Not gonna lie. That is hella hype. Although it does make it harder to target hardware as a game dev. It does however make the whole ecosystem way better.
Hope they introduce some minimum hardware requirements that a hand-held has to have for it to be steamos compatible. That way devs can target that hardware and it will run on any steamos verified device
I don’t think that’s feasible. The current set of handhelds have the OG Deck at the bottom end of the performance tier anyway, that’ll only become relevant if and when a Deck 2 releases, and at that point it will be the same problem to solve with or without third party hardware.
Minimum hardware requirements are likely to be performance (at relevant minimum resolution) and battery life at least on the same level as the current Steam Deck.
