Just use your phone. Free.
Yeah… Nah. Talking about AAA gaming here.
@Mondorock: Ah yes who can forget such AAA Switch titles as…*checks notes*…Animal Crossing.
Anyway, back to playing GTAV and RDR2 on my Deck.
@Tacooo: I'm going to have to come Mondorock's defence here. First-party Nintendo games are AAA games. Even Animal Crossing. They're in a different category, sure.
I just bought a Switch. The Zelda series are a masterclass in gaming design. Same with Mario. Same with Pokemon.
But also yes, I would love to be able to play Red Dead, GTA, Uncharted, Last of Us, etc on the go.
I just want to be able to find the time to play everything I want to.
@BadGiraffe: I just couldn't play rdr2 and AAA games on handheld .
I prefer my UW OLED with headphones and 160 fps to enjoy my games
Handheld is for platformers and chill games
@Tacooo: Is it getting hot in here…… Fhew, looking at my PS Vita…..
@Tacooo: Try Prince of Persia the Lost Crown. Kept me busy for 30+ hours on my Switch.
How long does the battery last?
For absolutely nothing at all you can stop posting the same stupid thing on every Steam Deck post and just let people enjoy what they like instead of trying to justify your own purchase.
🤭 And today for $49.95*, we’ll even throw in a plank-walk for @FujinShu, the sharks are hungry brother 🌊🦈
*T&Cs apply, 5 payments to me of $9.99 also available, sarcasm sold separately. Only humans were harmed in production.
Honestly I'd prefer steam deck, given the performance on the go is actually better on steam deck, and there's the better screen, better software, better ergonomic, and battery life….
Like, performance on the go and battery is everything for these type of device…. If on battery performance is the same then it doesn't make a difference….
It's not like I don't have a gaming PC/Laptop/PS5 or even a switch already…What are you even talking about? You mentioned all these great comparative features but not even the product. 😂
He's talking about the newest Kindle.
Can it play farcry?
close to what i paid for standard 512gb a year ago…that was around $1010 including shipping.
So the wii u tablet is cool now I guess 😂
Can someone comment please, a fair amount of my games library are from origin, and EPIC - esp those I’d like to play on the Deck - I know it’s possible to play these using PC mode but can someone tell me if it’s a frustrating process, or is installing Heroic/Lutrix a pretty plug and play and painfree process and once done, is it instant play into game on/off for these non steam platforms ?? Because although its supposedly “easy” for some tech savvy people, running arcade emulators on my desktop has been such a difficult and annoying process with incomplete files, data dumps, .exe and game files suddenly disappearing, game settings resetting each time, that I find sometimes it’s taking me more time fiddling with settings than actually playing the game, and I want the Deck to be a simple turn on, click and play, turn off affair.
Appreciate anyone’s opinions on thisCan't comment on Origin but Epic is easy as.
I use NonSteamLauncher
https://github.com/moraroy/NonSteamLaunchers-On-Steam-Deck
Install the Epic Game Store in desktop mode, run it in console mode and use it as you would the Windows version!
It's that simple!
Great tip, thanks!
Can the Legion Go be plugged into a monitor (and mouse) and be used as a Windows PC ?
I said it last post and ill say it again, this thing is just getting cheaper every week. I would be suprised if it hits 1k with ebay discounts within 2 months
would
Wouldn't.
It's only been out in Australia since January and we haven't even had a big sale event yet. If you can wait, it'll definitely hit under $1000.
$1099 is still a great price right now.
yeah i meant wouldnt. It's a great price indeed and lowest its been so far. I have been keeping my eyes on the price for this for months and its just getting cheaper and cheaper.
This thread has been awesome to give me some ideas on other games to play on the deck. Reaching the conclusion of Valkyria Chronicles now which I couldnt get into on my PC but has been a winner on the deck.
Really interested in giving Dave the Diver a go.
Definitely play Dave the Diver on the steam deck!
Hmm I also have Valkyria…
Anyone have the dock or tried using the docking feature? What is it like and and it's it as easy as using the Nintendo Switch (regarding docking) or is there more to it?
Struggled hard deciding between the ROG Ally and this but decided to pull the trigger on the Steamdeck. I just don't think I can use a non-OLED display these days!
Can you play PlayStation remote play on this ?
Oh wow! Any personal experience? Trying to work out if I will get a better experience using the ps portal v steam deck
I have both.
Picture quality = Steam Deck. OLED is just too good.
Haptics = Portal.
If you want to play outside your home Wifi, it requires a bit of setup.

Are steam games cheap?
Yep.
hey guys i dont have a pc I'm thinking of buying one for gaming but price is an issue. should I get this instead? the games I'm planning on using it for are not that graphically demanding. can I use it as a PC connected to a monitor with keyboard or should i just buy a PC?
Get a PC.
The ebay listing states 'Comes with tax invoice' which I assume I can claim TRS as i am travelling end of March? Even the steam deck oled is an imported goods?
this or lenovo go for $1185 ???
This.
If you insist on the Legion Go, make sure it's the Z1EXTREME, and not just the Z1.
https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/p/laptops/legion-laptops/legion…
z1 extreme.
always thought windows would be easy to download,install and run the games and troubleshoot issues vs steamdeck . but love the steamdeck UI.. wonder if there is anything like that for windows
You could run Steam in Big Picture mode on the LeGo.
Or playnite.
Thanks OP, nabbed a 1TB.
Had so much time for gaming before kids came along, and it’s really hard to get the time to sit down at the computer nowadays. Hopefully this means I can get the same enjoyment on the go/sporadically!
Really hoping to play some Helldivers 2 on this!
helldivers 2 run a little potato on this BUT definitely playable, use this guy's setting you can get 30-40 fps
https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/1b4pwr5/best_hel…
Thanks! Yeah I’ve seen a few vids which need very low settings. I considered the ROG Ally, but I want a hassle free experience and I’m not too fussed on the graphics - I can get my fix from the desktop
Any orders shipped?
Placed last night, ETA delivery tomorrow
That was quick! I placed it early morning yesterday (6th). No ETA yet.
So it turns out I confused the delivery with one of many others on their way. Was a bit disappointed when I opened the package.
ETA Tuesday
Ordered on the 5th midnight, shipped on the 6th at night, and ETA is now next Monday…
This was supposed to be express delivery…
has to be under 600 bucks for me to trade in my switch oled for this. :D
Now $1085 with MARSAVE.
$1241 for the 1TB with the Anti-Glare display and premium case.
Has anyone received theirs yet? Mine is more than a week overdue.
$1035!
@DASHCAM NOW DUDE Hey mate, since I saw your comment in another handheld thread, I thought might as well ask for your opinion
Do you reckon there will be another promotion soon(where is the easter sale event anyway) that's going to further lower the price and potentially going under the thousand dollar magic mark?Absolutely. It'll hit under $1000 in the next few months. We haven't had a big eBay sales event this year yet.
Ordered on Friday, arrived on Tuesday. A+
