I fully agree with them. The SteamDeck as it is right now is fine. If they release another SteamDeck, the difference between it and the original two should be night and day. There should be absolutely no drawbacks to upgrading and it should be a no-brainer (provided you have the money for it). If yo

I don't get the target audience, I can justify a steam deck because it's portable but unless it's cheaper than just buying a PC, why wouldn't I get a normal PC build for everything not just taylored for gaming

Worst time to be thinking that given the current state of the market I don't know why people are wanting this new hardware released NOW of all times, shortages would make prices ridiculous. Keep the Steam Deck 2 away until prices go back to normal (whenever that is), same for the Steam Machine and F

I came back after 7 years and had a bunch of stuff I could sell. Used it to buy a Steam Deck. Best purchase I think. Turning virtual items into hardware was pretty neat.

You got me. It's me, Jeff Bezos. I need even more billions by tapping into the Steam Deck enthusiast market. Nah man, I'm just super psyched after 6 hours of working through Great Circle, a game I previously had no ability to play - now suddenly at high quality 60fps - at no extra cost to me. I want

You got a more powerful device for cheaper than the highest storage Steam deck. Some one is definitely blessed.

It's smart for ASUS to position closer to Steam Deck price - it performs similarly and there's a gap in the market with Steam Deck being out of stock most places now. I dare them to go even lower, let's see $399!!

What I'm going to say may be controversial in this sub, but I don't see the Steam Machine making a big difference here, the Steam Deck, even though not produced for retailers like other devices, had the advantage of being portable, which is arguably more appealing to the masses (and easier to justif
