To be honest I just want the thing to be shown because.
Turning old (beginning of middle age) has really messed with my perception of forever (or "ages" in this case) how long has it been out, 5 years now? That seems like not too long of a time.
March 3, 2017 is when the switch was released, 7.5 years ago Feels like just a couple of years after the Dreamcast was released…. Getting old sucks
Yeah but my wife and I got one for ourselves when we got married.... And that wasn't... Fuck.... I've got a big major anniversary coming up...
Can confirm, just started college, was in like 5th grade (6th year of primary school) when the switch came out.
Though to me it still feels like the new console on the block, even though it's the oldest of the current gen consoles.
I'm right there with you, my deck, and my future deck 2 (there will be no deck 3 because valve/steam/GabeN) is probably the only "console" I get from here out
Can that thing emulate Nintendo shit capably?
I want that now lol. Its everything, its muh dream handheld
GameCube and PS2 games work incredibly well on the Steam Deck. Some PS3 and Xbox 360 as well. I've played through several PS2 games and all of TLoZ Windwaker on my deck.
It can emulate the switch, and I've tried it out with pretty good success, but not sure if there are any tradeoffs.
