Hi guys! So, yeah...Which games are good for a nice gaming session while on a flight? Last time I played one of the newer Tomb Raider games, and while performance was good, it decked (heh) the battery in less than 1h... So, while I like these too, if the flight doesn't have a socket under the seat I might want to play games that don't kill the battery immediately. What's your best/most addictive Deck games? Also, after the whole big N mess...how's the Switch emulation these days?

I haven't been on a flight in 10 years that didn't have an outlet or USB to plug into. You'll probably be fine.

IME most domestic flights and commuter flights don’t have them.

LOL no I won't. I had this issue just last year on a flight from Indonesia I believe. Might have been Vietnam. There's quite a few countries that might have not updated their planes with plugs. Hence the question.

Ooook ya I guess I'm full of shit. Vietjet never had them that I can recall. I guess I just wasn't thinking of short flights like that. My bad.

Which long flight have you flown that had them? I've flown a few over the last five years, and only one had USB. Air Canada, WestJet, RyanAir, Korean Air, and Aer Lingus didn't have one, all for international flights that weren't short.
