I got mine within 30 seconds of it going live. I dont remember seeing date or not though. Hopefully we get it december with first batch.

If you go back into the steam deck page , it should give you that place holder date under the one you reserved

Hmm. I dont see why not.
If so that changes everything. I play AAA games off this shyt currently bro shyt is fast as fukk no hiccups. I have a high end gaming rig so I play Max settings. No hiccups. Fast loading times n all that. If I could use it I will just add a Velcro piece and put it on the back of the handheld. That’s 1TB at damn near NVME speeds.

If it work im copping asap. Hopefully that sd slot supports sd express.

Prices skyrocketed on the gpu and availability stopped me when i was gone build a gaming rig recently. So imma rock with this and the ps5. Might sell my hacked switch.

Bro the shyt wavy it’s aluminum and basically the size of a flash drive. They said the Steam Deck functions like a standard PC so I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Especially since it seems the dock they are making for it allows for usb expandable storage as well.

Naw. Every steam product thus far as been an embarrassing flop. This looks like some mid.

Handheld gaming pc? What's the battery life 4hrs max. Theirs a reason we play PC games on desktops . If making it smaller was worth it gaming laptops wouldn't be so God damb expensive...their is a reason why switch is playing games in 24fps and sub 720p undocked lol. Yeah Nintendo is kinda whack for their specs but it's also to keep a balance between performance and battery and portability.

Dudes talking about buying this and hooking up a mouse and key board
:mjlol::mjlol:

Man just get a fukking gaming laptop then fool.

Good gaming laptops are like 2k easy...yall think u getting similar performance on a handheld for 400 bucks.

Why do yall do this to your selves.

No one thinks they are getting the specs of a gaming laptop. Do u nikkas even look up the market before y’all type all this shyt? It’s a 720p screen thats 60hz. U think that’s targeting gaming laptop specs? It’s also an APU. Gaming laptops have mobile variants of full size GPU’s. Again. What are u talking about? This is for gaming at medium to low settings at 720p/30-60fps. Medium and low settings on this thing will look better than just about any Switch game graphically. It’s also for people who love emulation. This can emulate games up to the Wii U damn near flawless. So that’s portable PS2, PS3, GameCube, Wii, Wii U, Saturn,Etc etc. If u don’t see the market and what’s dope in that. I don’t know what to tell u. It’s not for everybody and then again it wasn’t made for everyone. It’s not their fault a bunch of bandwagoners wanna hop on with wrong expectations of what this device is.

What I will say is the GPD Win3 seems to be way smaller than this thing. So it’s more than likely better for portability. This Steam Deck shyt is over a quarter size bigger than the Switch. So u def ain’t taking this shyt everywhere. Lol
I was mostly talmbout dealing with customs and god forbid I were to have a harware issue with the device.

nikka I don’t give a fukk about Nintendo and the hardware is the hardware. It’s not like Steam has released FAULTY hardware so I don’t even know where u going with that. U don’t HAVE to run SteamOS on this thing. U can side load windows and make the shyt ur own. U not making sense family.
