Linux

fans just keep cumming on them

chinks in charge of microchip production

not enough stock to meet the demand
gay b button that looks like it's about to slide off the deck
steam steadily declining in the last 10 years showing no signs of stopping
that is all

They marketed to the biggest group of gamers who don't leave the house and the biggest group of gamers that don't game

It's really that simple

but
'ick on the 'eck tho...

Last I checked they'd shipped out hundreds of thousands, and taken the top spot for the handheld PC market. Other similar systems are lucky to ship the same number of units of their whole run as what Valve ships out in a week.

>Sold out for a full year
>"Failed"
yeah ok

They won't let me buy one just because I live in fucking Japan

Irrelevant. Nintendo works because they have games worth playing. Why would I own a steam deck to play games I can play on my vastly superior PC?

they won't let me have one yet

it didn’t tho

>Obvious bait thread looking for (You)s
Anyway. It's been selling out for months. I just got one and it seems to be working really well. I hope more games start working on Linux. I really feel like it's time.

>It's been selling out for months
So has the PS5 and that's not exactly a good thing.

>Only make 5,000
>Woah guys we're sold out for the whole year

>Why would I own a *switch* to play games I can play on my vastly superior PC?
Ftfy

Stop being poor.

>Make X copies of product
>Sell X copies of product
That's the definition of success in capitalism sweetheart

They shipped out 10k in the first week. After several increases they're at 50k a week now. At the current pace they'll hit about 1.5 million units this year.
If they get enough users coming in from Windows or MacOS, they'll have more Steam Deck users than Mac users by the end of next year.

>At the current pace they'll hit about 1.5 million units this year.
so i still wont be getting mine by december. noted, fuck gabe

I rubbed my eyes and realized that all their loonix work is just good old-fashioned Microsoft-style EEE. No thank you. If I'm out and about and want to play a "serious" game I'll just play Morrowind on my phone, and if I'm that desperate to play Skyrim, I still have LE on my offline PS3 that I'm allowed to play without sending my dick picks to Gaben

Because it was made by known scammers who commit false advertising and fraud.

Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

Nobody ever cared about artifact though. They saw that, which is why they stopped. You're like one of the ten people that actually played that shit-heap.

I'm still waiting for my fucking email and it got to the point that I just built a PC in the meantime instead.

>if I spam it long enough people will think it's true
lmao

Imagine playing your Steam Deck in public
