How mad are Steam Deck owners?
I sold mine a while back but I'd be mad. That shit should have been OLED to begin with. --- This is where cool people write stuff. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm still trying to think why I would want a handheld.
Maybe in this cold weather I can hide under the duvet and save some gas bill? Because I kinda want it just because its something I don't have. --- Load me into the matrix and dont pull the plug ... Copied to Clipboard!

Mildly salty because I really miss my Vita and would love to play Persona 4 on an OLED again,
But the Steam Deck I have is still a great product that I get tons of use out of. Will probably wait to see if a successor with OLED comes out in the next five years before bothering with this one though <_< --- Lusa Cfaad Taydr ... Copied to Clipboard!

Looks like the limited edition is $30 more because it has some red on it. "Highly limited". I guess bots will snatch those up before they can be added to carts.

The only ones that are slightly salty are the ones that just got their steam deck. Most are just okay with the OLED.

Double the storage too. How easy is it to upgrade storage on the old Steam Decks? Never got that far with mine.

It's not too hard but it's easier on the new one since the screw threads are now metal instead of plastic so you aren't at such risk of stripping it if you misthread the screw when reassembling. --- The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist. ...

Ive finished for more games on portable systems than I have on consoles . I kind of missed the Deck this summer and played a lot of Switch. Not because I prefer handhelds, but because my desktop blows out so much hot air running AAA games I had to crank up the AC. It can raise the room temp by 10 degrees or so. Kind of considering getting another SD to save money on the electric bill. --- This is where cool people write stuff. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Did this make the steam deck more viable? Does it have a standing port as the switch does to connect it to the TV? Curious.

From what I gather it's just a bigger/better OLED screen, lighter, better battery life, more storage. The form factor stays the same. You can connect to TV with a USBC to HDMI cable like the old one. --- This is where cool people write stuff. ... Copied to Clipboard!

So in terms of hardware specs, it's exactly the same? Some of the hardware is different but it won't run games any better than the LCD version.

Early adopters don't have a right to be mad. There's always an upgrade in hardware around the corner, they should have considered that when they first made their purchase.

Valve will eventually release the Steam Deck 2 and it too should have an OLED screen. It's nice to see Valve is happy with the amount of decks they're selling.

Have they ever released a Valve Index 2? Then they just abandoned the Steam controller. I got a couple when they were on clearance for $5.

Nice, don't know if I'll do a steam deck OLED, as cool as the limited edition is I'd rather buy a new GPU and wait for the steam deck 2 that they're apparently going to make in maybe 2025-2026.

I figure when I'm ready to sell this I should at least break even if it's really going to be highly limited. But who knows. Just put in a ticket to cancel the other one.

When I watched GN's overview of them It's Valve testing different supply chains and the water for a market of different color options in the future (which Steve rightfully pointed out this thing was going to sell out immediately.) So they might do a rerun of this eventually or do different color options like a translucent Valve Orange color. --- ayy lmao ayy lmao || oaml oaml yya yya ayy lmao ayy lmao || oaml oaml yya yya ...

I'd imagine there are mod kits to change colors anyway like other handhelds. Haven't looked into that but I know Switch has tons. I also found out Steam has like, no customer support. It's literally impossible to talk to a human via chat or phone call. They should at least have a phone number for their expensive hardware. --- This is where cool people write stuff. ...

I got mine not too long ago so I definitely feel the pain and I wouldn't be able to get the OLED anyway as the Steam Deck isn't really available in my country, but it's alright, I'm super happy with the device I own and will be putting it to use until the eventual Steam Deck 2 releases in two or three years.
If this one breaks somehow I would get the OLED model though lol, but otherwise I'm content with what I have. --- Chez moi, il fait beau. ... Copied to Clipboard!
