6+ Months Later, I Finally Review the AYANEO Next Lite… (and more)

[@retrohandhelds]

HUGE congrats on the upcoming 10K my friend, amazing and vulnerable video, i'm so sorry to hear about your Mom, and I know she must have been so proud of you. That Next Lite looks neat too.

[@retrohandhelds]

oh and her dance moves at the end were incredible, look at her go!

[@GameTechTalk]

Thank you Stubbs 🥹 I was hesitant for a moment, that moment lasted 4seconds. My wife said: "Why?" when I expressed my hesitation and just like that, my heart was at ease. There is no room for fear, when there is so much filled up with the love for my Mom. And now she can dance forever in my video. As for the Next Lite, it sure is sexy in sky blue isn't it? Good luck sir!

[@justjoshp8581]

super sweet intro man, i just lost my grandma recently so it really hit me in the feels. i know alot of creators like to keep things of their lives separate from their work but i always love the ones that share things because it makes them more relatable and less of just another random youtuber, keep up the great work my man!

[@GameTechTalk]

My condoleances, I do hope that confronting the feels, though challenging in the moment, made you feel good after. I find there is a balance to maintain, but truthfully, I love to read you and others that share with me, so when the occasion is right, I appreciate sharing mine too. Thank you for being here!

[@AishTalksTech]

Dude how did I miss this video!!! Huge congrats, I knownit sucks to not have the people you love around to see the things they motivated you to do start to grow, but i have no doubt she would he proud. Love your content and i cant wait to see how you continue to grow.

[@GameTechTalk]

Thank you very much Aish, this means a lot. And likewise too, you have the makings of a great creator and growing doesn't mean anywhere near as much without people to do it alongside with, and create lifetime friends. I'm excited for what this journey will be for many of us!

[@McJhonns]

It's so nice to see your channel growing with time, I just dound it no so long ago and I've been enjoying how genuine you are in the videos, your mom would so proud of you and happy to see you're actually enjoying what you're doing

[@GameTechTalk]

Thanks. Honestly, I hope kind people like you keep dropping comments from time to time, everytime, it reminds me of my Mom, it makes me emotional sure, but in a good way and for a good reason. Thanks again, this means so much to me!

[@dave_barco]

Found your channel only a couple of days ago but have thoroughly enjoyed (and been helped by) all I've seen so far... Your clarity and authenticity are like a breath of fresh air. An isle of realness in the sea of slop... Thank you, truly. And best of luck in whatever comes next! 👏

[@GameTechTalk]

Dang, these comments. 🥲 Thanks brother. As they say, luck is when preparation and opportunity meets and I've been getting my fair share of luck lately, seems like things are going the way they're supposed to. Happy Gaming!

[@xChuckNasty88x]

your videos have helped me make some smart purchases. Thank you for your content and we appreciate it. My mom passed away 12 years ago when i was 24 and my dad passed earlier this year, It never gets easier. We just learn how to deal with it. Games help to distract us a little bit. Good Luck and a an early Congrats to 10k and beyond

[@GameTechTalk]

Thank you for the kind words, and for sharing. My condoleances to you for them both, and I agree wholeheartedly. Finding myself in the middle of nowhere with a fleeting thought and the emotions come rushing, it's instantaneous. As you said, it never gets easier, we just learn to cope. Thanks, I'm excited for what the future holds!

[@LeonCavalcantiRocha]

Happy for the 10k, and thanks for the honesty and the emotions!

[@GameTechTalk]

It was a tough, yet comforting video to make. It did me a lot of good to let my emotions out and I appreciate you for having received them the way it presented itself.

[@JB-tp6uj]

My condolences. I'm sure she is very proud of you! You have become a reliable and consistent source of information and analysis that has contributed to a lot of people's buying decisions. Not a lot of people can say that.

[@GameTechTalk]

🥹 Thanks JB, I hope life is treating you good and I appreciate you dropping some kind words!

[@benleeper6998]

Early congratulations and late condolences my friend. I’ve appreciated this channel and the insights and exposure to new technology. Thank you!

@@GameTechTalk no prob! also would you say that the aya neo next line has combatability with ps remote play?

[@GameTechTalk]

@@spxrkz7190 It does yes, in fact, AYANEO have implemented a protocol swapping tool in AYASpace 2, meaning that you can make your controller be recognized as a Sony Playstation one for full compatibility with Remote Play, no extra tools needed!

I'm sorry about your loss, man. I'm sure she is proud of you. And I am happy you are about to hit your 10k milestone; you deserve it.

Sorry for your loss I understand the pain I lost my mom also.. so it’s hard for me especially during holidays. I just subscribe and I can’t wait to see more of your contact.

[@GameTechTalk]

/virtualhug My condoleances to you as well and I know all too well what you mean. I see her in fleeting souvenirs, I experience new moments where I feel I should hear her laugh and be with her family, but we have to make do with having her presence in our memories and our love. You made me shed a tear with your comment, but it's one that comes from a place of eternal love so thank you, truly.

This is the first video I watched of you, but I'm sorry for your loss. ❤

[@GameTechTalk]

I appreciate the kind empathy. It was a tough moment but looking past it, it's now becoming a positive one. I find ways to remember her and put her forward and that is something I surely can celebrate. Thanks!

Sorry for you loss,i just found your channel because of this video.i like controller a lot so i really like your channel,keep up bro 💪💪💪

Since I knew your mother, I can confidently say that she was a great woman. May her soul rest in peace ❤ She would be very proud of you, my friend. Keep your head up 😊 That being said, I would love to win that device 😎

[@GameTechTalk]

Thanks my guy, indeed 🥲 Time moves in one direction and stops for no one, something we truly both can understand. And of course, good luck!

[@mattdavis9601]

I thought this was a beautiful video. I'm sorry for your loss. Both of my parents are still alive; but, both are very close to the end of their respective races and it sucks. I pray that I'll be able to deal with their passing with the same dignity and courage that you've shown. It can't possibly be easy. Another commenter said that real men cry and I agree with that. It doesn't make a man weak to cry, it makes him human. The only shame is in giving up, in giving in to the ease of wallowing in pity. You obviously didn't do that. I have no doubt that your Mom is looking down on you from up on high beaming with pride at what you've accomplished with your life. I have opinions about the AYANEO Next Lite; but, I don't think that this is the time or place for them. What I will say is that they're all positive opinions. Also, I think that this was a good review which showcased this unit in an accurate and informative light. You have nothing to apologize for.

[@akeemmorrison2589]

love this channel man copped the vader 4 because of you. I get accused of cheating now lol.

[@Gh0styGames]

Hey man glad you finally did a vid on it. Congrats on the milestone 🎉almost there. You should try some more AAA games on it you'll be surprised.

[@DorianKnight-qm9rx]

I came across your channel back when I was looking for a review of the NYXI Warrior, and one of the reasons I subscribed is that your videos feel so authentically human (among other things). This “terrible” video just made me like your channel even more. I am really sorry about your mom, it really shows how much you miss her. I was wondering, is this channel part of you “living on your own terms”?

[@GameTechTalk]

Hey, I remember you everytime you post! We talked about how you were suppose to go on an Iceland trip but life caught up with having children right? So it's been postponed to later if I recall. Thanks for the kind words! And yes, "living on my own terms" definitely included this channel which was a result of me saying goodbye to a great job I had for 15 years. I was having unnecessary obstacles put in my way and it was getting frustrating to say the least, so it inspired me to make a drastic change. I have an interview coming up at some point with Adin Walls, great channel, great creator if you are not familiar. I don't know how much of that interview will be edited but I cover that subject a fair amount if ever you'd llike. I'll make a public post when it releases! Cheers :)

[@DorianKnight-qm9rx]

@@GameTechTalk You remember right! ☺️ Our Iceland trip was actually first cancelled because the Corona broke just before we finalized the bookings, and then it was never rescheduled because life caught up with having children… =] Do post about the interview when it is released, I’ll be sure to watch it!

[@michaelbenny659]

Don’t want to be in the running for the giveaway. Just wanted to say that this video made me call my parents right away. I am still on the phone now reminding my dad that I can’t remember his password either.

[@GameTechTalk]

Thanks for giving 'em a call. Also, you made me go through feels faster than scrolling through TikTok! Nothing like a good laugh after the emotions, thanks! 😊

[@RetroFunTech]

It's good to know that I'm not the only one who is tech support for their parents. Lol. Klef - Your videos are different and awesome because you put so much of your heart into them. ::::Hugs:::: but I really liked the dance at the end. (also please don't enter me in the contest. 😎)

@@GameTechTalk haha I be stayin inspired to watch reruns regularly haha Michael Scott is just good for the soul and one of my favorite parts was when he put the inspiring quote by Wayne Gretzky up on the board followed by his own name like as if he's the real mastermind behind the quote...

My Next Lite gets as much or more playtime as my ROG Ally since I installed Bazzite and got supermodel 3 arcade emulator running thanks to the help of EmuDeck. Great device for 300. Capable in windows, but much more versitile in linux/bazzite, or Chimera OS depending on preference.

[@WowSuchFrames]

Why don't you post in the description the games shown, featured? What? Strong reasons? What? What the hell is porgy? I searched on internet after the steam store and still nothing, man... Underwhelming and upsetting, because you did not care enough to take 5 seconds to write instantly before you were speaking about the game the name of the game because is essential part of the process...

[@GameTechTalk]

Porgy is a game in UFO50. UFO50 is a game on Steam that is a compilation of 50 different games packed into one designed to create an experience that feels like if that one console from an alternative dimension would've been create a few years back, and that those 50 games are presented in modern time as a "collection". Take care, wish you all the best.
