Wait...so is this entirely it's own hardware? I can play Steam games directly on my TV without streaming?

if you follow the link $399 is actually for the 64 GB model so you're probably only playing 1 AAA game at a time on that. They offer up to 512 GB models but then it's over $600

It does say they all have a microSD slot.
I'm tempted to get one but that button placement looks so uncomfortable. Also guess we are just ignoring the previously made topic? ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah the buttons layout look like a mess but I would literally never play this undocked.
And even ignoring expandable storage, this would be for me to finally play Trails in the Sky and shit, lol. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nanis23 07/15/21 1:33:06 PM #13: |
Oh yeah, storage
Being a handheld having a connection to a external HDD would look weird so I assume it doesn't support it? (couldn't find it mentioned in the tech specs) So your best bet is to get a SD card...and how high do they go? a 1 TB SD card looks pretty expensive --- wololo ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't play games on my PC. Just not something I'm really set up for nor do I enjoy gaming cooped up in my room. I do have Steam link from the $5 closeout sale which has had...mixed results. The only game I was able to tolerate playing through on it that I had no choice about was Umineko, which, you know...life changing experience, so I was able to tolerate the terrible resolution. Audio was clean at least!
So yeah this will be a visual novel and PC exclusive RPG machine for me. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Depending on the game, yeah. Admittedly that's probably more power than the Switch or some laptops.

It's so hard to imagine pc games being optimized for a handheld screen, let alone handheld controls

That IGN video only mentioned the dock hooking up to monitors and not TVs? That would be odd if that's the case, so I'm just assuming it's not.
Yeah, this is pretty damn cool. I'm tempted to pick it up.

I guess the dock could use Display Port, which I don't think many tvs have.
