My will power failed me a few days ago and gone ahead and ordered a steam deck.

I'm very disappointed with myself! I blame the Mrs entirely for this lapse.

This is how the conversation went that caused this predicament!

Me " Ya know I quite fancy one off these Steam decks to tinker with but doubt I'd use it enough."
Mrs " Well when your not using it I can to play with you!"

30 seconds later I ordered one.

I hang my head in shame.....

I was afraid I wouldn't use mine much, but I ended up using it more than my gaming PC. It's just so convenient to pick it up and play a bit. Not for big detailed games, those I still prefer to experience on a large screen, but for smaller indies it's perfect.

I wasn't sure what all of this had to do with lack of wifi until I re-read the headline.

Child moment:

That's what she asked.

This'll only be the best purchase you make this year, so... no biggie?

My spouse is very much not a gamer, until she finds a game she likes (World of Goo, Peggle, Ticket to Ride have been particular favorites) and then she can be fanatical. We'd owned a Steam Deck for 6 months before she turned to me one evening and said, "Wait, so that thing can play Steam games?"

I was genuinely speechless for a moment. But, now she's insisting that it be loaded up with her games as well for the next time we go on a trip.
