$400 for the cheapest version. Ships in December. Reservations start tomorrow 10 AM PST. Valve's version of the Switch, I guess. It already comes with your Steam library, so you'll have stuff to play. I already have a PC, but I guess it'd be cool if I wanted to play Dota on the go? idk, but I hope it does better. Valve kinda sucks at marketing. --- http://orig14.deviantart.net/59f8/f/2009/047/4/9/rylai_crestfall_by_eyue.jpg Crystal Maiden... gal could break your heart in a thousand pieces. -Rucks ...

So they basically fucked up coming out with a Steam "console" so badly that now they're just moving on to making a Steam PSP.

What is it with Valve and stupid fucking touchpads. I think I want to like the overall shape, but it's a solid pass for me with those control placements and chunky screen. Should have been 1600x1000 at that size and price.

I dunno...I usually Steam game on my Laptop, and yea, unless they have some kinda 'Remote Play/Streaming' system for the games on there, 64GB will fill up FAST...and for some other types of games (like MMOs) you really need a Keyboard/Mouse combo to play...
So I dunno, I probably won't get it...I just stick to Mobile Games if I wanna play on the Small Screen ... Copied to Clipboard!

That 64GB is an absolute joke.
Also I think the Vita has a Dreamcast emulator, among many other things. Switch probably does too. --- Official King of PotD You only need one T-Rex to make the point, though. ~ Samus Sedai ... Copied to Clipboard!

That 64GB is an absolute joke. Maybe it will be like the switch where things take up less space for some reason. The biggest game on my switch (breath of the wild) only takes up 15 gigs. Also I have streets of rage 4 on it and ps4 and it takes up more room on the ps4. No clue why as it looks and feels identical on both systems --- Cid- "looks like that overgrown lobster just got served!" Bartz-"with cheese biscuts AND mashed potatoes!" ... Copied to Clipboard!

I still don't understand handhelds. The only time I can ever find them to be useful over my console/PC is if I'm on a long flight.

Being able to grind while laying in bed or if I happen to be a passenger in a car is nice.

I don't know what prompted it, but for a couple months now I've been getting YouTube recommendations for all kinds of different handheld PC game devices in development. They get pretty expensive too.

Hardware is a risky adventure and they aren't really versed in full form factor media like this. Most of their peripherals have failed and I think their VR is on its way out.
If this survives and thrives it will be because of some odd demo that they tapped. $400 is a bit pricey for the slot it fills when most people who would want this probably have phones where they spend their money. Nintendo is the master of portables. Let them do it. This is gonna be SEGA Gamegear 2.0. Atari Lynx even. ... Copied to Clipboard!
