Yeah, I think it is going to be that big.

LoL! Lemming!okay I am going to order one now
I used to have a GPD Win 2 and still have a RG280V. They are great, and can play DOS games, but the joystick mouse-emulation is janky. So having the trackpads opens up a bunch of old games.
December 2021.Aren't these going to start being available Q2 of 2022? XD
Ah. I thought I saw screenshots with Q2 2022.December 2021.
You did. If you order one now it's backlogged to Q2 2022.Ah. I thought I saw screenshots with Q2 2022.
ahhh. I gotcha.You did. If you order one now it's backlogged to Q2 2022.
The gyro thing could be interesting. Wouldn't work well for every game, but I'd love to play some chill walking simulators and looking around like a makeshift VR.
Also, the track pads will be great for emulating old DOS or Windows games that rely on the mouse.

It's one of the first things I disable in botw switch. I hate it. That said, it is great for some things.Anyone who owns WiiU can tell that Gyro is great. Even though the Gyro on WiiU controller is old, drifts and you have to recenter it now and then it helps so much with aiming compared to just a stick. It is still no mouse but it gets close.
I could see myself wasting way to much time on games like Civ. lolYeah, I probably wouldn't use the Deck for the latest and greatest games, but lots of great older games sitting in the backlog waiting to get played.
I have not even considered that yet. Oh, this could be bad for productivity.I could see myself wasting way to much time on games like Civ. lol
I might actually consider it.
Since having my first child, my PC gaming has taken a major hit, and I find myself sitting on the couch play Switch or something like that more and more often versus sitting in my office on my computer.
Bringing PC gaming to handheld could be fucking awesome.
Definitely read titties.I've got a lot of indie titles I want to run through on the train/plane
I almost get one to play a few Tower Defense Games on a motorcycle camping trip. Then again, think that may defeat the purpose of said trip.
It's an intriguing little device, and I'm planning to get one eventually here as well.Awesome! Really think Steam Deck is one of the best things to happen for PC gaming and Linux in several years.
I loved the PSP as well, for other reasons...I've always loved portable systems. But I'd have to say the best of all time was the original PSP.
It could play 3D games that looked almost console quality (well a little less, but on the small screen it was good enough).
You could play movies. It was small. The screen was amazing. It was so good. The first portable system that didn't feel like it was a lesser experience.

It made me money. I brought broken ones off eBay, fix them up and sell them in my high school.
I still have mine from 2008 (blue Madden edition) that i bought for deployment entertainment. My 6 year old loves the thing when he gets video game time.I've always loved portable systems. But I'd have to say the best of all time was the original PSP.
