Valve Says It's 'Hard at Work' on Steam Deck 2, but There's Still No Release Window

I had an itch for something more powerful but I'm actually pretty content with my oled SD. I was tempted by the lego2 but not for 3k lol. I'll just make do with pc streaming until the SD 2 launches, even if that is a few years. I trust ol valve they've done right by me

At what price would you NOTbuy the Steam Machine?

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

Steam Deck is still worth it four years later, says poll, but people are starting to think "it's about time" for a sequel

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

Valve Says It Has a 'Pretty Good Idea' of What Steam Deck 2 Is Going to Be, Explains Why It's Holding Off for Now

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 open steam 5 years later and my csgo cases are worth 150€ now!

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.

Steam Hardware - Steam Controller: It's almost here!

I’m gonna hold off until the Steam Machine releases so I can get them in a bundle. SD is my only device atm so I’m in no rush. But it looks great, the price isn’t good but I personally think it’s fairly expected given the state of things and the quality it seems to display. I can’t be considered a f

PSA: Don't sleep on Luna game streaming if you already pay for Amazon Prime

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

Rumor has it, Switch 2 is getting a price hike this year, despite Nintendo recently dismissing the idea

I can guarantee Nintendo has got multiple manufacturing and supply contracts in place to secure parts. It's not like they haven't seen this coming. Valve discontinuing one model of Steam Deck is to be expected. It's not a huge seller (SD has always been a fairly niche piece of kit), and unlike Ninte
