      Handhelds are huge in Japan. The PS Vita kept up sales and popularity in Japan a few years after it was dead in the water in the West. I hope the Steam Deck will teach Sony a lesson that they should've continued developing for the PS Vita, but I'm not sure what they've got in the works for the future.

        >I hope the Steam Deck will teach Sony a lesson that they should've continued developing for the PS Vita
        Steam Deck works because developers can essentially treat it as a slight special case for the same platform. A lot of the things that determine if a game works on it are just things like supporting the resolution, gamepad support, gamepad+mouse support, and avoiding Microsoft video codecs or NT specific malware.
        For the PSV, Sony had to maintain an entire platform separate from the PS4, and the same would be true for the PS5. The only way they would bring it back is if they went handheld-only like Nintendo did. Which they might do, "consoles" that are just PCs but closed platforms don't seem like they have a future. You can get 95% of the way there right now just by building a gaming PC with an AMD GPU, and installing a modern Linux distro meant for 10 foot use.

        There are persistent rumors Valve is going to do a 'console PC' of their own, and it will probably take off this time if they handle it like the Deck and sell it themselves.
        Microsoft won't be able to lean on OEMs to pay up on 'patent license fees' higher than the cost of a Windows license like what they did to the first-gen Steam Machines.

      • 2 weeks ago

        Most likely they're just going to treat their PC ports like handheld ports so they reap all the benefits of selling extra software for handheld play without needing to make their own hardware for it. A lot of their PC ports like God of War, Days Gone, and Spider-Man run quite nice on Deck.

          Clearly they're just putting in the minimum amount of effort for Japan. If Valve really cared, they would distribute the Deck themselves. I think it's funny that Ganker keeps hoping and coping that Japan becomes epic PC gamers so they'll be just like "us", as if the Deck is some kind of Trojan Horse to achieve that.

            japan already has a growing pc market anon, but it's thanks to apex and switch games being a pain in the ass to stream so vtubers settle for pc gayman as a second best choice, which gets people to copy them
            the thing Ganker goyims are desperate to claim is coping pretending japan cares about their goyslop tablet more over the switch, which is just not true when it's not even used there
            >as if the Deck is some kind of Trojan Horse to achieve that.
            this is literally what is happening bro, they are trying to get the japanese market locked on steam so they can backstab them later just like sony did
            unfortunately for them that sony betrayal and the PS4+5 going full westoid pretty much made japanese companies not care about westoid brands altogether, especially not when most games jp gamers want to play are not on steam regardless thanks to their draconian anti-japan policies

              Who is "they"? Because if you're referring Valve, they would sell them the Deck on their storefront, not at a handful of stores, if they really had a grand plan in play. Pretty hollow attempt when the Switch 2 is on the horizon and is poised to potentially run third party games just fine as graphic potential continues to stagnate.

      I've got a switch lite and tend to prefer it over the deck in most regards. The switch is more streamlined by far in that games just work, the fan is inaudible and battery life is good across the board. The Deck can play almost anything but can be a bit of a slog to get settings and controls right. I seem to spend as much time tinkering as I do actually playing the game. And the fan is loud on mine even with 10w tdp limit. I don't know how well the nips will take to the deck if they're used to Sony and Nintendo handhelds.

              at the distance you use a TV at there's barely any difference between normal 1080p and 4k

                Even if you fell for the goytracing meme amd is still barely behind goyvidia these days unless you cope with the next tier of crippleworks that is pathtracing for even more negligible improvements at the cost of crippling your performance even in nvidia cards not named "4090".

                Nah, i can understand pc gamers shitting on DLSS&FSR, but when playing vidya on a TV, DLSS quality mode works just fine, you cant see the artifacts from the couche.
                But on the other side, FSR in yuzu works really well.

                >unironically, not even as a joke, using goyscaling and fake frames
                at that point why are you even bothering with 4k? just set that thing to 1080p from the get go

                so does goyscaling, just use it, why even bother with the pretense at that point?
                why are you coping so hard with your waste of money on a 4k tv when you're a poorcuck that can't even afford anything above a 60 series card plus the ti cope?

                >I expect AMD to catch up next generation
                With Nvidia's proprietary tech they use to keep users locked into their hardware? Never going to happen.
                Open-source Vulkan gets standard ray tracing? Nvidia pushes new custom APIs for developers for 'true path tracing' that leans on some code that slows down anything else.
                Open-source FSR gets frame interpolation and higher-quality upscaling? Nvidia introduces something new exclusive to 5000 series hardware all the reviewers will insist you have to have.
                The only way to win is just to get off Nvidia's treadmill.

                The big problem is AMD has now unfortunately been ignored for so long, and sells so little hardware to NT gamers they may not even bother with anything other than SoC and low-end hardware next cycle.
                They might be content to sell an RDNA 3.5 '8700' as the top-tier hardware to that market, and offer some new CDNA 4.x + Graphics hardware to the UNIX workstation market.

                Depressing as frick to read that.

                Yeah, but as long as people insist on only buying Nvidia hardware it isn't going to change.

                AMD has so little marketshare now that Steam Deck and other Linux users are 12% of total AMD users. Well ahead of the 5% they represent in the overall stats (ignoring China).
                Intel's discrete hardware still doesn't even show up in the stats, and even with integrated hardware they have even less users than AMD with no bright spots.

                NT users buying Nvidia just keep telling themselves 'someone will save us', but the fact is it isn't worth it for anyone to do it if nobody actually buys anything else.

                I do not trust intel to make useful graphics hardware. Their "intel uhd 1 billion" integrated graphics are so bad that they can't even brute force shit 2d games, unlike amd's integrated chipsets that can run most mid range games. And AMD's shooting themselves on the foot by making all their "low end" graphics cards require expensive as frick motherboards so you end up buying an expensive GPU because you already splurged on the motherboard. It may not be optimal for anyone involved, but these buttholes dug their own graves.

                Is that some Windows driver thing? I don't think any of the hardware I'm running is expensive as frick and it all works fine.

                The upside is because of china trying to bomb taiwan to the ground, the entire western world is in a frenzy to build semiconductor plants all over the place that can replace them if china does it.
                So if we get lucky in the next decade there will be double the semiconductor production if china doesnt go complete moron and we end up with a overproduction of chips and the prices will drop hard.

                Maybe, but the chip makers have no incentive to crank out hardware for the NT gaming market if NT gamers don't buy anything from them.
                Also a depressing amount of that new capacity will be making 6502s, m6800s and other archaic hardware because they're vital for defense or other vital systems, they probably won't be making modern GPUs.
                But hey, maybe we'll see more retro-gaming hardware.

                It's a pins thing. They have fewer pins on a newer format. So you end up having to buy a 300 dollar motherboard to use a 150 dollar gpu. a normal person will go "welp, i paid 300 buckaroos for this motherboard, may as well splurge on the card, too!" and i mean the pci pins, not the power pins. If you put amd's budget offerings on a budget motherboard, they run worse than a 1060.

                I think the market for $150 GPUs dried up more because that market got taken over by system-on-chip boards.
                PCIe with fewer pins has been around for a long time. Just about any gaming board should have at least one slot that supports the full 16 lanes.

                Is this some thing where Windows OEMs are crippling AMD systems by not including a full size PCIe slot?

                extremely cheap entry level budget boards are goyslop with just either x4 lanes or pcie 3, both which frick amd performance
                take a guess what is the type of board most OEMs use these days

                Intel has owned the OEM market for decades.
                This isn't a new thing.

                Are you just waking up to the fact Intel and Nvidia are exploiting you for more money?
                That's what happens when you only want a competitor to bring prices down without actually buying their hardware.

                AMD has been better than goyvidia since the RX 5x00 series anon, even the drivers meme not only hasn't been true since then, nvidia is also the one getting more driver issues these days too.
                These days they are even on par with raytracing to the point goyvidia has to double down the cope and make pathtracing the next step in the crippleworks cope.

      Deck actually passed the 4090 this month in the Survey. It just got split in two, possibly by the LCD/OLED models.
      .67 + .19 = .86
      4090 is .85.

          The two identifiers are
          AMD AMD Custom GPU 0405
          AMD Radeon Graphics (RADV VANGOGH)

          So it could also just be some SteamOS update changing whether it gets the hardware ID or the driver ID.
          RadV is the GNU/Linux exclusive high-performance AMD Vulkan driver.

          They are binary incompatible with PC games compiled for x86 or AMD64.
          Plus standard graphics APIs are no longer supported. So no Vulkan, or anything built with Vulkan like DXVK, or Zink.
