@zigga967 19 seconds ago (edited) Just got mine yesterday; I absolutely love it for what it does; I'm a console guy (x xbox) who almost bought a ps5 to play ff 7 remake. This takes care of that (already 3 hours in), plus it takes care of gaming on the go. I also plan on using it docked to play lesser powerful games (command and conquer, for example) and others like a gaming PC. I'm very curious bout the external GPU that can kick it up to a legit rig. Does anyoneWould anyone happen to know of a way to run Zelda and other Switch games via emulator?

​@@zigga967Also since coming from console, if you install Epic game store and launcher and sign up to their free account, they offer games every Thursday that you can just add to your account library. Most aren't that great but there are some good one's and even triple A's and bundled collections here and there. Especially the last half of December is a different game every day including some triple A's. Just thought I'd mention it as another option for getting some games

I liked your comment on how since it's really just a Windows PC, you can be expected to tinker with it more. That's one thing I think appeals to me about it. I like windows. I like tinkering. I like gaming. I'm fine with and would even enjoy more so something I can play around with to optimize and customize. I do see how that could be a downside to some and some would consider that to mean it's not working as expected when it's exactly what you should expect from a gaming PC.

I had one and returned it because the battery life made me tied to a power cable or battery pack and for that I would just rather sit at my computer and have no need to run lower settings and what not. Maybe just not for me but for others I hope they enjoy it.

Try this>>>I had the same problems with controllers and keyboard mixes during gaming until I: (1) Disabled all steam inputs in the controller section in Steam ( focus, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, generic) etc [this is also the only way I could get a controller or ROG pad to properly work with my emulator package]. (2) In command Center > I set "control mode" to Gamepad(always). (3) I set "embedded controller" to Disabled only when using a controller (switch back to enabled when you want to go back to ROG pad). (4) If or when asked to use a customize game profile and switch to auto "always" select NO.-Full stop Now when a game boots up I or you can push A to start and on loading screens I or you will now see---> A,B,X,Y etc. instead of [TAB] , ENTER etc. Hope this works for others using controllers . I use the Rakiri Pro controller. Keep up the good work Kevin Kenson!!!

I’ve had both. I bought the most expensive steam deck first and I’ll say straight out the box it was easy to setup and play. I had it for about 5-6 months and while it is a good experience all around it did lack a good bit of game compatibility leading it to feel a bit restricted. So I sold it a couple months ago and purchased the ally. I personally haven’t experienced any big issues and gaming on it has been amazing. If you’re really that sketched I would definitely recommend to try out the steam deck to see if it’s even something you’d actually enjoy long term. Then upgrade to the ally once you’ve gotten comfortable with the state of the ally.

If anyone has a problem with the ally after updates or bios updates and even get locked out, it might be cause of windows device encryption. Its probably not a problem but it was specifically for me with what I needed to do. I had to turn it off. It’s a program that locks out access after bios updates or new data transfer devices being connected. Might even be the cause for the sad cards not working. If you don’t keep private data that your livelihood depends on on the device. Turning it off should be ok. It’s not an anti malware, only data encryption.

I understand the steam deck wont run GAMES at 120hz 24/7 when it cant run them at 60. But it makes SO MUCH of a difference in day to day stuff like just selecting games in the UI, NAVIGATION. things like that.

And if it frustrates ME, it's gonna absolutely turn off curious buyers. For anyone who is used to console/casual gaming, buy a steam deck. It has way less bugs and issues and windows 11 is just an awful experience in a handheld form factor. I can't recommend the ROG ally to anyone right now because of how many problems it has.

When it comes to this MicroSD overheating issue, I'm as concerned about the potential "fix" as I am with the problem itself! There's only one way to fix a thermal issue with a software update - reduce thermal output by reducing performance - and Asus has a history of responding this way. When reviewers keep saying that "Asus is aware of the issue and hope to fix it in software," I hear "an update is coming that will cripple performance." Think about it, if people are returning these because of card slot issues then Asus loses money - but if they forcibly drop all the TDP limits by 10 watts then they can just claim the issue is "fixed." They could even reduce all the limits silently, so 30w setting really equals 20w, and they just hope we don't catch-on.

OK, so coming from a gaming laptop (3060) steam deck, switch OLED, S23 Ultra, Series S, and the Ally all running through the Anker Nebula Capsule 3 and Nreal glasses I can confirm the Ally kinda sucks 😂 its hard to explain but somethings off with it. The hardware is great for sure but the software makes it redundant

I love the ROG Ally, and I consider it to be the best of all the PC handhelds I've used thus far, but It's got glaring flaws. Particularly, Armory Crate is a mess, and the battery is less than it should be. I've owned a Steam Deck and a Win Max, and the Ally beats them both, but if you're looking for something that's close to perfect, like a console, we aren't there yet with any of these PC handhelds. People will try to convince others that the Steam Deck comes the closest in that regard, but where it fails is at running games from other launchers, so to me, it's dead last in the handheld race. Heck, it even has trouble running games that comes straight off of Steam if they have anti cheat, which is something Windows handhelds don't need to worry about.

Microsoft has said that they are looking into creating a version of windows for handhelds like this. I tried one out at a best buy and wasn't super impressed. I blame it mostly on the demo which was Forza horizon 4. Even turning it down to low it could barely render the map and suffered a ton of hitches and visual problems like the map but loading chunks in

Weird because I just left Best Buy a couple hours ago and played forza on the ally and had 0 issues. In fact, I bumped up the fps to 120 and it ran like a dream. Granted, the employee just finished updating it so that may have also been why it ran so well
