I Have Decided To Give Up PC/Mobile Games

To focus on my console games instead (PS4/Switch). Gaming laptops are more expensive than consoles and I have to bring a plethora of wires and attachments with me if I want some couch time with my cat to play on PC. I also need my Phone for important adult obligations and it takes a while to constantly charge its battery if I'm playing games on it. I think this will be a better step forward for myself.

It's no problem to use wireless mouse and keyboard for gaming from the couch. Keyboard in the lap and mousepad on the arm rest is stable for many games, and a rotating tray that's wide enough for them when extra-stability is needed for the rest.

A power strip or USB hub with a long cord halfway between the TV stand and couch is good for charging devices and/or swapping USB dongles doesn't get in the way too much.

I've tried that before, it's still awkward for me and doesn't feel worth it.

Steam Deck is nice, but not all PC games key map correctly or nicely to it.
