That’s why I bought two 😅
Lost mine to my wife within 5 minutes of getting TotK running in Yuzu, that was weeks ago.
What in the world were you expecting? Of course they do! It’s the ultimate handheld gaming machine, running a full-fledged PC operating system and capable of playing almost anything a PC can. I would have loved a device like that when I was little.
They’ve already taken the SX, the PS5 and the Switch. I’m not even going to let them have a sniff of the Steamdeck.
Once my eldest gets her hands on it I’ll never see it again.
My girlfriend but yeah. I’m happy she enjoys it, but that was not the plan :D
“Oh, you’ve got old school Nintendo games too?”
I ended up setting up a couple of emulators on an old laptop so I could have it back. She’s more of a gamer than I am and I’ve just about got her convinced to grab a deck for remote play on her PS5. If I don’t convince her soon I’m getting a second one because I know I’m gonna lose it again once she’s done with NES.
Set her up with Chrono Trigger for SNES once she’s done with NES era and you’ll have about four days all to yourself to plan more defenses, such as Final Fantasy and Metroid
I’ve already got the emulator and the most of the SNES games downloaded (I grabbed a big pack of them). It’s just currently not where she can see it because, as you said, I’m playing for time.
It’s really only one night a week when she comes by after we get drunk at the bar that we play at the same time. So I’d have like 4 weeks where I wouldn’t need to worry about it. Plus I’ve got a few two player games where I can dock it and we can play together. That’ll buy me another couple of weeks. By then either I’ll have her convinced or I’ll just shell out the cash for a second one.
