It looks like we are actually getting a Steam Deck 1.5 with, at minimum, a new WiFi 6e card.

But then, last week we were supposed to be getting a new VR headset and console so…who knows.

But it’s possible that speculation is causing a dip in sales.

TFW instead of a console and VR headset you get Valve’s worst reviewed game since Artifact

Would have stayed there a few more weeks if they had made it available down under.

Their success is well-deserved. I really hope Valve doesn’t let the momentum slow down though by working with hardware partners and getting SteamOS onto more devices. That’d make the lack of a Steam Deck 2 in the near-term a lot easier to stomach.

I haven’t got one yet, but give me another sale like they just had and I’m straight on it. I’m saving my hard-earned pennies for this!

I pre ordered the 512, mainly because I wanted the screen and at the time the ssd’s were expensive.

Now I would definitely get the 64gb model and just upgrade the ssd for a total of much less money. Even then, you can upgrade the screen for just $100 if you wanted to. You can make a 1TB with the better screen for less than the cost of a 512 and then you’d have a spare screen as well.

I do NOT trust myself not to destroy the device trying to do that. I’ll just wait for a sale and get the 512.

Wasn’t this stat pretty skewed since it measures gross revenue and not units sold? So the Deck had a ~10x advantage over everything else?

Measuring by units would be WAY more skewed. The top 10 would all be free items, or if you exclude those $0.01 items. Measuring gross revenue is much harder to game unless you count “actually selling $500 hardware a lot” as cheating somehow.

I mean normalizing by dollar spent makes the list useful. It’s not a “most units sold” list. It’s a where is everyone spending money list.
