Hello, everybody! I want to have a little mini-PC for gaming that operates like a console. I don’t want to have a big, clunky case in the back or front of the TV. Furthermore, I don’t play many AAA titles from recent years, so the hardware doesn’t need to be high-end. It would be nice if I could run Scarlet Nexus, Nier: Automata, and Horizon Zero Dawn at a stable 60 FPS. The graphics don’t need to be extreme; I just want to enjoy the game.
Also recommend some great distro’s for gaming.
Fully recommend a Steam Deck as well. Only difference is that I can’t recommend a Bluetooth controller since it can’t wake it due to a Bluetooth limitation. If you use a USB dongle controller it can wake it. Unfortunately the Xbox wireless controller adapter is not officially supported, and you need to install the drivers manually (and after each update to the Steam Deck). I’m sure there are good options out there for USB dongle controllers, but I have just been doing the Xbox controller driver install, so I haven’t looked for them.
