This week, Orange Pi revealed the pricing for the Neo handheld and it’s shockingly affordable. We’ll talk about it. Plus, we’ve got yet more hard evidence that Linux is better for PC gamers than Windows. We’ll review the numbers. And you might have heard that Bazzite could shut down their entire project soon. We’re talking with Kyle from Bazzite all about that.
All of this and more today. That’s right, it’s Steam Deck (and Linux Gaming) news time.
