It’s tough to say right now whether Steam Deck will truly make a splash in the handheld gaming market or if it’s a little too expensive and niche, starting at $400, to compete with the Switch ($250 to start), but it’s definitely got Nintendo beat on the stick drift front. I personally just bought my third DualSense PS5 controller (the console has only been out for a little more than a year, folks) because of drift, so I’m more than a little jealous of Steam Deck owners right now. With the Steam Deck, you can pop the old stick out and jam a new one in there, and iFixIt said Valve may sell replacement parts to users to facilitate that process.Ĭonsidering that almost everyone I know with a Switch has experienced stick drift on their Joy-Cons (I’ve been mercifully spared, mostly because I favor the Pro Controller), this is a pleasant development. There are DIY solutions like using a slip of paper (opens in a new tab) on a Nintendo Switch Joy-Con, but as iFixIt points out, the only true solution is to replace the stick itself. Stick drift has been one of the worst things about gaming hardware for the last several years. ![]() So it’s good to see Valve going that route with Steam Deck.īut let’s talk about the analog sticks. Phil Mickelson is four under par through the first two rounds of the 2023 Masters. The Framework Laptop was one of the coolest devices of 2021 because of how friendly it was, with clear labels and easy disassembly, to repair newcomers. All the internals are clearly labeled, so even PC repair novices should be able to navigate their way around the device with careful observation. Increased control and accuracy take your gaming experience to a new level with the Backbone One controller. Teardown has full support for controllers. ![]() Simply dispatch eight screws and some plastic clips and you’re in, without dealing with any exotic parts or glue, per iFixIt. Teardown Controller Support Backbone Teardown has full support for controllers. ![]() This makes Teardown a likely PEGI 7 and ESRB EVERYONE rated game. Generally, accessing the guts of the Steam Deck looks pretty easy. As there are no people in the game, any violence is aimed at buildings and vehicles.
