Well I have Hades on both my Oled switch and now on Steam Deck via Epic and let me tell you... The oled version just blows it away lol. Bit higher rez on the Steam Deck and works great.
Might have to dig in the settings to see if I can get it looking better.
That said once you start playing you don't really notice it.

Damn. I just reserved about a week ago for the $650 one. It said estimated Nov/Dec availability I think..

Really struggling to pick what to play. (I've played a little Hades, Mad Max, PREY, Sonic All Stars Racing, UMvC3, and Disco Elysium so far. They all work great though PREY is a little wonky getting used to the controls)
I wanted to play through Divinity OS Enhanced Edition because I've only ever put like 4 hours into it. Wanted to be able to play on steam deck then move over to my 3090 and UW when the little shit is sleeping.
Unfortunately I have the game on GOG and it's been a pain in the ass getting the controls to work (finally did if anyone needs help) and I still haven't figured out cross saves yet lol. Trying to use Lutris but it's just been a struggle. I probably would have given up but I have quite a few games on there.
The next big Steam sale is probably going to hurt my wallet.

Got my 512 and spent the weekend dialing in my RetroArch settings, emu's and roms. This is the best damn emu machine I have ever owned. Jsaux docks shows up next week. I've done quite a bit of Vampire Survivors also. Runs great but once you hit the 20 minute mark (in VS) or so the fans kick in to the max speed.

they are CRANKING these things out now, my buddy put his name in the hat for a 64gb preorder on Sept 12th, he got the order email on Sept 29th and ordered, and its being delivered tomorrow. 3 weeks from click to delivery, and it'll probably get even quicker.
thats the 64gb version though ($399), no clue if the 512gb is a bit longer since it has a few more pricey parts (bigger SSD, etched screen protector... neither really worth the extra $300)

steam decks are now all caught up, if you order on today it'll ship in a day or two. also they released the steam dock, $90
I have the jsaux dock, only used it once works fine. i can't really see why i'd want to hook my deck up to my monitor and kbm, instead i just use steamlink to remote control it on my desktop, but i guess if you don't have a desktop PC it would be really cool to have as a single PC, especially if you dual boot into windows.

Had to do a bunch of errands this week including 1 hour at wife's doctor and 3 hours at mechanic today and steam deck was amazing, played hours of Vampire Survivors, Rogue Genesia, and OG Monkey Island 1 SE and it was such a blast. Perfect little hand held to fuck around on when away from home, battery was great after a few hours was down to 30% or so and I have a 10k mA battery that would recharge it (while playing) if I need.
