Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting A Switch OLED Or Valve Steam Deck?

@BloodNinja I was more thinking from your general consumer point of view, they likely wont be changing the OS.

I do think Valve need to be selling this in more places than just the valve store to attract a wider audience though.

As I say, I would like one, but I would want the best model so want to wait for some reviews and to see if Valve will support this long term, I think this could be the hardware device that finally works for Valve.

The more thought I have put into this the more I think I will just stick to my laptop for Steam, Maybe if the reviews for the Steam Deck are fantastic and it seems like Valve will support this in the long run I will buy it next year.

I actually don't see the Steam Deck being in direct competition with Nintendo, I actually see it as more Valve trying to lock more people into the steam eco system and away from GOG, Epic games etc.

Also with this Poll what you have to think, is most people on this site will already own a switch, the oled switch will be more appealing to new switch owners and those with a launch switch like myself that's showing its age.

Got the white OLED pre-ordered. I am interested in the Steam Deck, but Valve dont have the greatest track record when it comes to supporting the hardware they release, I am also wondering how hot this thing is going to be when running, also Quite a large proportion of my steam library does not support a controller, key board and mouse only so will be curious to how this issue is dealt with and the QA that was released was oddly vague about this. I have a feeling this is going to be one of those sounds good in practice but not in execution situations.

Re: Where To Pre-Order Nintendo Switch OLED Model

Amazon got some more stock today so I managed to grab a pre-order. This is perfect for me as I only ever play in Handheld mode and My launch model is getting on in age now.

The OLED on PS VITA was and still is amazing so I am expecting great things from the image quality on this.

Quite a few games I am after:

Tekken Tag Tournament.
New Super Mario Bros. U
Ninja Gaiden 3
Nintendo Land
Pikmin 3
Game and Wario
Sonic All Star Racing
ZombiU
Rayman Legends
Batman Arkham City (Must be the only person alive to have still not played this game)

My poor wallet, better start trying to get more hours in at work. But seriously I think this is a good launch line up. I remember the N64 and the fact it was only released with 4 games!!! And only 2 were good.
