I’ve said it before, just… give me a Steam Deck without the screen, and I’ll buy it. I need that layout, it’s the perfect combination of features for me.
If I could be greedy, an extra set of back paddles and some extra “spare” buttons would be nice for flight/space sim games.
Either connect them to a docked Steam Deck by the TV, or my gaming PC, yeah. The Steam Deck is nice, but for an extended session it’s quite a hefty device. Being able to have the same controls while laid back on the couch or reclined in a chair would be more comfortable I think.
You don’t, it’s just a controller, shaped like a Steam Deck but without the screen. With the touch pads and everything. It can be normal controller sized since you don’t need the screens and giant battery, and most of the processing. Maybe save a little flash memory in it to save control schemes right to the controller would be nice.
As far as I can tell, that’s what they said they wanted. I thought maybe they have an interesting use or reason to remove only the screen. I could be a useful idea.

Hell or go one further and don’t even attach them together. It would be a great HOTAS like experience for space games.
So you’d plug in a monitor or TV to play?

What would be the point of having the processor in the controller, then?

Where did you get that from?
Well, they said they wanted the steam deck without the screen. So, that leaves the whole rest of the device, just without the ability to see anything.
Don’t be pedantic, if you’re not an idiot you’d have known exactly what they meant.
