Valve (Steam) past:

Nin past:

Valve and Nin now:

For what it offers, Steam Deck seems pretty decent. Valve has made considerable progress on the hardware front.

The main eye candy is supposed to be whatever's on the screen, not the hardware itself.

To me it isn't about eye candy. I can fit OG Switch in my pockets (adult man). No way could one fit this in their pocket unless they dressed like a goth and had those massive pockets.

It's about the pockets. Nothing else matters but the pockets. You see now that this is a universal truth?

I love how this thread had become so focused on the pockets.

Love.

It.

Forget Team Rocket! Join Team Pocket!

So when Switch 2 launches and the changes are all non processing related, the pocketeers are all going to be totally fine with that, just as long as it still fits in their pockets?

Companies should stop making laptops and ipads as well as those are bigger than the switch too! You can't fit 10 inch ipads inside of your pockets so they are pointless!

People don't use laptops the same time they would a Switch. No one pulls out a laptop while they are standing in line to get their frozen mocha frappe with extra sauce, no whip, or when they are standing in line to see Pirates of the Caribbean 7 at 2:37 am on a Friday morning. And think about the times you are already sitting comfortably, but someone sits down next to you to turn on General Hospital and you aren't engaged in the plot of that episode, do you go to the hassle of standing up, grabbing your laptop, fan, and tray, bring it all back, plug in the charger, boot it all up and the game, or simply reach inside your pocket and firmly grab your hybrid while the hospital mafia does its thing?

People don't use consoles of any size or type the same way they use PC's of any size or type. Switch isn't running Linux or Windows.

I highly doubt the overwhelming majority of Steam Deck gamers are only going to play games on it that are Nin or simply available on Switch.

Having a case, pouch, side bag, or small backpack, doesn't seem like that big of a deal if you want top mobile quality and quantity of software available.
