Specifically on Deck, I think I’ve been relegated to just Pokemon Rejuvenation, Baba Is You, and Gemcraft Frostborn Wrath.

I tried getting gyro controls working for Dolphin to play the 2 Sonic book based games, but I can’t figure it out with my stupidity and cannot find a used compatible USB or bluetooth IFR sensor online for the wii remote I can connect to my deck.

Yeah, looks like one of those gacha games, so I really don’t think OLED Deck or desktop Linux users are missing literally anything whatsoever.

As soon as I saw KMT, I knew immediately what was up.

…resin buttons with real bugs inside…

You completely lost me there. Don’t come looking or I will torch the place with a lighter.

As an avid bug hater (creepy crawlies are not for me, ever), I would never use something like that. The metal and stone buttons? Yeah, maybe, depending on price, but definitely not the bug resin buttons.

Some of the only games I could think of are other lego games or something like the Scribblenauts series, for its puzzle solving that doesn’t have a single solution and encourages creativity.

I think the last 3 games I’ve been playing were Mindustry (docked because otherwise that game would be a nightmare for me to set up controls for), Gemcraft Frostborn Wrath, and Pokemon Rejuvenation (they’re pretty much the only fan game I know of that has a native Linux port and I absolutely LOVE the devs for that).

If it was good old trying to weed out the commies McCarthyism, I’d be all down for it. Now I ain’t because it ain’t communism that’s the enemy.

Not enough college financial aid left for me to be able to, otherwise I’d have to look at my wishlist and see what’s available for a good price.

Can absolutely vouch for Chuzzke Deluxe. Only problem I have with it now is that last I checked, some of the settings don’t work if you are on Linux and using proton. Mainly just the setting for windowed mode, if I remember correctly. But that’s a minor thing considering how cheap the game is on Steam.

Edit:

It’s $4.99USD, so it’s not really that expensive, but I for some reason thought it was a slightly lower price. Still recommended if you don’t mind spending that little amount to pick it up.

Pretty sure the last thing I played on it, when I had the time and drive during the week, was Sonic Mania. Absolutely love that game.

Only things I use are, if docked, are a 3rd party wired switch “pro” controller (both because of the controller itself and because of the headphone jack on it), and an as needed my Bluetooth trackball mouse and the wired keyboard I use for my desktop.

The only other things I really have for it for accessories would be the case it came with (if you count that) and a USB C to USB male connector I got before I had a dock (for plugging in a thumb drive when undocked to more discretely move downloaded files or don’t have internet access because I’m in a vehicle (mobile hotspot absolutely sucks)).

Just like the original, I refuse to watch the sequel because their 3D model for Ne Zha makes them, to me at least, look like an ugly gremlin creature that crawled out of a cave and has just started joining civilization. Movies like Legend of Hei definitely have the better looking depiction of Ne Zha in my opinion.

Considering I got mine fixed less than a month ago and haven’t been using it at much, I’d hope the battery would be at 100% health. Not 100% sure since I haven’t been on desktop mode since getting it back, though.

Before mine started to have problems and I had to send it in for repairs, I would definitely have to say either my dock or 3rd party switch controller, if that counts.

With the dock, official, I knew I had something I could use to just plug into a TV and call it good. Allowed me to go through Dead Money in New Vegas on the TV in my room, so I could have a better view of what was going on compared to the tiny screen.

And if the controller counts, I absolutely love using it in general even if I’m not playing games because of the headphone jack at the bottom that allowed me to be up in the middle of the night, listening to music (either in game or on desktop mode) without having to worry about the apartment above or my family hearing what I’m listening to. It’s USB too, so no battery to worry about when I had my deck docked, especially since I’m not a big bluetooth fan and only use it pretty much when absolutely necessary.

Definitely planned on contacting support later when I have enough time to sit down with my deck and try a few things first. And if nothing works or if warranty doesn’t cover whatever is going on, I planned on just using that specific deck as a micro desktop and wait to see if I could get a refurbished replacement as an absolute worst case scenario when financial aid for next college quarter comes in, if the price of getting it fixed isn’t cheaper.

Tried plugging it in directly to the charger that came with it for a while and still didn’t work. That was one thing I tried after looking up videos that didn’t help at all. Might try again considering I don’t know how long I left it plugged in.

1. Turns off immediately when unplugged and also turns on immediately on when plugged in.

2. On gaming mode, full. On desktop mode, 96% not charging despite showing charging icon on battery icon.

3. 100% battery health.

Totally forgot that messing with internals can invalidate warranty on most electronics. Thanks for reminding me. Definitely gonna do a reset, then, to ensure it’s not just that, before going the hardware route.

While looking up warranty info, I stumbled upon the ifixit stuff and planned on following their guide, so I’m at least good there.

I didn’t try because there were a couple ribbony clip things on top of it and I didn’t feel comfortable removing them, but I’ll try that next chance I get.
