Nope.

Because that's not a real thing outside of PC.

Buy a pack of Nintendo playing cards.

Screw setting up your own RasberryPi.

Switch is great when little kids step on it and break the screen, lose the controllers, and cough and sneeze fluids all over the screen when using it. /s

The Switch is NOT for kids that age unless it's put up away from them and they are using a couple of pro controllers. And since that's the way that would be safest for them and the console, you may as well spend less money and get a used PS4 and an extra controller and really guage their interest

The DS5 is hands-down the best controller. Especially with games that can take advantage of it's features fully.

Steamdeck.

If you want to impress your boyfriend, forget both of those options and get him a Steamdeck.

I owned every Nintendo console up to the Wii. The Wii was cool for about a month until I realized Nintendo's shitty game plan.

There are some really dumb things about how MS handles account stuff. Some for Sony too, but in my time with PS (since release day of PS1) I have never had an issue. 99% of people don't ever have an issue. But when they do, they come straight here to tell everyone about it. Just like you're doing.

Nintendo needs to quit with the "Teehee, look a how CUTE I am!" nonsense and just make a real console again. Ever since they dropped out of competition with the rest of the industry, they have been off my radar.

At first glance I thought you were watering the TV with a packet of turkey gravy stuck to your shoe. But once i took a bite of my freshly potted bar of soap I really took notice of the fact that I have bought a lot of people fish sandwiches.

Actually no 4k, less fidelity, less frames per second, and PS+ Premium has more games than Gamepass for the same price. The Series S is a piece of trash console.

I always advocate for the disc option, but I pretty much only get digital games.

I lost my BC PS3 to the YLOD a year or two ago. I got another one off of eBay though.

Slims are coming in 2023, pro's likely the year after.

Retroid Pocket 3+

I just bought a super cheap (about $250) 42" 4k 60Hz LG for my grandson's PS5. It's certainly not greatest TV, but it looks miles better than the old 1080p TV he had. But to answer your question, yes, HDMI 2.1 doesn't really matter if you're just working with 60Hz TV's.

Here's how I do it: link

See above answer.

As the owner of an Epson printer and a goldfish made of play-doh I'd say to go buy a pound of Swedish meatballs and put them in a big brown bowl and just rest your face in them.

This is how I'm answering every single one of these dumbass "Help, what should I do?" posts from now on. I urge everyone to do the same until we successfully raise the bar of intelligent posts in this as of now fucking brain dead sub.

WAT?!

Go with the PS5. You'll get everything on Gamepass anyway without the need of the actual console.

Correct.
