I’m curious how much valve is gonna charge for the steamdeck 2 game upgrades.
They are so bad at business they will probably forget to charge me, just like they did for my steam online subscription to play online multiplayer steam games…
- ARMS
- Big Brain Academy: Brains Vs. Brain
- Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
- Game Builder Garage
- New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
- Pokémon Scarlet & Pokémon Violet
- Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury
- Super Mario Odyssey
- The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
- The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening
So Pokemon is finally getting the patch it needs just to function properly. It’s just tied to a $400 console.
The majority of the Switch 2’s marketing has focused on ports and upgrades for old games. Which a Steam Deck still does better. And at least Valve won’t brick my system when their profit margin is threatened.
$450 console, plus tax
I won’t buy one, and will likely retire from purchasing consoles.
I want a machine that plays games that belong to me, that have no online requirements whatsoever.
I want to own a machine that cannot be bricked remotely by the seller.
It’s a pastime/luxury/extravagance that I can and will abandon and replace with something more reasonable.
Steam deck, or a variant, is all I am doing for handhelds any more.
I won’t buy Nintendo products anymore.
Isn’t Steam even more always online?
I used it on airplane mode for 6 weeks, not realizing it was still on that. So, not really?
And all my installers are backed up as well, so the publishers don’t try to screw me. May not help with them all, but oh well.
I’m still passing on the switch 2 at this rate.
