r/Handhelds

Been using my Legion Go S lately and finally tried matching it with a pair of AR glasses. Ahmmm, I did not expect it to change the experience this much. It does not magically give u better graphics, but the screen feels closer to a 27-inch monitor instead of a tiny handheld. The bigger view makes combat, and action scenes feel like a movie, and everything looks way more intense since the screen basically fills your vision.

There was definitely an adjustment period though. The first 20 minutes felt kind of odd and I got a bit dizzy when I moved my head too much, but my brain got used to it after few tries. What surprised me most is on how it functioned. I expected it wont work well, but I honestly cannot notice problems. Maybe for some players would care, but for single-player games, it feels totally great.

It is also way easier on my neck during long sessions since I do not have to look downward anymore. The only disadvantage is that I would not use it for more than 2 hours straight since your eyes definitely need a break hehe. But for casual gaming with friends or after work or while relaxing after work in bed or on the couch, it is a really fun setup.

I've had a Switch 2 with the Mario Kart pack since last year, but I don't use it much—in fact, almost never not because I think it's a bad console, but because I don't think I'm the target audience.

I own 5 physical games (3 Switch 2 games and 2 original Switch games, each with a Switch 2 update), and 3 digital indie games (Skillksong, Hades 2, and Dead Cells) along with a Pro Controller

I'd like to post an ad to try to trade it for a 1TB Steam Deck OLED, but there are a few issues :

It was submerged in water for a few minutes, but luckily it was in a Nintendo carrying case.

A few months later, it’s working normally; I can insert a game cartridge without any issues. The only thing is that the volume seems lower than usual, and the left Joy-Con started drifting, so I bought a replacement pair, but the new left Joy-Con is drifting too. Other than that, I have nothing else to report.

I was thinking of getting the console repaired at an independent repair shop and buying another pair of Joy-Cons, but I’d have to trade in my Switch 2 for a 1TB Steam Deck at a loss.

Do you think I should get it repaired even if I risk losing hundreds of euros on a potential trade-in, or should I just keep the console even if it’s just gathering dust?

I've had this New 3DS since 2019, I bought it from a very cheap friend, and since he never used it right, this new one.

But I'm worried that unlocking might diminish his value, because all the games I have in him are original to his late Eshop.

Could anyone help me? And maybe help me figure out what its value would be in the market?

I have no interest in selling, but I don't know tomorrow, and if necessary, I will have to sell.

I modified the combination I wrote in the title to make it more useful and turned it into a console. I installed PS1, PSP, N64, and SNES emulators, and it's working perfectly for me right now. It's also very useful for GeForce Now and Android games. I was considering buying an Anbernic, etc., but the combination I have largely met my needs. I also have a Switch OLED, and my console needs are closed for a few years. I'm open to questions and suggestions.

Hand made by my wife for our anniversary. She knows me well.

Probably going to install Steam OS on this. I wanted a Steam Deck but due to stock shortages all the 2nd hand ones in my area were ridiculously overpriced.

My PS Vita PCH 2001 and PSP 1001 models next to the hulking GPD Win 5 AI Max+ 395 64gb version. Wanted to go for the Onexplayer Apex but decided against it for the aesthetics of this one.

What should I get next? (I definitely don’t need anymore.)

I recently tried connecting my Switch to my RayNeo glasses using an HDMI adapter and honestly it’s way cooler than I expected. It feels like you’re playing on a huge screen floating right in front of you, even if you’re just sitting in a cafe or traveling somewhere.

I took the setup with me on a short trip and it actually made gaming a lot more comfortable. Not having to stare down at the small Switch screen the whole time was great for my neck. The only real downside is that the glasses and adapter drain battery pretty fast, so bringing a power bank is pretty much necessary.

The setup isn’t perfect since there are extra cables involved and it takes up a bit more space in your bag, but once you start playing, it’s honestly hard to go back to the normal handheld experience.👍😎

I might be the minority in preferring the slim model to the OG. This one was super clean too, hardly a scratch on it. Right analog needs to be replaced due to drift, but otherwise it's been playing great!

I was about to get legion go 2 z2 extreme BUT i am only interested to play games THATS WHY WE ARE BUYING THIS SYSTEMSSSSSSS .... Sooooo.... I find out battery of legion go 2 z2e last 1.5h to max 2h of playtime..... Sooooo .... Yes its GREAT if you going to use all the possible furthest BUT ... XAX 2.5–3.5 hours (in my opinion is more than that)..Soooo … why pay more to play less? So i decided to get XAX z2e = Rog Xbox Ally X (Z2 Extreme) .... For a $1000 + $300 of 3 years guaranteed + ($29 for 1year support if i have any questions )
GOOD LUCK
