everything, only use it to charge my 'eck and I also use it to charge my phone and headphones.
>>728501546Genuine question as someone who owns a Steam Deck, what exactly are you waiting for an "improved hardware" Steam Deck?
I bought a switch instead.I regret it immensely.
>>728501674just a newer APU really. the thing is solid otherwise imo.
>>728501625My dad is a retired pawn broker. I'm self-made. Weird cope anon. I work hard and am self-made.
>>728502142I guess maybe I should be more specific, what software are you waiting to be able to run on the Steam Deck?
>>728500474chink chargers are just asking for a housefire, deck or not
>>728498784I already have a PC at home.
>>728498784my sugar mama gave me one when they first came out, the one with the blue logo on the case, i guess it was more expensive. I got drunk and smashed it. She also got me a meta quest 3 and i got drunk and smashed it. I gotta stop smashing stuff. Both of those things either had poor build quality or my grip strength is strong because they broke under my grasp, not from flinging at a wall
>>728498784the jews
Also I guess while we're on the topic, what would be a good alternative charger/power supply for the Steam Deck, I've sort of been looking around for something more compact that I can detach the cable from to carry in a bag a bit easier. I've heard some Anker one was apparently fairly okay but I'm not really sure what one they're talking about.They don't really have useful names.
>>728502659If you're gonna get any charger/charging station that's not from Valve, definitely go Anker. Only brand where I think anyone can safely say won't destroy your system
>>728502361Retard drunks like you need to kys
>>728502263switch emulation at stable full speed for one.also ff7 rebirth is only barely playable on the current 'eck as far as i've heard.mostly i just personally don't need more than my vita and moonlight streaming to my laptop right now.
>>728503081not anytime soon
>>728498784I don't like handhelds for 80% of the games I play.
>>728498784I do. I play it so much that I've already had to replace the battery once.
>>728501625$100k is not even noteworthy nor worth calling "six figures", recalibrate your expectations of what constitutes a larp
i got pic rel because it was only $100, not baby sized, and all i want to do is play ps1 and gba anywayit can even play ps2 games if i connect a bluetooth controller to it
>>728502361Here's a rabbit, Lenny. Please keep it safe until I get back.
>>728502361Stop lying on the internet
>>728498784I was thinking of getting one when it came out but I didn't want to spend the money. I'll buy one once the steam deck 2 comes out
>>728503438Average income in the US is only $60k. $100k isn't as much as it was a decade ago, but it's still noteworthy to the majority of people you retarded LARPer.
>>728498784Own the OG Deck and rotate it out with my Switch 2 which replaced my Switch 1.
>>728498784Was looking at handhelds. The screen size of the Deck was what killed it for me. The Oled is $550 for worse performance and a worse screen than $700 gaming laptops with an RTX 5050 were offering this past Black Friday. I went with a laptop. I don't need to be able to game on a train or anything.
>>728503597reduced to a fibrous powder
>>728503641all you gotta do is be hot and walk around los angeles, women will come to you. Also you gotta be into older women. I like them older, and they appreciate I'm not just in it for money. They know they turn me on, and I know they don't get much attention for being older.
>>728503857I mean you can still game on a train if it has tables. Same with airplanes too. Steam Deck is more mobile, but not by much and with how much more powerful yet cost effective laptops are, it's just not a good proposition in 2025.
>>728503681now filter out the burger flippers and cart pushers
>>728501625I work at home in a flyover state and make 100k a year monitoring backup jobs lmao
I'm with other anons, I'd like one but at this point I've waited long enough I might as well keep waiting for the deck 2. The deck 1 can easily handle ps2 emulation, right? I have a decent pc already so I'm pretty sure my major use case is emulating console games on the couch. And lighter pc games, maybe finish silksong or something.
>>728504230Fairly recently I played through Ratchet and Clank 1-3 on mine.Keep in mind PS2 emulation even if it's a lot better these days can be a bit fucky.
>>728498784I HAVE ONE OMG!!!While the bull is taking care of the physical part of the wifes mental healthI like to look up cooking videos on mine! Like binging with babish!Otherwise its just AMAZEBALLZ to browse reddit on the couch!
>>728498784I already have a good PC, so if I were to get a handheld it would be something quite a bit smaller, probably mostly for retro and indie games. The deck is fucking huge, it has to feel ridiculous to hold, like a tablet.
>>728498784Because the LE was out of stock.
The soc is too weak for a lot of modern games and those that do run have to be set to abysmal settings.Even a switch 2 mogs the shit out of it if done well.Cyberpunk being a prime example.A deck 2 might be interesting though.
>>728498784I own an Odin 2 Mini and I probably won't get anything else beyond that unless a new handheld comes out that's the same size.I know the Retroid Pocket 6 is arriving but that's not much of a significant upgrade.
>>728505810>it has to feel ridiculous to holdI used to think the same thing until I got one. It's a lot more ergonomic. You've got some nice handles to grip it, like a male shortstack.
>>728498784I'm trying to pay off some debts so all my money's going to that.
>>728498784cause i have a gaming pcif my depression cures and i actually enjoy vidya again, i might buy one.
Weak, Should be $400 at most rather than $600 for the performance and absolute weak ass APU. That's all consumer handheld gaming ever was, a scam because companies know the tech right now isnt there yet to deliver even 800p60fps gaming yet. Deck cant keep a locked 60fps on witcher 3, a 10 year old game right now, but go and pay $600, LOL.Handhelds are a muh meme until ryzen AI meme chips become prevalent and cheaper(They won't). If you buy this thing you're an idiot. You can buy a 9070XT GPU or so many more things for this anemic piece of garbage.
>>728498784>have steam deck>damage one of the buttons doesnt work anymore>valve's only solution for me is to ship it to usa and pay 150usd and then ship it back>with duties and the 150, and shipping, I'll be in the hole like at least 250usd probablyFuck valve. Im in fucking canada, what can't they authorize some repair shops here?
>>728498784the steam deck is in an awkward spot for me, it just doesn't make sensei already have a pc and a hacked switch, so i dont need it for pc games, and i dont need it for couch gaming via moonlight, and honestly when the switch is old and tired i think it will be replaced with a slim and light tablet and one of those extending controller grips rather than another actual gaming device like a switch or any of those handheld pc's like the steam deck
>>728506315They were out of LEs!!
it runs faggy linux and is incompatible with 90% of what id useif it literally just ran windows it would be perfect
>>728510179I slept on mine and fucked the thumbstick up, how'd you break a button?
>>728505810RP6 is the perfect candidate for SteamOS (ARM). Hopefully the bootloader is unlocked so it can be flashed soon after launch. Android is a useless OS.
>>728510759I whipped my duvet up to look under it for something and launched my deck onto the floor from an apex of like 1-1.5meters. It landed on the right bumper and the bumper mashes down instead of clicking down, now. And after using its few times, it stops registering.
I do.I own a Rog Ally X too
>>728498784Loki max is more powerful (amd 6800u) and runs windows. I don’t buy underpowered hardware.
>>728511920If you're buying a handheld for "power" you're an idiot.
>>728512053Well I did and it works exactly how I wanted it to….maybe you have a skill issue?
