jsaux ModCase and the amazon/aliexpress button extensions for the L buttons. Throw it on the seat of my truck or in any bag and it's fine. A little tape over the usb port if it's going to be particularly dusty.
A cheap slim case I got for my Steam Deck so the side seams don't get filled with gamer gunk. It also made the grips a little thicker so they felt more comfortable than without the case. And then some random joystick covers which provides some grip.
Honestly in 3 years I never felt the need for any accessories, other than a 1TB SSD.
@technomad My #SteamDeck accessories:
* 1TB SSD installed on day 1 for my 64GB
* Bluetooth keyboard:
- for advanced use in desktop mode, like emulators setup
- to enter credentials in shitty EA wrapper for games
* wired earbuds (KZ on AliExpress)
- For the way I treat my SteamDeck, a clip on screen cover was a necessity.
- A larger case with space to keep the charging cable with it, for longer gaming sessions at my siblings place.
- A tiny Bluetooth gamepad (fits in the case beside the charger) for easily adding a second player for (admittedly intimate) couch co-op.
Strain relief usbc adapter was mentioned.
My Frankenstein Bluetooth audio mixer setup so I can headphones to multiple devices is probably the most important to its use.
