I pre-ordered but not in any rush. I have gpd stuff already.

Cracks me up the people counting the days till they get it only to play around with it for a day before putting in the cupboard never to be seen until the day they go on holiday.

What GPD stuff do you have?

I will use it every day at work
And then whenever I commute somewhere. And whenever the heat is too much for me to game on my high-end PC and Plasma TV.

My Lenovo 3070 laptop sitting in my desk drawer for 2 months. Can't be asked transferring my stuff from my desktop to laptop.

Having said that, I will deffo use the steam frequently.

Lol.

I'd buy one.

Which probably means it's prime drawer material Sold my PS4 because I hardly used it. Bought a Switch. Sold that because I hardly used it. Bought a Quest 2. That barely gets used. Neither does the Xbox Series S, which replaced a barely used Xbox One S

This would have looked so much better without the touch pads and better placed controls. Probably around the size of the switch.

It would be much less useful without the touch pads. And as far as ergonomics goes, according to IGN reporter who played on it, Steam Deck is more comfortable than Switch.

I find switch very uncomfortable.. get annoying pain after 30-50mins. This looks more ergonomic and better suited to bigger hands.

 

[McBain]

Ill likely be playing mine with an external controller for the same reason.

 

[Raymond Lin]

Just saw that the SD card slot is dynamic meaning you can hot swap without reboot.

Sweet just checked mine Your expected order availability: December 2021. Happy days

 

[Mucky_Pup]

Mine says Q1 2022, even though the receipt says 6:01, lol, email didn't come till 6:12 though, which was around the time the errors stopped for me.

[Dave85]

[kakarott]

Where do you see the order position?

 

[Rollo]

Anyone seens theirs go backwards? I'm sure mine originally said Dec 2021 but now saying Q1 2022. I might have just not read it and assumed i was in first wave though! (Ordered 512gb at 18:10 btw).
