Not something to play on a train or airplane, but if you're someone who's in a "permanent travel" job, and don't like the Nintendo Switch, it's handy.

The Xbox 360/PS2/PS3 versions of these were popular in the Navy when I was in. I still have a PS2 one in a drawer.

I’d rather get a steam deck than a $500 console + a $300 screen

Trying to use Steam with spotty or restricted Wi-Fi is a big part of what turned me into a console gamer.

I remember the ps2 version. Didn't buy one though. I guess the switch isn't for everyone.

Those consoles were also a LOT smaller than the stupidly oversized PS5 lol

I found that out when I tried to put a PS5 in the spot my PS4 and PS3 had previously occupied.
