I've barely used mine. I just didn't think through what use case I'd have for it and bought it since it was cool. I don't travel much and I usually only want to game when I'm home anyway, where I use my main gaming rig. I thought I would use the deck in bed, but I find that it's not as enticing as I thought it would be
been meaning try and sell it while it's still got some value tbh, it's basically brand new even though I've had it for nearly a year
I could have written this word for word. Haven’t quite gotten to thinking about selling mine, but not really sure why I should keep it either. I thought it would be a good way to motivate me to play older and indie games, but I’ve been staying busy with AAA games on my main rig.
edit to add: it has gotten me into playing Hades every now and then so it worked for that at least.
Maybe try making it an emulation machine? I use mine for both normal PC gaming and emulation while I'm working out of town.
Why didn’t the gaming in bedpan out? I have the same situation as you except I use it to game for 20 min to maybe an hour max while I’m chilling in bed before sleep
I’ve found some stands to really help that to be comfortable, mainly looking into “belly stands”
