There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple.

      Honestly I think the trick for valve there would just be to release a build of steam OS people can install themselves into desktops (if they don’t already) and just have folks building their own machine for TV pc use.

          That’s always been their plan, but it’s getting hit with Valve Time. My guess is that they won’t do it until all issues the major with NVIDIA GPUs have been fixed, as a public build that doesn’t run properly on a majority of machines wouldn’t go well. The latest driver is pretty good, but the Big Picture mode is still pretty much unusable.

          At the very least they’re currently trying to bring official support over to other handhelds, as they’ve already confirmed that they want to official support for the ROG Ally and pushed out a update to SteamOS for the controller support.

            Yeah. If Valve releases a remotely viable desktop console OS, I’ll immediately build one for my living room. If for no other reason, to keep the rest of the family away from my SteamDeck.

              If that happens, will that affect Microsoft’s share price?
