Fascinated by the consumer who has been wanting to play a bunch of old games portably at higher resolutions and framerates but didn't want a Steam Deck or any other PC handheld and didn't already own an Xbox or PS5.

For games and such, launchers should just adopt Steam's solution. Maybe just tinker a little bit with anticheat to make it compatible, but literally just do like Steam and release a Flatpak that runs games with Proton

Epic we have Heroic Launcher, but it's not an official solution

I wish more corporations were to support their software in Linux. With Flatpak, it's now easier than ever to distribute to every OS out there without much hassle

i don't care what anyone says, i would buy one of these immediately, i have a bunch of custom steam input layouts for my deck controls and it would be nice to have them on desktop/docked deck

also the trackpads are useful you just need some creativity (mouse, scroll wheel, radial menus, etc.)

I couldn’t agree more with how they spoke about the Switch 2 on this video!

Matt mentioning the amount of open options you get having a Steam Deck!
