Thing is the hardware has been out for so long now I wonder if I would actually buy one or wait for a followup. Valve must have shittonnes of money so maybe they really are withholding it because they don’t like the ACCC

There are plenty of other counties where it is unavailable.

I'm yet to hear a really good reason as to why not though. Valve has sold hardware in Australia previously what's new with the steam deck?

Skeptical.

Obviously the real reason is a surprise launch of Half-Life 3.

Oh hey, your comment just federated with aussie.zone. There's a bit of an issue with comments from lw accounts, I think it'll be fixed soon. You'll see this reply in a week!

Id wager far, far more likely to be a deadlock presser or perhaps an index, over years-old deck.
