      Yeah, people focus too much on the power of these things and not the functionality. Steam OS is a killer app compared to trying to squeeze windows onto a handheld. The options it gives you for system level control of performance or control set ups is priceless when dealing with PC titles. The fact that I can load up a 90s DOS shooter designed to be played with a keyboard alone and have it working with a pad within minutes is great.

      When I first got used to the steam controller, it was the best I’d ever used. Valve managed to improve upon it with the Index and Deck. I hate gaming at a friend’s house and having to go back to what amounts to a standard controller these days.
