You mean like those AAA titles the fucking Switch can't run?
That's literally the only thing close to competition that the Deck has, and it skullfucks it in terms of horsepower.
@CapraObscura @EatMyDick
It has those windows portables (I am blanking on the company name) but those also have way worse battery life.
Asus ROG Ally is a prime example. Excellent Windows 11 no BS experience with about 30 mins of playtime on battery.
@DanVctr
Wow only 30 minutes? At that point it's just a very portable console.
Oh and I guess steam has also been carefully cultivating their own IP, studios, and games for the past 40 years to ensure a steady supply of the new stuff right? Right?
Because even I hear someone gushing over their switch it's because they are playing some 4 year old game that finally made it there and it's definitely not titles like Mario or Zelda.
What the fuck does any of that have to do with running AAA games?
The Deck is not competing with consoles, genius. Unless you're so stuck in early 2000's fashion that you pants are so ginormously huge that you can fit a PS5 and TV in them.
Stay on topic or piss off.
