Best switch console is still the steam deck I’m sure :3

Given the switch2 is going to cost more, definitely.

Also games are going to be $80 apparently :(

How good is it? Does everything work like on the deck?

Yea, except:

  • KDE’s built in screen keyboard is broken (Using Steam’s keyboard). GNOME keyboard does work fine.

  • Autologin is on and screen locking is off due to a broken keyboard.

  • Manual installation if hhd, steam, flatpak, lutris may required a physical keyboard for first setup.

  • KDE wallet is on to protect (non-file) data. (Wifi passwords, chrome/Firefox login, etc…)

  • JamesDSP is used as pulse/easyEffects may need a reset as the audio may “break” when resuming from suspend.

I didn’t want a non-vanilla Debian system (Bazzite), so I chose to manually install Debian and have a nice Debian setup. Besides those issues, everything works pretty good (no crashes, hiccups.)

Are you interested in Debian on a legion Go?

Either that, or the powerful gaming PC you put the Switch 2 money towards that will eventually emulate the Switch 2. Seems like a better investment than buying a locked down console with a GPU less powerful than a RTX 3050 that can only play $80 games.
