Hi,
Searching for a handheld (portable) gaming console.
Budget friendly piece. But capable of running decent games. Like COD etc, if possible.
Regards.
Where are you looking to buy from? Last I checked none of the major handheld consoles are available in India.
If you are looking to buy from abroad, perhaps Nintendo Switch is most readily available. But I get a Steam Deck if you can since it's more VFM if you already have a Steam account.
May b from abroad.
Secondly, any handheld device in which we can play COD?
Like it’s not available on Nintendo Switch.
I don't think so. Steam Deck perhaps but I don't know how compatible COD is on it.
In no mood of spending 90k odd a handheld device. Lol
What abt any local or Chinese options?
Local options: Zero
Chinese options: I think there is a GPD Win, Onexplayer and Aya neo, but I think all of them are priced more or less the same.
I mean, android phones have CoD, so a good phone can be a gaming device, like it is for many in India.
Those Chinese ones like Aya & GPD are more expensive than Steam Deck. Steam Deck & Nintendo Switch are the top options IMO, both not available in India, as stated earlier. I don't see that changing soon considering these devices are many times secondary or tertiary gaming devices for people in US & EU, not primary.
Which CoD is he talking about ?
The CoD you see (Consoles, PC)
or the CoD you have at home (Mobile)
The Steam Deck can run MW2(the new one) but only if you install Windows on it which doesn't really have a lot of the nifty features SteamOS has and is just not optimised for the Deck. Your best bet would be dual booting. Although if you plan to play away from home, ping will most likely suck on mobile Internet. Older COD games before mw 2019 work on Steam OS afaik.
