The hardware and software wasn't quite ready at the time they first tried If someone tried again now, you could get some really good machines for super cheap. Just get stronger chips than what the Steam Deck uses, slap it in a nice simple SFF case, and you've got the ultimate console killer --- https://i.imgur.com/m6Rgs8D.jpg https://i.imgur.com/qUMZhdW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/LACtH6q.jpg ...

MICHALECOLE posted... Did they ever actually come out? Yeah I think Steam sold them. But they were only really prebuilts with SteamOS tacked on. Alienware was the only one who made one that actually resembled a console from memory but obviously it was super expensive. I think they'd do better now with the improvements Proton and Steam in general has made since. --- A Fallen Mascot ... Copied to Clipboard!

It didn't make much sense because the majority of Steam's base is already on personal computers. Now the Steam Deck does make sense which is why it's been so succesful. --- Don't Stress, Become #Fresh ... Copied to Clipboard!
