This is useful for countries where the Steam Deck is unavailable but other handhelds aren’t. Here in Australia, Steam Decks are only available as grey imports, and that makes warranty issues a potential headache, but you can walk into most electronic retailers and buy a ROG Ally off the shelf.
That said, I personally wouldn’t buy a handheld that didn’t have touchpads, so I bought a grey import and have had no issues.

Playing Windows only games from the epic store on a steam deck running Linux is a weird but pretty awesome flex. Emulating Nintendo games on it is the ultimate fuck you to Nintendo.
