Cases, docks, controller, usb dongles, etc. Anything you use to improve your deck experience that isn’t the deck itself.
Everything from this 2023 reddit post
- 65w usb charger
- usb-c cable
- slim usb-c hub from anker
- piece of string, to turn the box into a cradle
i also carry in my purse:
- 3d-printed microsd organizer
- small bag of usb adapters, for charging friends’ phones or connecting a flash drive, etc
- dualshock 4 controller, modded with back buttons, a usb-c port, and a phone holder
- slim mouse and folding keyboard
I used to carry a battery pack but its heavy and rarely used, so now I just carry a second usb-c cable and a c-to-c extender and hopefully i’ll be able to reach an outlet.
Probably one of the least flashy accessories, but I bought a 10 foot long USB-C cable that lets me sit anywhere on the sofa and play without battery anxiety.
got protetors and steams dock. dock was disapointing.
agreed, i prefer third party docks to the official one, especially if you want to put a silicone case on your deck.
I mostly play handheld, and I got a gaming pillow from Mechanism. It sits on my lap and holds the deck at the right height and angle. My hands used to fall asleep from squeezing the deck to hold it up, and this has solved it. I would play docked more often if I had a controller with rear buttons.
Literally nothing haha
Jsaux mod case for travel/backpack, 25000mwh battery pack, USB hub for connecting to tv and Bluetooth dongle for Xbox controller. Considering 3d printing something for the rear buttons as I find them a little shallow/hard to press. And spring for a microSD for emulator games expansion.
It really, really doesn’t need very much in the way of accessories, if you find this and are planning to get one, I’d recommend getting it first and figure out then what you want after using it a bit.
@Fubarberry for on the go i have a foldable bt keyboard with trackpad and, if i feel fancy, a little projector that can be powered by a powerbank. For at home i have a 13" screen with an arm that i can clamp onto the nightstand or on the workbench and a cheap wireless logitech m+k combo. If i ever feel the need to game docked instead of handheld i’d probably use my xbox controller or maybe the steam controller
What projector do you use? And is it any good?
