Roblox with my son. Love it.

I bought mine from uPerfect. Excellent quality. I wouldn’t look beyond their brand. They are awesome.

Lucky you.

Sure! Seems my screen isn’t up for sale anymore. This is the closest I could find without diving too deep: https://a.co/d/01D6h52

Portable, built in battery, plug into the deck with USB-C and you even get touch. Chose if the screen should charge the Deck while plugged in or not. Mostly just plug it with hdmi though and play Mario Kart and Kirby with my son. Has Samsung Dex-support so with one of those phones plugged in you get a laptop like experience. Truly a great buy. Can’t recommend enough.

Do some research though. Make sure you get a screen with touch and battery to get the most out of the screen (touch isn’t good enough to play mobile games but good enough to navigate menus, use YouTube, etc). Stay in the range of 14-16" for it to be portable. And check that your phone is compatible with the screen you buy. Also check the ms so the game experience is good.

Now you can play 4p Mario Kart on mount everest.

Very, very good. Pricing seems okay as well. Glad the specs are the same so games will work on both versions. Saving straight performance upgrades for the next version seems like the right move.

Very interested in upgrading but I can’t justify it to my wallet. I love my Steam Deck as is and often use a portable external screen with it anyhow.

Your points doesn’t make his points invalid. And the other way arround.

Mesh routers are nothing to recommend lightly. Most are a complete headache to set up.

I’m still puzzled you compare soldering circuits 30 years ago with pressing a disk today. Games took a year to one and a half with about 15 people to develop compared to teams of 100 working for years. Like I stated earlier, the electrical bills alone to create the new AAA titles today are probably equal to the entire development budget of the AAA titles 30 years ago. However we twist it, we pay the same or less for games now than we did 30 years ago. A lot of games are even free now if you don’t fall into the pit of buying skins. We are in a good place.

No one was complaining. At all. Yet quite the few of you force this ‘just get a pc’ argument from nowhere. Yes this thing requires an Internet connection when installed. You claiming that your pc doesnt? Nothing here is worse.

I’ve been a pc gamer for almost 30 years but I can also recognise consoles have their place. Some people wanna sit in the sofa and play on their 70" TV with a gamepad with as little care as possible. Sometimes with a friend or with family (even if it’s not as common as with previous gen consoles). Price don’t bother them much. Playing Smash or other co-op games with 4 people on an emulator is not as user friendly as you might think. Controllers sometimes connect weirdly etc.

Worked for me. Saves weere still there after my internal ssd swap. Had my saves on sd card. Fresh install of emudeck found old saves.

How are the possibilities to change the on screen keyboard?

It’s not. Or I wanna see your breakfast in the morning.

The only thing I had issue with was the cable to the battery. For the longest time it felt like I had zero progress removing it. I even started doubting I did it right, then it started moving. Take your time. Also the shielding didn’t fit my ssd. So I had to carefully open it up and wrap it arround. I still never felt I was outside of my comfort zone. And I never do this type of thing. Just take it slow.

Mine didn’t have any issues when I swapped.

Is it now? I don’t hear anything. Gimme an official Xbox Game Pass app tho! Sure it’s easy enough to work arround but official apps are guud!

There are free pc games as well, and paid ones. Free movies, and paid ones. Heck you can probably get a car for free, but most people prefer to pay for one. You can use the free apps all you want.

This is an extremely harsh assessment. But I respect your opinion.

Digital games and physical games are the same price on the Nintendo Switch. They were the same on the Wii U, the Wii as well. Nintendo never stopped selling physical games. It’s the same on PlayStation as well with the same price. At least it was on my Ps4. The larger piece of plastic didn’t cost more in the 90s compared to the smaller piece of plastic in 2023. The manual/handbook also didn’t cost anything noteworthy to produce back then. I really don’t know where you are pulling these costs from.

How is this part of the discussion? What did a SNES cost? This doesn’t matter. Consoles and hardware always costs money. We are talking about the games here. Or do you want to take in to account what a decent TV cost in 1994 as well? And the second gamepad? We can’t compare life as a whole. Saleries. Living cost. Everything matters, yes. But then we can just end the discussion right here and right now because we will never arrive at anything but ifs and buts.
