Retro Game Corps has just posted a 30 day review of the Ally. As someone who has pre-ordered I found it quite interesting. As expected, the major down side to this device is the battery. Fortunately, my main reason for purchasing this is to do some gaming on my commute to work. As I’m only on the subway for 25 min, this should cover my needs perfectly, regardless of the game I play.
I wish some Steam Deck alternatives would also include trackpads into the design, since I’ve liked not having to rely solely on touch screen interactions for desktop navigation.
I’m wondering if Valve got a patent on that. That would explain why literally no one has ever done trackpads on a controller.
