minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•4 months agoi cannot see a use case for this. just get a steam deck instead
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•4 months agoIt’s much smaller, lighter, and cheaper than a steam deck. Seems good for emulating retro games. Definitely a niche product, but cool.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•4 months agoMaybe. But that means a lot more diy, and once your done with buying a pi, screen, battery, and all the 3d prints, you’re in about $160 anyway.
