    Best estimate that I’ve been about to find on Steam Deck sales is somewhere between 4-6 million, which considering everything is astounding. I’m on my second Deck (upgraded to OLED).

    I actually decided to sit out the Switch 2 launch because I’m so satisfied with the Deck (and a lack of groundbreaking Nintendo games at launch).

      Assuming you are right that’s about half of the total Wii U sales

      Small compared to well known giants but this is really the first real successful console Value has launched

        That’s the thing, it’s not an established console line

        And also, half of Wii U sales is fucking massive. Yes the Wii U was considered a failure, but it was still well known
