I need a decent handheld for emulation and I think steam deck is the best choice out of all the options available, the other option I had in mind was the retroid pocket 4 pro but for that price (200 dollars) I might as well save up for another week and get a steam deck (500 dollars).

My problem is I don’t really like spending money at all, I have three issues with spending

1.) Money makes me horny

2.) Money can go to my savings account where it would be safer

3.) Stannis Baratheon crack pipe

I have been enjoying my miyoo mini plus but the system maxes out at PS1 and ideally I want to be playing PS2 emulation

PS2 is awesome on this thing. I actually sold my gaming PC and just dock it and use it for everything. Performance is low on modern games, but it's so cool to have my whole library with me everywhere (i've been traveling for a month and a half). I don't think I would recommend it unless you're looking to play some steam games as well though.

What's the latest generation system you want to emulate through? That would inform whether advising to save on something cheaper or not makes sense.
