- Comment on Microsoft Gaming CEO: “I think we should have a handheld, too” 3 weeks ago:
Windows 8 was an attempt to do all that already, though I don’t know that it succeeded. My guess is that this sort of handheld will run a stripped down version of Windows running the Xbox app.

Windows is already the handheld version of Windows but it’s kind of terrible at it.

Bazzite is basically this with open hardware. A first party Valve version doesn’t make as much sense compared to a handheld like the Steam Deck.

It’s still a little clunky with a controller but the touch screen really helps to fill in the gaps. I also map the paddle buttons to zoom in and out since that’s really important.
It wouldn’t take much to make it much more controller friendly. Maybe another ten years of development time. 😀

I’m exaggerating for comedic effect. I have ~300 hours in PZ all on the Steam Deck. Not the game I was expecting to play on it but it works pretty well.

This is only because they exclude me as an outlier putting in ten thousand hours of Project Zomboid on the Deck.
- Comment on SteamOS alternative Bazzite v2.2 out now with lots of enhancements 5 months ago:
This is great to hear. I’ve been considering a setup like this. I’ll have to try this out.
Eventually I’d like to build a new desktop exclusively for gaming to keep near my media center and then just use a docked laptop for productivity work. Currently I just have a long HDMI cable run to the TV which mostly works until I want to do something on my computer while in the middle of a game.

Pretty sure at least a million of those pets for Scratch are from me.

A better screen at a higher resolution will change performance targets.
- Comment on Steam Deck and Dock Are On Sale for Steam's 20th Anniversary 9 months ago:
No, but I bought a third party one that stopped working, returned it and bought the official dock which is still working.
