All of these games would be terrible on phones. They're designed with controllers or keyboards in mind. I can't imagine trying to do a Resident Evil boss fight with touch controls.

Dualsense + usb c video out to a tv or monitor. You now have a console. Seems pretty cool to have around honestly.

Just need sideloading for emulators and i am happy.

Exactly. Before USB-C this wouldn’t have been worth it for developers, but with TV/Monitor output I can totally see this being useful for some gamers who either can’t afford or don’t have the space for a gaming PC or console. Then there’s the fact that it becomes a way more portable experience than even a Steam Deck. If you travel a lot it opens up a lot of possibilities without having to add another device to your bag.
