Yeah this makes all the investment in Proton make a ton more sense. I've been really enjoying the side effect of pretty much any game I try running on my Linux desktop with little to no extra effort as well.

For me personally, I value the openness and out-of-the-box hackability of this device very much and it will likely be the first handheld gaming device I'll buy since the Nintendo DS. I'm interested to see if that sentiment is shared more widely as well.
