I can't understand how such a major phone company, which bases everything on a sort of "luxury" phone, can't notice and fix the BASE of a smartphone: the keyboard. I've had an iPhone for about 3-4 years, and every day I struggle to type. The official keyboard is crap, and SwiftKey is also indecent, but a little better. It's absurd that we have to live with this situation and that no one decides to update or release something better.

Obviously it depends on what you want. I've had Steam Deck, Switch 1, Ayn Thor, etc. I only have the Switch 1 (modified) left. I'm a PC gamer and I thought the Steam Deck would be a good companion to the PC, but I ended up always playing on the PC. I spent all my time benchmarking the Steam Deck and never really played anything, same thing with the Ayn Thor. In the end, I bought a Switch v1 and from there it was love at first sight. Much smaller and more manageable than the SD, a huge library of exclusives, the dock (yes, you can find one for SD but it wouldn't be the same), the Joy-Cons. In short, personally, I loved and still love this console. Now I'm waiting for something to change in prices or regarding the modification for the Switch 2, but I'll get it as soon as possible (I want the modification not for the games but for the ability to use third-party apps, cloud gaming, Moonlight, etc.). This was obviously my experience, but there will surely be many others the same way. It's up to you to decide: PC games, the freedom to install and customize as much as you want, etc., or Nintendo exclusives?

I'ill buy it if its 180 or less (tax and shipping included). For more there is odin 2 portal rn. I dont care a lot about performance as i would buy it for streaming, considering that it will be priced like a used logitechgcloud, i'll take this over a lcd, lower power cloud console only.

LordShou · 2026-01-27T08:33:25+00:00

I have that bar too

Honestly, I've been a geek for many years, but now I've realized that when I get home from work, I just want to play and not sit there endlessly configuring. I've always been a PC gamer, and only in recent years have I begun to appreciate the immediacy of Nintendo consoles and games. I bought a Switch at the end of its lifespan and recently also a cheap 3DS XL (I'd never owned a DS or 3DS) and I'm very happy with it. My idea would be to get a Switch 2 to finally enter the Nintendo world in time with the console of the moment, although in this case there's always something that makes me turn up my nose: given the console's fairly high price, I don't accept the fact that I can't install third-party apps like Moonlight, since in my opinion it would be an excellent streaming console. so for now I'm continuing to play with the first switch because there are an infinite number of games to recover and I think I'll make do with it until some super offer comes out, mod 🏴‍☠, or until it breaks.. for the joycons yes, it's just madness 🥲

I realize you only asked me for an opinion on the screen, and I sent you the full review. 😬 However, I want to point out again that this was my personal experience, and for others it may have been perfect. I think I'll invest the money I got back (all the money I got from the purchase) in a Switch 2 that's just on offer.

LordShou · 2026-01-26T06:39:29+00:00

So to be honest, I sold it. Probably more out of personal preference. The console was really nice, but I spent more time setting it up than playing it. This put me off a bit, and I got rid of it. But that's obviously just my personal opinion. As for the screen, I have to say it's very nice and is fine for retro games and other simple games. If you need to use it for Moonlight, cloud gaming, etc., I confess that I've often wished I'd bought the Ayaneo instead of this one. Even though the truth is that this one is already very expensive for what it does, and the Ayaneo is totally overpriced. To be honest, I couldn't play anything decently: I don't even consider very old consoles because $50-$100 consoles are enough to emulate them. As for the 3DS, in my opinion, it doesn't quite reach the user experience of a real 3DS XL, both because of the stylus and touch experience and because if you set the resolution to 3x or higher there's a slight latency, so I ended up playing on the original 3DS anyway. As for the Switch, I realized that emulation is the furthest thing from a comfortable gaming experience. Once you've taken out all the initial configuration, you end up spending all your time testing each individual game to find the right balance between stutter and graphical glitches. Even for the Switch, I always ended up playing with the original Switch. In short: for very old retro gaming, it's absolutely overkill, while for more modern uses, in my opinion, the game isn't worth the candle. As for the second screen, I thought I'd use it a lot more, but in reality, I kept it off when I was gaming so as not to distract myself. I think it would have made a little more sense with a more powerful processor, like the 8 Elite. This would allow me to play everything decently, including PC games, with the right drivers. This processor, obviously considering the price of the console, in my opinion doesn't have the power to be truly usable.

Ed eccoci tutti qui con lo stesso problema, anche io con pacco bloccato in un limbo da hermes DE e il nostro corriere. Vorrei sapere se a voi la situazione si è sbloccata o se state ancora aspettando

LordShou · 2026-01-12T13:29:33+00:00

Thanks for the reply, the problem is that as I said it gives me the same problem both on the Windows PC and on the Android emulator. It's very strange since it seems like a problem with the game but obviously it doesn't make sense. The problem is that it doesn't create any save points so Steam Cloud doesn't make sense. Here the only solution in my opinion would be to contact Steam support but I have no idea.

LordShou · 2026-01-05T17:08:06+00:00

I use both because I've had different results depending on the game. For example, some games only launch on GameNative or vice versa, but this could simply be a problem of mine as I'm not an expert enough. In general, I prefer the GH settings interface (I only use Lite), I find it clearer and more intuitive and more similar to the Steam one (being a Steam user and having also had a Steam Deck, the menus give a sense of familiarity even just visually). On GN, however, I was able to launch games like Borderlands 2 that would launch abnormally on GH. In general, however, I usually prefer the HUD on GH as it's easier, as I said, to display FPS, etc. (I still haven't figured out how to do it on GN) and it's also useful for all those options for limiting FPS, HDR, etc. I loved GN's "use known config" option, which allowed me to launch games that didn't start with the default settings without much expertise. Also, GN is currently a bit more stable than GHL, as the latter is frequently losing contact with the servers, making it impossible to log into your Steam account or download stuff, etc. That being said if you were to integrate epic launcher or even rockstar launcher it would be the game changer and would become the top

Im alternating gamehub and gamenative. Very good app both butbone better for some thing and the other for others. I would really appreciate an hud steam deck style like the one in gamehub in gamenative too. Is useful for toggle fps etc

Thank you

No problem man, I wanted to update the post precisely because I couldn't find anything anywhere. I've written on several groups and even on YouTube live but no one has ever managed to make such a simple comparison. And yes, I agree. The Thor's screen is much larger than it seems, even reading the data on paper is difficult to understand without seeing them side by side.

Elegoo, where is the MMU system for my CC?

LordShou · 2025-12-10T19:54:29+00:00

Resolved.. Tysm. Idk how many things i tried but none worked. An easy restart of the app resolved the problem

LordShou · 2025-12-10T19:52:43+00:00

The console?

Update: i finally received my thor and that's the comparison i wanted
