I just wanted a pocketable device, so I decided to pick Mini over 5.

Originally, I wanted to order the white color but ended up choosing the black one because it makes the bezels and pillar boxes blend into the case. It also looks like a small SteamDeck ๐Ÿ˜…

When I'm not programming, I'm playing GTA III on it and earning RetroAchievements ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

With SteamDeck

I remember when my 300mhz desktop PC growing up was able to serve 10-15 fps in GTA 3.

Being able to run it at a small probably not too expensive device is truly amazing.

And that's via emulation!

It's possible to run GTA 3 and VC natively thanks to Re3 and ReVC decompilation projects even on sub-50$ handhelds!
