Fingers crossed that the Steam Deck is exactly what Valve says it is and that I get mine sometime before 2023.At Gizmodo, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. Namely the Steam Link, Steam Controller, and Steam Machines. I’m more concerned about if Valve can deliver on the Steam Deck promises and doesn’t end up dropping it like several other prior Steam hardware products. I’m far from thinking that the Steam Deck is a Nintendo Switch killer, and it isn’t. Or, you could forgo SteamOS, slap a Windows install on the device, assuming driver support is there, and game that way. As for how well SteamOS is going to handle certain games thanks to anti-check methods and Photon (WINE), not being able to handle anti-check at the moment is another thing.

You would think they would close them off and get the initial systems taken care of first and then start accepting orders again. I mean, who the heck will pay $900, $1500, or even $2000 on this? Hopefully, the answer is nobody.ĭespite that, Valve is still taking orders for the Steam Deck. It wasn’t surprising to see that, but what is surprising is the prices of some of these Steam Deck eBay auctions. Of course, many of those reservations made their way onto eBay, despite Valve’s attempts to prevent that from happening. ![]() Reservations for the Steam Deck started on Friday, July 16th,2021. Valve’s Steam Deck was revealed on July 15th, 2020, in three different variants a 64GB eMMC storage edition, 256GB SSD, and 512GB SSD. For a while, I was worried that they had sold out or something. ![]() There have also been reports of users having a tough time trying to reserve the Steam Deck when it went live - something I can attest to as I also experienced issues on trying to pay. It looks like Valve may have underestimated the desire of everyone wanting to own a Steam Deck.Īccording to, Valve is pushing back reservations for the Steam Deck, well past the original release date and into Q2/Q3 2022. ![]()
