And they probably cost $80 total, if that.
Wait Those games will be all supported on the switch 2
Yes
Thatβs kind of interesting
Considering that it wonβt be wider than the current switch
Top be fair it is hardware that is 8 years newer than the first switch.
Still impressive
... I'm struggling to understand what you mean by "wider". As in the physical size? It is slightly larger, but even so why is that a factor?
Yup sorry, what I meant was "thicker"
To fit in larger components, for exemple a bigger heatsink or fan
Steam Deck is straight superior to the Switch.
Even if the hardware doesn't match up, why the hell would I want to spend $450+ on a handheld computer that I can't use as a handheld computer?
No, I will buy the handheld computer I can use to play games, or choose to use as a handheld computer that I can install whatever software on it I want.
Fuck consoles and corporate control over how you can use your gaming devices, fuck that this ever got normalized.
Buy a steam deck and forget giving Nintendo money.
Yes.
Is that on top mangohud? If yes, how can it be setup horizontally?
Mangohud on the Deck has different layouts built in, the 3rd option iirc is horizontal. There's also a Decky plugin to let you create custom mangohud layouts from inside game mode.
~/.config/MangoHud/MangoHud.conf
## UI
position=top
horizontal
...the rest of your config
You don't have to set it up. It's built in.
Add
legacy_layout=false
horizontal
to your Mangohud.conf
Goverlay is a good GUI for changing the mangohud config
That's built into the software. It's on the right side menu
