However, Asus is giving us something very close. In partnership with Microsoft, Asus has updated the ROG Ally, adding official Xbox branding. Enter the Asus ROG Xbox Ally, a new handheld gaming device aimed to rival the Steam Deck and the Nintendo Switch 2. Released less than two months ago, the device is already seeing a solid discount. Originally priced at $600, it’s now 18% off, dropping to $490—a savings of $110 this soon after launch.Read more RELATED STORIES Northern KZN Communities Cast a New Path for Sustainable Fishing Stories from South Africa Pretoria Youth Choir Wins International Gold for ELECTRIFYING...
