@deactivated-621c246d6d438: Not really. You're obviously not the person this device was designed for in that case but there's millions of other people are more than happy to have a Switch-like device that has the capability of running AAA games at correct settings with stable framerates in a hand held form factor. Plenty of people testing this say the form factor is superb and very lightweight for it's size.
The limited storage is purely down to whatever version you get + the SD card aspect makes it a non issue.
Your comment about pushing performance on mobile devices is just plain stupid as well.
@BassMan: If you'd bothered to do,like 5 seconds of research, you would have found out that 30fps is a minimum framerate AND selected for personal preference on the decks performance slider. You can run at 60fps if the actual game supports it, so your comment is dumb af.
@screamingsatori: The Steam Deck has been out for what, like a day? And you're bitching about no JRPG's verified right out of the gate?
Dude, you need to calm down and just take a look at what this thing is capable of. As already mentioned & if you'd actually done your homework, you'd realise that most games will run on the Steam Deck out of the box. If the game isn't verified, it means the game just hasn't been tested yet. Given the billions of games available, I think it's fair to say that the vast majority of them will work perfectly now, or in the very near future. Take a chill pill, continue playing on whatever you play these games on currently and take a look at this further down the line. If you haven't pre-ordered a Steam Deck yet, chances are you won't even get a sniff at the hardware until christmas time or well into next year anyway.
@lonewolf1044: I see people looking for shortcomings when there really aren't any to write home about.
Steam Deck looks set to be the holy grail of portable gaming & I can't see anything getting close to it anytime soon. The fact that I'll have a powerful portable handheld PC with the bulk of my Steam library ready to go from day 1 is glorious. Q2 can't come fast enough.
