<h1 id="why">Why</h1>
|
|
<p>First off- im a Linux nerd. I run Arch Linux, and love it..</p>
|
|
<p>I have been in the market for a console- or at least something i can play on that i have games on. All my consoles are gone currently. While my laptop currently doesn’t have enough storage. The only computer i have that can play games is a my laptop currently, and that is completely fine. I will be getting a whole new PC soon too, from a relative of mine.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="however-i-want-a-console">However i want a console</h1>
|
|
<p>Why? Because its just fun to have something that is pickup and i start playing a game, and that is exactly what the steam deck tries to be while on Linux.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="another-reason-i-want-a-deck">Another reason i want a Deck</h1>
|
|
<p>Well- quite honestly, I love Linux.</p>
|
|
<p>With this being a open, Linux based console firstly, while supporting everything else second. You can literally do anything you want. This i really appreciate. If i want to, i can make this into my main rig, and plug in a monitor, camera, anything.</p>
|
|
<p>The difference between this and a normal Linux based computer, is that tries to guide you. It tries to make it simple to someone who never has used a Linux based computer. This it does pretty great at. This is a combo honestly- it is what the switch wanted to be.</p>
|
|
<p>I hope to review my steam deck when i get it, and hope it is what it claims to be.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="emulation">Emulation</h1>
|
|
<p>I will get to play titles like Super Mario Odyssey portablely without a cartridge. This is great for playing titles like potentially the orginal Mario, or even something like NFL 2K5 with the <a href="https://github.com/lostsoul63b/NFL-2K23">Resurrected mod</a></p>
|
|
<p>I think loads of side scroller titles would be amazing on this thing.</p>
|
|
<h1 id="some-notes">Some notes</h1>
|
|
<p>So steam has really made something that appeals to just about any type of Gamer.</p>
|
|
<p>PC gamer: You can make this into a PC</p>
|
|
<p>Console gamer: this is a console by default</p>
|
|
<p>Emulation person: this thing can emulate just about anything</p>
|
|
<p>Linux lover: This thing runs Arch Linux in the back</p>
|
|
<p>Name just about anything- and this thing can do it pretty easily. Even if not- someone can create a project that does what you need it to.</p>
