I own a gaming PC. I might be an odd ball, but I rarely use it. I thought I would use it for new AAA titles like Atomic Heart or Dying Light 2, but I actually play both of those games on my Steam Deck now. As a Dad, I can't afford to squirrel away and play at my desk. So the SD allows me to play in the vicinity of the action going on in my home. When I do isolate myself, it's for work, not play.

Saints Row 1 was never on PS3, it was XBOX exclusive and it can be played via the Canary emulator...Appreciate that
Does it run everything from PS2 gen and back well?
I’m cool if I can’t emulate PS3, Only game from that gen I want is Saints Row 1. Other than that I should be good without it.
I mainly want NES-PS2 gen games
Thinking bout copping the middle storage one, 256 gb. Was gone cop the 64 gb one but not sure if that will be enough.
I want maybe 10-20 PS2 games. Maybe 5-10 N64 games. 20 or so SNES and Genesis games. Maybe 20 total Saturn and PS1 games. 10 GameCube/Dreamcast games. And a few fan made games like SOR remake. Maybe 10 arcade games.
I know storage varies wildly but can I fit all those on the 64 gb? How bout 256?
I actually could just delete games after I’m done then add them back later if I wanna play them again I suppose.
If you're comfortable opening up the SD, go with the $300 model and cop a 2TB storage SSD for like another $100...
If you're not comfortable opening it up, go with the 256GB and some sandisk cards for extra space...
I went with the latter option because I didn't want to void the warranty...

Downloaded emudeck just to play Mega Man Legends. I remember running that jawn when I was in high school, but never got to finish it because the disc was scratched to hell.
Breh I'm playing ninja gaiden sigma ps3 at a locked 60.
Is there anyway to make the battery life better?

If you are playing AAA games like God of War, Cyberpunk, or Spiderman, you are SOL. For more optimized games or older games I set my Thermal Power Limit to 10 watts. I limit framerate to 40fps and lower refresh rate to 40hhz. You can try switching on Half Rate Shading, but it tends to cause problems graphically or just make the game look like trash, but it can lower power draw.
