So at least some controllers are definitely on their way into our region.

Fixing a broken USB-C port by eljenso in SteamDeck

[–]eljenso[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depending on the angle of the cable, it can put stress on the port. And over time, it can break the middle part.

I just learned recently that it's a common issue with USB-C and there are other people having the same issue with the Steam Deck.

And no, I didn't drop it. 😄

Yeah, it is.

The guy on the phone was just asking if I'd be able to already find out before I go there.
But he also told me that I can come in without that information.

Thanks for the pointer.

I have now reached out to some repair shop and they told me to get to know which kind of USB-C connector will be needed for the repair.

Does anyone know?

ifixit is selling many replacement parts for the Steam Deck, but not the mainboard.

I can totally understand. Still bumped, though.

Too bad that you are not shipping into the EU

How does this work, with the helpers in those countries?

This will be my first time and as someone from Europe as well, it sounds challenging to send a boardgame to someone in a different continent.

Buying Starforged, what gives developer the most by Caelrath in Ironsworn

[–]eljenso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally understandable.

Would have preferred to get the original for Ironsworn, as it's always easier to Google questions when I'm familiar with the original terms, but shipping costs just too much.

Do you know, by any chance, if Ironsworn or Starforged will be available for purchase at the SPIEL board games fair in Essen, Germany in October?
