I'm really excited by this. I sold my nintendo switch a while ago and I miss handheld gaming while going on trips. and also the fact that alot of games will probably be ported to linux because of this. what do you all think?

Honestly I think it will be a flop.

All will depend on the pricing. But it will be hard to go against the big three.

Head's up, this post is 2 years old. It was referencing the Steam Deck, which is actually successful

I've never been more happy that someone was wrong, sorry it had to be you

[-] valkyrie@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago

I’m happy it was me too, I love my steam deck!

I want it to succeed, but it probably won't.

We were so wrong, yay!

I don't believe his expectations about the vr thing but overall mote linux consoles seems pretty cool. I haven't had a chance to try the steam deck out so if this has a reasonable price I would want to buy it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
