I guess I’m saying folks who are interested in a console handheld are probably not also looking at the deck since it is literally a computer. I don’t disagree on the lack of first party and exclusives. I think they can make a great device, it’s just gonna have a huge lack of content much like the psvr2.

That being said I think there’s a chance they go the route of psvr2 and somehow make the handheld compatible with steam so they don’t have to curate a library given the high cost of game development these days.

Nah it’s never gonna be able to play steam games as Sony is making money on the games it’s selling and not the hardware.

I think the advantage it would have over the Steam Deck is that you wouldn’t have to tinker to get games playing as it’d just be a normal console.

Personally, as a console gamer, I feel more and more attracted by Linux gaming, but I don’t think I’ll make the jump until physical games are gone for good.
