Steam Deck 2: Delay or Damage Control?
0
Yaar, just saw some news about the Steam Deck 2 and honestly, I'm a bit conflicted. Valve is claiming that the ongoing memory supply crisis hasn't "really" impacted their plans for the next handheld, insisting they still want a significant performance jump. But at the same time, they're saying they're waiting for a generational leap, and the current Deck's 1TB model is already touching nearly $950! To me, this just screams either a massive delay or a bit of damage control, because how can it *not* be affected when memory prices are through the roof? It feels like we'll be waiting forever for a true upgrade that isn't ridiculously expensive; I just hope they don't rush out something half-baked or overpriced when it finally drops.
