    It might still be best just to convert your desktop into a couch and tv device at that point. Or a steamdeck.

      I still have my desk setup for when I want to use it, but I’ve ran a HDMI cable under couches and rugs to my TV to use as well. Variety is the spice of life I guess lol. I don’t HATE playing certain things on my desktop setup, but I would much rather my couch setup if possible.

      My next thing is to figure out how to use a keyboard/mouse while on the couch. Thought of making a little wooden contraption to sit over my lap with one of those bigger mouse pads glued onto it.

        There are mouse and keyboard devices made for using from a couch too, they usually have some sort of track ball type thing for the mouse. Usually the tricky part is making it so you can even see your mouse on such a big screen.

            Ive never tried it that way, I usually use a controller from the couch but theres some games that doesnt work well. I dont think I would do well with satisfactory on a couch and tv setup with kbm, even if it was a normal mouse.
