Just to preface, I have bias as a person who got a steam deck day 1 and love it with no plans of getting a switch 2 .
That being said it’s definitely on a per-person basis. The big differences are how comfortable you are with small “tinkering” because things work on the steam deck but small adjustments aren’t uncommon and how okay you are with not having Nintendo games like Mario Kart.
If you’re cool with both of those then I’d say Steam Deck! Otherwise waiting for the switch 2 is probably the move!
Not the most searchable since it’s main use is through it’s api (I use it through retrodeck/ES-DE which is for ROM libraries) but screenscraper.fr contains scans of boxart, title art, videos from the games, manuals that used to come with physical copies and a lot more.
If you want retro ROMs, I can’t help you since I don’t know if I can link to those types of sites but ask on !piracy and check their wiki linked at the top of the community.
I’m a collector of physical games, but with the last couple of models of PS5 lacking a disc drive and Nintendo’s Screwball “Game Key Card” situation with Switch 2, the writing is on the wall when it comes to physical games media. I just recently got a Steam Deck LCD model (I don’t need OLED) and couldn’t be happier. I don’t see myself getting a Switch 2 unless maybe it’s years down the road, pre-owned and with at least three decent exclusives (one would have to be a “Zelda BOTW 3”.) But no, Nintendo pissed away all their goodwill they built up as the common folk’s console with the OG Switch
Określenie powstało w latach 90-tych kiedy problem mafii kibolskich i przemocy na ulicach był tysiąc razy większy niż dzisiaj. Media publiczne wtedy razem z policją, ngosami i władzami prowadziły kampanie przeciw przemocy i w ramach tej kampanii wymyślono słowo “pseudokibice”, które dziennikarze używali przy opisywaniu różnych kibolskich ekscesów. To przykład miękkiej socjotechniki.
eee, no nie wiem, czy jak ktoś wbiegnie na murawę i zepsuje spotkanie to jest tru fanem sportu xd
Już nie wspomnę, że pewnie więcej okazji na kibicowanie jest jak nie masz zakazu stadionowego. Ogólnie bicie innych kibiców się niekoniecznie na kibicowanie przekłada.
archive.org has old media of all sorts including game magazines, demos trailers and manuals.
a lot of video material has been uploaded to youtube, that was formerly hosted elsewhere. hell i’ve watched the old eoLithic frag movie from like 2002 a week ago.
vimm’s lair is also worth a visit if your are looking for old game manuals.
Yeah I’ve sometimes used all those sites at some point, but they’re so vast (or have only manuals, like vimm’s lair). I was interested in finding something a bit more curated and game-oriented.
Nintendo is a terrible, anti-consumer company. Unless you simply can’t control yourself when it comes to their first party franchises, the Steam Deck is far and away the better choice.
ALL the gaming console companies are, INCLUDING steam once gaben dies. Even currently you dont actually own your games on steam like you would a physical copy, you have to download a crack to play your steam games without steam.
You are right. Unless the world starts to enshrine digital ownership laws very, very soon, things will get bad. They already are bad, but they could be, and will be, far worse in the not-to-distant future.
True, but Steam deck lets you boot into the Linux desktop environment of the os and you can do whatever you want with it. I have installed games and emulators outside of steam on mine pretty easily.
You could probably even put a different Linux OS on it entirely if you wanted to.
That control over the platform was the biggest selling point for me. More control even than the windows based handhelds.
