I'll buy one eventually if the reviews are good and the controls are - contrary to expectations - comfortable. Have my doubts about the initial prototype.
the prerelease reviewers seem to like the controls... i do agree that it might be too heavy or clunky to be ergo in longer gaming sessions. it could really benefit from a us tour or something to get people more acclimated to it (kinda like ninty does)
This is 100% of the issue for me. Unfortunately, I only trust myself for evaluating these things, so buying one is simply not an option until I can put my own hands on it.
It looks like a Game Gear with a worse button layout. I'll be happy to try it in a Best Buy in 8 years, I guess.
thats the most likely problem with steamdeck, i think prettymuch all the other specs look great. and the switch can be heavyish if youre playing for a really long time, and the steamdeck weights about 50% more than switch does. I think the steamD could benefit greatly if the controllers were removable like nintendo, then you could table game and the weight isn/t that much of a factor anymore. but its everybodys guess when ever this will be released. I'd say 3-4 years before its widespread at physical stores, of course that relies on biden solving the shipping fiasco, making it harder to tell when the chips will be available, but i think undoubtedly it will be a major hit, even with the coming wait. and fuck the little fag who keeps downvoting this thread. I bet its fuckboysinc from calling him out last night
