It's honestly good advice, but I much prefer original hardware when possible. (lemmy.world)

Steam Deck is the best emulation machine out there right now for me.

I've been thinking about getting the new pixel fold or the Samsung z ~~flip~~ fold. When you open them to tablet mode they're a big square screen. When you clip on a controller it looks like a sick retro gaming handheld because of the screen ratio.

This is similar to what I do. I have an old pixel 3xl and a Sunshine server running on my gaming PC. Moonlight is installed on the Pixel and I stream my games to it from the PC. I have a WireGuard VPN setup for when I am outside the house. It works very well!

Edit: Inside the house, I have a Rasbery Pi 5 with Libreelec installed which has a Moonlight addon as well for when I want to play on my big screen TV.
