ROG Ally. Finally a good device which lets me play any of my indie games on my commute. This is important to me as I'm the dad of a 7 week old girl, and my commute is the only time I have for gaming now.
Genuine question, why not Steam Deck? I enjoy playing indie games (Into the Breach, One Step from Eden, Into the Void, etc) on my Steam Deck on bus.
It's not available in Norway, and probably won't be any time soon. I could have it sent to a collection point in Sweden and pick it up there, but then I'd have a lot of trouble dealing with a warrenty claim if something doesn't work.
Sorry to hear that. It makes me thankful that even in a small Asian market like Hong Kong I can get a steam deck through official channel.
I'd definitely have gone with the SteamDeck had it been officially sold here. A more console like experience and the trackpads would have been great for RTS games. Bought a steam controller from a colleague, so at least I can use that for RTS when connecting the ally to a TV.
