At 1k, it’s DOA.

I’ll be getting one and 4 controllers because my kids love the Steam Deck and I have a family library full of games.

But at that price point it won’t be able to appeal to people looking for a console. It will only appeal to the tiny segment of PC gamers that already have a Steam game library and want the native living room experience because streaming sucks.

The majority of PC gamers don’t care about couch gaming, this is why most PC ports don’t have splitscreen.

I love local coop and Linux, so for them to thrive, I hope Valve makes the right call, again.
