I got mine like a month or two ago and it’s by far my favorite device. I’ll keep buying steam decks for as long as they make them.

I’m not a big online multiplayer person, which I’ve been told makes me the model audience for it. My impressions have been nothing but positive for the six months I’ve owned mine. I haven’t had any issues with games either, which compared to the last Linux laptop I used is just wow. I’ve been playing Mortal Kombat 11 this week and the graphics it call pull off are impressive given its footprint. If a 2 comes out I’m definitely getting it day one.

I can’t believe how long the battery life is when playing Wii games on dolphin.

Like how can I play for hours and still have so much space left over?

Haha right? I’ve got an embarrassing amount of hours in animal crossing and Kirby Air Ride and neither makes the fan even turn on outside of the initial shader compilation.
