Hello, everybody! I want to have a little mini-PC for gaming that operates like a console. I don’t want to have a big, clunky case in the back or front of the TV. Furthermore, I don’t play many AAA titles from recent years, so the hardware doesn’t need to be high-end. It would be nice if I could run Scarlet Nexus, Nier: Automata, and Horizon Zero Dawn at a stable 60 FPS. The graphics don’t need to be extreme; I just want to enjoy the game.

Also recommend some great distro’s for gaming.

    it can’t wake it due to a Bluetooth limitation.

    That’s a great point. I’ll have to think about a good solution there (it’s Linux, so, should be able to do it). It is probably an OS level think like a udev script. The only requirement SHOULD be that the controller acts in HID mode as that shouldn’t need the whole stack, to my knowledge.

      I think it’s a hardware problem. The Deck doesn’t have its bluetooth radio connected to a low power embedded controller capable of issuing a wakeup. You could tell Linux to keep enough hardware awake to properly listen on the Bluetooth radio, but that would be disastrous for sleep life.
