The OLED is super tempting, limited edition even more so, but this is going to be the standard that Valve goes with for the next iteration of the Deck. I already gave in to the Switch OLED back when that came out and I still mostly play Switch in the dock.
I’m a massive OLED believer and knew I needed the beautiful blacks @ 90hz immediately. LE let’s gooooo!
My PRECIOUS!!! (I ordered but selling my LCD to a friend for dirt cheap so he can have fun too)
“I was wondering what would break first, your spirit or your body.”
i stopped after smashing the purchase button for 20 min. i was only a little sad. then a story popped up about how steam had issues but said they were resolved.
lo and behold, i check my cart and the limited edition is still there, temptress of the decks. i was able to get it in less than a min.
i am not as strong as Galadriel
I have it sitting in my cart. I keep thinking it will say sold out any minute but it’s still there hours later… I barely use my current deck. Mainly because the screen but also because the performance on newer games is bad. So idk if this will be enough. But the screen is the ugliest screen I’ve ever owned. To me it’s even worse than the OG switch.
I asked myself if I could wait 2 more years to see my games on OLED. For me, the answer was no. I sold my Deck on ebay today. Hopefully the wife dossnt realize I upgraded!
I put the 512 oled in my cart and saw the message saying I was being put on a wait list (when server crashed) then I removed it and didn’t go back on steam. I’ll wait for a hardware upgrade. Hopefully if/when my deckhd screen arrives it’ll hold me over longer till then
I mean, who are we kidding. You’ve chosen wisely.
If only I had waited a couple more months I wouldn’t have to wait 10,000 years to download something and have my steam deck die to elden ring in 15 minutes.
Ends up not buying it. I can’t take advantage of it also performance isn’t there yet.
If I could play Elden Ring at 60fps with 2 hours+ battery life then maybe. Considering screen is only 720p performance are poor.
Also price is very high. £500 for SD vs £400 for PS5 or gaming laptop or PC around £650 with 5x more performance you can play all AAA games at 1080p-4K.
Welp, let me make a sign that says “Long live Sauron!” And stick it in my front yard.
