I can see bringing the Deck, like you might be sitting there for at least 24 hours, you don't need to be sitting there holding their hand the whole time...
But the keyboard? The mouse? The HEADPHONES? It's not like you're in an extended stay. You're getting that baby out and going. You don't need all that.
You've never worn headphones with one half off your ear before? Arguably better than just putting one earbud in, because you can still hear the game audio.
Those are over ear closed backs with thicc pads, no way are those going to be comfortable to one ear. Some Grados, maybe, but again the more important thing is hearing things in the room, not the game.
Okay you're right about the one in the image, but I was more talking about a hypothetical here, bc this guy clearly did bring a keyboard and mouse too. Some Sennheiser HD650s would be perfect imo.
You guys have clearly never had kids. It almost never goes like in the movies, you rush into hospital, and then you wait. Especially if the water broke, then you wait few days. There is absolutely nothing to do in the hospital. I would have killed for steamdeck, or even a switch.
