  • I’m torn. On one hand, $60 is an incredible introductory price for the 4 GB model. On the other hand, it still falls behind the Orange Pi 5, which can be found for very reasonable prices similar to the 8 GB model, and is still even more powerful. There’s no doubt the community support will be outstanding as it always has been for the Raspberry Pi, but as somebody who’s seeking out the highest performance for x86/64 gaming (box86 and box64), I don’t know if I could justify getting a weaker SBC. I still might grab a couple of the 8 GB models to add to my proxmox cluster…








  • I agree about the Nintendo exclusive games, but the price is about the same. 320 US dollars gets you a refurbished 64 GB steam deck, which is basically the same price as the standard Switch and even cheaper than the OLED model. Not to mention all the great sales and cheap keys you can get

    Edit: I do own both, I’ve had a switch since launch day, so I recognize the power that the first party exclusives have. I certainly don’t hate on the switch by any means
