      If you dont care about high settings at high resolutions in AAA games, then its absolutely the best gaming option out there.

      I do say people should be willing to tinker with the software if they want to get some more obscure, abandoned or emulated titles working though, thats the only caveat.

      I’d advocate for getting one. Last year 70% of my gaming was on the deck, it really has shifted my attitude towards gaming.

        They can’t really keep them in stock, though. I was checking on them shortly before the sale started and the refurbished 64GB LCD models were all out. Now all the refurbished models are sold out.

        It’s just as well, though. Between the Switch 2 and the Deckard, I’ve got some other stuff I might want to waste money on this year.

      I love mine. It’s great in handheld mode with Moonbeam/Sunshine streaming from my gaming desktop, and it shines in docked mode.

      And it’s a very capable Linux desktop too if you want to go that route.

        If streaming in home is all you do, I find lighter/cheaper android handhelds are a better option.
