I tried but failed to find an existing gaming setup that I liked so I built my own. Here is my ultimate lazy gaming in bed setup in case anyone else is interested. It didn’t want anything permanent (attached to wall/bed) as I can use it as a standing desk for work/game in my office.
I took a tv roller stand and combined it with a modified monitor arm (it was a dual monitor arm and I Frankensteined it to make a single extra long arm). I have a raspberry pi 5 with raspbian OS with steam link so I can game with my gaming rig in my office in the basement, or watch movies/youtube. I ran cable to my bedroom so I can use hardwired over wireless for best performance. I bought a cheap 24” 1080p monitor with 144hz refresh rate even though steam link caps at 60. I have the whole stand anchored with a single heavy weight bag used for canopy tents. If there is interest I’ll find all that I used to make a part list with the total cost even with the items I had laying around.
I’m happy with it, though I can’t say my wife feels the same (she thinks it’s an eyesore). If there is anything that I can do to improve it I’d be grateful to hear it.
