$229? Fuck me, you’re not kidding. That’s over half way to owning a Steam deck.

The playdate looks cool but it’s wayy too expensive for what it is.

More than that if you account for the refurbished/used market
Also in the eu with shipping and taxes a single playdate with no accessories amounts to…
Total $334.97
WTF MORE THAN 3/4 of a BRAND NEW STEAM DECK ?!

My guess is that most people in the market for a Steam Deck aren’t getting either this or a Deck.

I’ve gotten easily $200 worth of value out of it, and if mine broke I’d buy another one. Sometimes niche things deserve the extra price. It’s more of a problem of the world draining everyone’s disposable income for niche things like these.
