I checked out within five minutes of getting the email, got the shipping notification today and looks like my deck is arriving on Friday. Just in time for the weekend! I'm in the same boat as you for a 512gb in Minneapolis.

So, I've installed just under 100 games on my Deck (512 + 1tb) so far with a good mix of smaller indie titles and bigger 30-100 gb games and the "other" use on the main drive has grown to 23 gb. I think people with the 64gb Deck shouldn't run into any problems with it ballooning out of control. So 64gb + 1tb sd should work fine.

I am very excited to buy and use my cute little emulation machine that can also run some other video games while I’m on an airplane. I’d like to buy a dock for my 4K TV with a USB out, though, so I can use it on my TV. Are there any solid options out there? Also, how does everyone do cloud saving for emulators? Just map a folder in OneDrive?

Does anyone know what the small daily updates to games are? I turned on my deck today and had 49 games update. It wasn't a big deal, they were mostly 1-10mb in size, but a few of them were 100mb. Are these optimizations to shaders or something? They don't seem to be "real" updates to the games, as in none of them show up with patchnotes or anything.

Probably not from shader downloads, this is just Steam's automatic crowd-sourcing finding more shaders that it hasn't seen previously (or, alternately and less likely, they're updating the drivers and the old cached shaders are now incompatible). The only performance benefit of downloading pre-compiled shaders is less stuttering due to runtime shader compilation in bad game engines.

Just got an email saying my Q1 preorder for the 512 was cancelled and they refunded my $5. Emailed support since I did not initiate the cancel, but WTF man! I have steam guard on my account, and there is no record anywhere of me requesting a refund.

I've heard that support are pretty generous with people who miss their windows, though, so you'll probably be fine.

ya, I guess that some emails are going to peoples spam folders so if you think your time is coming up, just check the steam deck page. On another note, has anyone tried 7 Days to Die on the deck? I'm betting it runs pretty poorly, considering even on good systems the performance is pretty bad.

It runs ok on my Aya Neo so you should get a locked 30 no problem. I have an issue though where the cursor doesn’t show up but that’s a windows issue and other apps have the same problem. My only issue with 7d2d is that there aren’t cloud saves because the files are too large.

got mine today after the predicted 5 workdays waiting time, amazing piece of hardware really. Feels a lot different as I imagined, in a positive way. Tested only a few games so far, looking forward to find some more time to tinker with it and install emus

Got mine but no haptic feedback on the left touch pad, though it works and the haptic feedback on the right touchpad is hosed up, feels like the vibration device isn't attached properly.

What does Valve do to keep malicious actors from poisoning the shared shader cache? Anything?

How would poisoning it work, and what kind of consequences would there be? Like would it just stop games from booting due to corrupt shaders, or would it be as bad as remote file execution?
