    It’s a base model. I’m going to keep using it as long as I can as-is, I don’t really have the spare mental bandwidth to tinker (nor the budget to rectify any mistakes), but it’s cool that they can be jailbroken.

    Whenever I’m finally done with it, it’ll probably be time for a Steam Deck (probably some time after the release of the SD2, knowing me).

      I hear you. Took me some time get it working myself, but there’s also a plug-and-play solution as well. Got it for like 20€ off AliExpress for convenience’s sake, so I don’t have to connect a PC to run the jailbreak every time.

      Ooh, cool! I see the appeal, but apart from my teen years, I haven’t been much of a PC gamer. Or rather I never bought any games on Steam which I could run on a SD. You probably have a big enough library? And will you be getting the dock too?

        I don’t know if mine counts as a big library, I’m fairly patient and choosy with my games but it’s ended up being a couple dozen over the years. I prefer to appreciate games as art but I also do it to bond with my kid. Trying to get him more into emulators and retro stuff.
