Need a steam deck price drop

[76561199281265327]

reason being is after watching some videos of steam deck it has become clear that steam deck is actually being used to steam link and remote play high end games in alot of the videos

this is misrepresenting the actual ability of steam decks hardware

steam deck will run low demanding games great

it can not however run demanding high end titles directly it can only steam link remote play them when a more powerful computer is actually running the game.

for this reason i believe that users deserve a fair price for this piece of hardware

reasonable price

200 dollars for the low end model
300 for the mid range
400 for the expanded range

this is my opinion because if you really want the steam deck to succeed you need to get it to the players you need to not get stuck with hardware that is quickly becoming out dated and you need a player base that can use it.

currently steam deck is not for everyone it is a low grade hand held desktop computer, it is not a gaming pc it does not have the hardware capable of handling high end games.

you might not like it but i don't think customers will like buying something that none of the games they want to play will work on. it will lead to mistrust and misrepresentation to the customer that will ultimately create failure.

best of luck with this to steam marketing i will look foward to your price drop and to possibly owning your hardware.

After finding out that most of those who responded to this thread as actually steam "community" moderator support and not actual steam customers but working within or along side steam i understand that many are trying to justify the high price to save face with the company.

I however am a real user who seen to many things fail in my life, currently VR failed pretty hard, Steam deck isn't doing much better with new release of a even cheaper competive brand hand held.

I want to see more people given a chance to get steam deck, some issues recently with payment orders being blocked due to steams issues with banks and credit cards is also a major hurdle for people wanting to buy a steam deck.

Valentines day is just around the corner, so lets get a steam deck Valentines day sale going, lets get steam deck into players hands before something else hits the market that is cheaper with newer hardware that can do the same thing if not better.

Thanks and may all your Steamdecks work right out the box.

Nothing you said in this statement is true.

with so many steam community quality players saying no

It would be great to see Steam deck go on sale, who would benefit from it but the players, limit it to 1 steam deck per account number, this way nobody can buy multiply decks for cheap with the same card, its not about someone trying to buy them to resale.

its about getting them to players to be useful to be experienced and to be productive products that people want.

I am kinda actually flabbergasted at how the community reaction to this type of thing is going, if its in demand you would wanna clear stock an work on your next big upgrade of hardware.

so what is really going on behind steam deck, has steam deck already lost so much money that it can't sell, can't drop price, can't get a user group of players. i am just baffled over this i don't know one real player that wants to pay more for something.

seems a little odd , maybe nobody care about steam deck except the people trying to sell it, i really don't know, well there is always next year.

Great where is steam deck version 2, if its selling out why would you continue to manufacture same broken design that has been returned by a large number of purchases with issues for repair.

Still doesn’t want to link to this upcoming—cheaper—better!—product?

:homelol: Alas there’s no “put up or shut up.”

someone with these committee awards would know that advertising outside of steam if strictly prohibited , this is about selling steam decks to people for a better price, other wise they will sit in a warehouse until 2025 when they get liquidated due to better competition.

Next hardware upgrade is years away, and its already sold over a million units, so makes no sense from a business perspective to discount something that is selling. Not to mention its already priced super competitively, and is the lowest priced option on the market for what it does.

What you propose makes absolutely no business sense whatsoever.

You do understand it's only been out a little over a year right? No company releases products that quickly in the same line.

Consoles on average, make a new iteration about every 4-5 years.

You keep saying the design is broken and referencing 'a large number of repairs' without any backing whatsoever. Do you have numbers? Do you have actual comparisons of units sold vs. units sent in?

Or is this all because you don't understand how bug report forums work?

no need to name call when clearly steam deck sale benefits both the user and the profit company.

Keep it professional, thanks. this is a serious thread about how steam decks ultimately failing to pick up a population because of overpriced marketing and lack of sales to the people.

steam sells games on sale, so why not sale the steamdeck.

steam has all the actual data on real sales, real returns, real repairs. real units they purchased themselves to increase the sales of the unit.

all companies actually do it, so don't expect steam to not do it to, track records of low valve index users is a clear sign that the industry chooses cheaper hardware over pricey, that people in the world already have enough overhead with mortages and car payments, food, bills and everything else.

typical gamer is not droping 400 or 600 dollars on something, your typical gamer isn't buying 100's of steam games.

you people actually responding to this thread are not typical gamers and are infact something much different, but its not typical run of the mill kids asking mom and dad for games. to many games to little time in life.

i hope this thread helps steam make better choices in upcoming hardware plans.

you have screen shots of "Stray" on your profile i can't take you serious any more, i love kittys, what in the world are you doing.


also Hi, Bee and yes i can, you can review the bad bugs on steam decks discussion forum, you can also search for yourself actual reviews an tear downs of the product, inform yourself of it see how its built, see the good and the bad designs, read other forum threads in regards to oversited improvements that the steam deck really needs.

there is a huge selection of information in this , most players consider it a tinker toy due to the many trial and error issues players face to get the games they want to play. I've seen the tear down and they could do alot better for the price.

That reminds me, I’m pretty sure OP still hadn’t answered my question…

Hey OP, can you please list the serious and dangerous design flaws you’ve repeatedly claimed the Steam Deck has supported by reputable sources?

Look, we get it. You're broke. Doesn't mean you're entitled to a price reduction
