Hot take, this is honestly a steal. That’s like 10 nice meals in this economy, and 20 reasonable ones. It’s absurd to throw a fit about the price of a Steam Deck when the rest of the economy is so bad. I love my deck, I use it daily, honestly I use it more than my $2000 desktop. It’s an amazing piece of hardware that makes me rethink what a gaming device can be. I can play my favorite game one moment, than log in to my raspberry pi a few minutes later via a real desktop. The Switch isn’t even close to that kind of agility, and will NEVER get close. The Steam Deck is a stroke of genius in a world of mediocre slop, and 1k is a totally realistic price.
