I’m just curious if anyone else tried to get one of the Limited Edition Steam Decks before they sold out. I tried for it (on 3 devices) but kept getting error messages until it sold out. I just ordered the 1 TB edition instead.
This will be my first portable gaming device since the DSi, so I’m really excited for it. Getting the clear LE one would have been cool, but I’m probably better off not spending the extra $40 CAD, lol.
So, what’s your Steam Deck situation? Did you try for/get the LE? Do you already have one? Getting one? Don’t want one?
Don’t want one.
As a piece of hardware and platform, I like it. I think that the OLED screen is definitely a win too.
But I carry a laptop and tablet (EDIT: and smartphone) with me already, and I rarely game much when out and about. Just not enough additional utility provided by the thing.
Thank you for putting into words what I’ve been trying to weigh out regarding a Steam Deck.
I think your tech arrangement is similar enough to my own and therefore just what I needed to read in order to convince myself I won’t miss not having one.
I thought I felt the same, but after getting it I’m just super impressed. It blows the “gaming laptop” experience out of the water IMO. It’s not as good as a proper gaming rig, but for a budget device, the bang for buck is insane
