The LCD one is 512GB which hasn’t been an issue for them so far. They mostly just play valheim and portal/portal2, sticky business and snakeybus. I figure once they get older they will have access to more games and will need more space. But I’m hoping at that point they are involved financially in the purchase so they will have some control over what they get.
I bought two steam decks of which one was at launch and the other was the limited edition OLED one. Both of which get daily use. My kids play them regularly. I play them regularly. If my wife wants to get another computer in the future, I would probably recommend she get something cheap and buy a steam deck to game on. It works quite well for northgard!
My kids (7 and 6) enjoy valheim, Lego Star wars, deaths door, portal 2 and spiritfarer
Northgard primarily! It’s been wearing my trackpad smooth.
I would just like to see more games be a bit friendlier with settings. Give me some real potato settings or focus a bit more on optimization so I can play stuff without having to futz with settings so much.
I keep getting lost! But then I find secrets I walked by and vacuums I can pet so it’s worth it. But the colours can be really difficult. I find I use the flashlight quite a bit while exploring. I’ve been playing half on the OLED steam deck and the other half on my PC(standard LED) and the colours seem better on the steam deck.

I have set up a steam family and created accounts for my kids. Other than only having one copy of some games or games not supporting family sharing it’s been great. I have control over the games they can see in their libraries and we can all play different or the same game with enough licenses at the same time. We often play valheim together.
