Steam Deck’s OS is let loose, and it could change the handheld gaming market. Handheld gaming PCs like the AYANEO Flip DS can already run Steam, but only via the Windows-based OS they come pre-loaded with. It provides a less-than-ideal user experience when compared to native SteamOS Last week, Valve announced that it was expanding…
