My laptop is old enough to vote, and therefore anything beyond Stardew Valley made it collapse, but it works great for my daily tasks. However, after trying a Switch recently (I consider the Lite to be the perfect handheld, size wise), I got an itch that could only be scratched with more games.

I found a second hand Deck for a reasonable price and I CAN'T BELIEVE I WAS MISSING SO MANY THINGS.

Particularly I've been amazed by No Man's Sky, because I can see other players!!!! And visit them!!!!!! I can't do that on Switch!

I'm also enjoying Witcher 3 and Rimworld!

Discovering that the SD can be used as a computer too, with all the bells and whistles has been very fun.

My one and greatest complaint is its size... I get that it's necessary to add such a big amount of buttons, but my fingers are getting a full workout trying to remain in position.

Still, amazing, amazing machine!!

(Y'all can feel my enthusiasm levels by counting the amount of "!" In this text)
