2·
1 month agoI put my Nintendo switch under a pop up panel with the spare tire in the trunk of my car and forgot about it. Searched through the whole house and most of the car a week later and assumed it was stolen. I found it when I needed jumper cables about a year later…
Now that the Steam Deck and linux gaming has found some success I really hope Valve or someone else revisits the home console market with a similar approach.
You couldn’t really build a PC for the same price as a PS5 with the same performance unless you’re buying used parts in most places but that’s not because Sony is selling consoles at a loss right now like the olden days. A large system integrator like Valve (or xbox if they want to change their formula) could offer similar perf/price without all the downsides of these locked down consoles.
