My money is on more Steam Decks being sold in Japan, thus driving MH up in those lists.

That’s better, although I would probably wait for $130-140.
Yeah, I’m not using the paddles for anything fancy, simply face buttons or R1/L1 / R3/L3 for most games, so your modded DualSense sounds like a nice solution for that. I’m not sure you would get much more with a DS Edge tbh, unless you’re really interested in making trigger adjustments or joysticks replacements (which is certainly a nice-to-have, but also a missed opportunity as they could have gone with hall effect ones…).
I don’t have any experience with using the Edge on the Deck since I only play it in handheld mode, but I’ve been using it almost exclusively for about 10 months on PS5 and I really couldn’t go back to a regular DualSense, the backpaddles are too nice to get rid off now. The trigger adjustment is also pretty neat, although I don’t play competitive shooters so I’m not really part of the “target demographic”.
That being said, I wouldn’t have bought it at MSRP and I still don’t think it’s worth $200 USD (I got it on amazon warehouse deals for 40% off and it was basically brand new, if you can get it this way or otherwise slightly used elsewhere I’d recommend that instead).
That was on Logitech’s website and after adding it to the cart, no idea about Amazon.
It might not look the part, but I’m talking from experience and it was just a notch below the Deck’s ergonomics tbh.
I think that’s debatable, as many still prefer the Xbox controller design and layout, but I’m biased towards the Dual Sense (as well?), sure.
And please, for the love of every other real handheld that came before it, don’t abbreviate it as PSP…
I think the Logitech G Cloud would fit in that category, when on sale (otherwise it’s $350 USD, so at that point you might as well get the 64G Deck).
Afaict it’s $250 USD with a promo code now and since it’s basically a tweaked Android ROM, you can stream Game pass, your PS4/PS5 (via PS Play) or Geforce Now and even do some light emulation (up to DC just fine).
Ergonomics and screen are pretty great from what I recall, after testing one a few months ago.
Protondb reports is the only “surefire” way I’ve found tbh, since this is the kind of detail that gets included.
Tough one. I care a lot about game preservation, so I naturally tend to gravitate towards GOG, however I’ve had trouble getting a few too many games running, while the Steam versions “just work” (with the same version of Proton, etc).
I really tend to make sure that I’m not going to have any issues with the GOG version before buying it nowadays, otherwise I’ll get the Steam version.
512 OLED ordered 22 mins after launch in Canada, it was shipped (still label created when tracking with FedEx) about an hour ago now.
As the RetroDECK team, we are deeply concerned by the rumors about how others have handled their dependencies and their relationship with those developers.
I haven’t been following up with the Emulation scene on Steam Deck for a while, what is this in reference to?
Yep, completely fair.
They mention:
How long will DeckHD support the custom BIOS firmware?
We plan to continue providing BIOS firmware support for the foreseeable future. We are also optimistic about having the opportunity to work together with Valve to release official BIOS which natively support the DeckHD screen.
Which sounds to me like they haven’t reached out to Valve and there’s pretty much no chance of that (EDIT: official BIOS support) ever happening.
It’s the exact same size.
If I already own the game on either platform, that’s where I’ll play it. I also don’t emulate the Switch on Deck, as (and although) I have a modded V1 that I can OC and a Lite for portability’s sake.
I especially prefer playing TATE Mode shmups on Switch with my Flip Grip, it’s a game changer.
I also tend to favour physical games overall, so I might buy games on Switch more often than not (unless there are significant performance differences).
I’m in the same situation, the Deck has been my only PC for about as long as I’ve owned it (first batch, so about a year and a half now) and it’s more than enough for my use case.
I picked up quite a few games - Deathsmiles, DoDonPachi Resurrection, Mega Man X Legacy Collection, Mushihimesama, ProtoCorgi, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds Saga, TMNT Shredder’s Revenge and Ultrakill.
I’ve only played ProtoCorgi so far and I kinda love it - I mean, you’re a corgi, barking or shooting lasers at various enemies in space, what’s not to love?
I’ve already played most of the other games before and wanted to own them on Steam, except for Ultrakill (and I’m really looking forward to that one).
