More like different rooms in the house, sometimes on the deck when I'm grilling. Brought my switch on a flight recently, played a whole 9 innings in MLB 22.
Maybe you just be talking to your guests or grilling when your are grilling? And also why cant you just go to your living room and play on your tv? Is it taken by your wifes bf and her netflixing? I never got the moronic resoning for "playing everywhere" in your own house
If you really love gaming, you'll want to game anywhere and everywhere you can. Steam Deck lets you play PC games outside for 1-2 hours, Switch let's you play Nintendo games outside for 4 - 9 hours.
>PSP
Blatant nostalgia bullshit. Vita does everything the PSP does with a screen that doesn't suck dick. Considering it can be hacked easily, just get a Vita, mod it and play any PSP game you want.
I agree but change the switch to the OLED model (better screen, smaller bezels, slightly better battery life than v2). Also add new 3ds xl. And retroid pocket 2+.
The OLED blows v1, v2 and lite out of the water for handheld use. If you have a v1, its absolutely worth upgrading. If you have v2, maybe not so much. If you have a lite, I have to question your judgement.
I don't want to deal with that
plus even though I haven't hacked it and still probably won't ever do it I do have a hackable switch because I bought it in 2017 and I don't want to lose that ability

I just don't like getting rid of anything I own
My RMA replacement FINALLY fricking arrived
pro tip to any bongs who get a delivery through GLS. DO NOT USE THEIR SHITTY TRACKING APP
use the reference code on the royal mail app. Apparrently this thing has been returned to a local post office like 5 times due to failed deliveries (which i know for a fact wasn't attempted at my house because i've been no lifing and not leaving my home waiting for this thing) and after so many times they will drop it off at a post office and expect you to pick it up. the GLS didn't tell me which post office it was at, nor that I had to pick it up so it's been sat there for 3 days now. They didn't leave a note at my house telling me to pick it up either which they're supposed to do. It was only on a whim that I tried putting the tracking data on the royal mail tracking app that I found out where it was and that I was meant to pick it up.

my old unit was randomly turning itself off, sometimes mid gaming sessions after prolonged use, some times the day after when waking it up from sleep mode. it also had an issue where sometimes when waking up mid game the audio would be sped up

the whole system doesn't freeze, but a window will get stuck and I have no way to close it so I end up having to reset the thing
I can't into Linux so I don't know if there's a shortcut for something like task manager to force close something that bugs out

This is a game-specific issue with pipewire, they've been slowly addressing through updates.
The best vidya device ever made wouldn’t be made by known scammers who commit false advertising and fraud.
Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.
yes, bought a hacked switch about a year ago instead of getting the steam deck, them got it anyway, haven't picked up the switch once aside to get the save files off it

how can the deck replace the switch when it can't smoothly emulate all the switch's games?
I'm waiting for the Deck 2.
I need a 600+nits OLED or better screen since I live in a super sunny area.
I already own a Switch but don't play it since I just emulate all the games on my PC at 4k.

the link they gave me went directly to the GLS tracking app, which does contain a "parcel force number" but I didn't think to check it until today. Either way doesn't change the fact that they tried to deliver it to some random house (or didn't even try to deliver at all) like 5 days in a row.
ah right, no email from parcel force for me. i was honestly expecting to get to the post office and see the wrong address/post code on the parcel but it was all correct.
How long did it take you and how is the RMA unit?
>how long
the rma process was initiated on jun 20 according to my old steam tickets but i didn't send it off until 3 weeks later so some time around July 11 , i got an email on July 27 saying they were preparing the item to ship, and then I got the item today on August 6th. Could have got it on monday august 1st if the delivery guy wasn't on crack. >how is the unit
feels fine so far, still updating everything so I haven't really tried any games yet so can't comment.
3DS > Switch, the Deck is awesome for what it is, powerful portable device that lets you access most of the PC library with customizable controls and everything, really amazing if you travel a lot, probably too bulky for a daily commute though
i just installed w10 on mine because my brother wants to play fortnite with me, now i can easily dualboot back and forth 🙂
i installed it on an external usb stick, this way i will not worsen the lifespan of my internal ssd or my 1tb sd card
replaces the Switch shit with 3DS or even the PSP and we're talking, you dumb zoomer.
The deck already handles the Switch to some extent.
3DS is not above gbc or gba.

well at least you admit that you never go outside
lmao poorgay. you have no idea how comfy it is to play while laying out by the pool.

lmfao i knew motherfrickers that looked like this in college
I play in my bed. 🙂

i only see one
and its made by nintendo
Those look rather large for being PSPs, anon

>change the switch to the OLED model
the OLED is not a worthwhile $350 upgrade when you already have a switch
You're right about the standard Switch, but the massive screen upgrade in terms of size and quality is better than the Lite if you only play handheld.
nobody with a brain should ever buy a lite in the first place
does the OLED have a glass screen?
The OLED blows v1, v2 and lite out of the water for handheld use. If you have a v1, its absolutely worth upgrading. If you have v2, maybe not so much. If you have a lite, I have to question your judgement.
anon I just spent $700 on a deck, I don't want to pay $350 to get the same console I already have with only a better screen and battery life
just sell your old switch for 200 and get the upgrade for 150 then
I don't want to deal with that
plus even though I haven't hacked it and still probably won't ever do it I do have a hackable switch because I bought it in 2017 and I don't want to lose that ability

Only game worth on that shit is p4g

Excellent game. Even better on PS4. Why PlayStation doesn't do anything with this title is unfounded
Vita means life.
>$100 8GB propietary MicroSD
Nope.
You haven't need of those in years now bro. Just hack it and use a MicroSD adapter.
>that gif
What a blast from the past
Newer devices is better??
Whoulda thunk it!
>switch
I honestly have not seen anything that the switch can do that you can’t get on most other systems, for cheaper or free.
>muh exclusives
Abolish your shit exclusives.
I only have a Switch and have had it for five years. Steam Deck enjoyer bros, is it as superior to Switch as it seems to be?
yes, bought a hacked switch about a year ago instead of getting the steam deck, them got it anyway, haven't picked up the switch once aside to get the save files off it

Played kirby before the deck came out, everything else seems to work perfectly

Didn't you get a parcel force tracking number?
They sent me an email the day before it was due to deliver and then had tracking software for that day. Went easy for me, GLS were useless though.
the link they gave me went directly to the GLS tracking app, which does contain a "parcel force number" but I didn't think to check it until today. Either way doesn't change the fact that they tried to deliver it to some random house (or didn't even try to deliver at all) like 5 days in a row.
I actually had parcel force send me an email separate from GLS the day before informing me of delivery the next day.
Weird though, guess it depends where you live when it comes to quality of couriers.
ah right, no email from parcel force for me. i was honestly expecting to get to the post office and see the wrong address/post code on the parcel but it was all correct.

Switch is one of the worst consoles ever made, shitty PCB design where P13USB dies often and the controllers are made to fail intentionally.
i just installed w10 on mine because my brother wants to play fortnite with me, now i can easily dualboot back and forth 🙂
i installed it on an external usb stick, this way i will not worsen the lifespan of my internal ssd or my 1tb sd card
>Shitch
lmao, frick off
Enjoy having no games, snoygay
Switch is cancer. Nintendo dove right into all the industry's bullshit with it.
