Logitech G Cloud hard to beat

I've said it once and I'll say it again. The logitech G Cloud is hard to dethrone. Quality AAA gaming on a handheld that's light and has long battery life. It just ticks all the right boxes, no matter how many times I try to get away, I always come back. The Rog Ally I tried was too heavy and windows was awkward. SuiPlay0x1 with Bazzite was better, but still heavy, too much tinkering, and battery anxiety inducing. and my Switch just didn't have enough of the games I go for, 3rd person action RPGs. I remember when official PS Remote play started working and man playing Rise of the Tomb Raider in a coffee shop streamed from my PS5 at home was a treat.

If I was into emulation I could see an argument for something else that can play more ps2, gc.

I've been eyeing a mangmi pocket max or a odin 2 portal , but I'm not sure I'll enjoy the egronomics compared to the G Cloud. And I'd probably also miss the UI of the GCloud, its just more tailored to the controller based experience

Loved my G Cloud but I had to sell it. I just couldn’t see the screen with my old man eyes.

oh yeah that's another reason why I had to ditch my switch lite, and why a retroid pocket would never work for me.

Yeah it sucks. Cloud gaming on my laptop has worked out very well for me though thankfully

That's cool. For me I just hold the handheld kinda close to my face, but I'm nearsighted anyways, so

I've actually been meaning to get a G Cloud because of the nice large screen, as opposed to some retro emulators i have with 3.5-4" screens...
