Yeah I’m about the same. I have a SD but it’s in docked mode 90% of the time, and I’d love something with a bit more juice, so the cube looks perfect. I’ll probably sell the SD when this drops to ease the blow. While I obviously love that the cube will function as a full computer, in a LTT video on it he brought up an important point that they can’t let game sales subsidize the price, because there’d be nothing stopping a company with no intention of buying games from scooping up thousands of subsidized computers. So the price point might scare me away.
I like small computers so this will probably be my next. Didn’t want a steam deck cause I basically never play portables. Controller looks neat.
Can’t really see myself ever building a huge power monster computer ever again. Small, silent, good enough performance* - perfect for me.
*(seriously, it’s around the PS5 in power - you can name any game and the PS5 would still be overkill - this thing will be good for a long time)
The most value I’ve gotten from the steamdeck is that it solves the cat sitting in front of the screen problem.
