I hope it’s priced as a loss leader like regular consoles. One of the biggest appeals of the deck is how cheap it is. If they can do the same for this I think it will move units.
Also, if devs start optimising towards the cube like they’ve done for the deck it will be good for g*mers everywhere
That makes sense. Even though the deck was a full blown PC on the inside its form factor meant you couldn’t really use it as a regular workstation. These things are regular PCs and if people don’t use them for gaming thenValve doesn’t get that extra cut. The tradeoff for making such an open system

They already said they’re not doing that. Especially since a corporation could just buy 10k and use them as desktops.
