[QUOTE="bonkmaykr, post: 9826283, member: 565577"] Yeah, the joycons were a real missed opportunity. I guess it's either the shift back towards the hardcore market or the desire to make the Switch more portable which killed it. Switch Lite definitely killed a lot of hopes for joycons to be used to their fullest. I can't see the future, man. Valve loves to keep their decisions secret to prevent what they say from backfiring, so I can't say for sure until it happens. I predicted the Switch would fall off and lose to the Steam Deck because of a number of reasons: [LIST] [*]the Switch doesn't offer the same level of control from users, Deck is a homebrew paradise by comparison. [*]Steam has more games and the Deck is more powerful. [*]Steam Deck has made a name for itself on the internet and gotten pretty popular with the PC crowd. [*]Deck has better controllers for traditional games, which are more common and cater to more people right now than the motion controls craze that was a thing two generations ago. [*]It can also emulate Switch games since it's an x86 tablet PC, which will render the Switch completely pointless once Yuzu and Ryujinx are developed enough to have good enough performance and compatibility. [/LIST] Of course, accessibility is important, which is why I said "if Valve begins marketing the Steam Deck to the broader console market and allows people to buy them without being existing Steam users". Right now it's main audience is existing PC players. That can change in the future, as Deck is more than capable of being an easy upgrade for many console players, it's just a matter of getting them onboard with the purchase. Whether or not Valve ever makes this move is a complete mystery. [/QUOTE]

only ps5 updated to latest firmware can go on psn, jailbroken ones just don't use psn or they risk getting flagged or banned, altho spouting profanity in online play alredy does that
