          Why so defensive?
          I love my deck, got one of the early 512 GB units, but even in the article you linked they are saying that “It is clear Steam Deck remains a niche portion of the PC gaming landscape”. Did you read it?

          Sadly, 3 million is nothing next to the over 129 million from the Switch, for example.

          First of all this didn’t politics. It’s a video game toy. And not sure why my question made you think I’m unable to read sales numbers. I literally asked you what number you’re referring to.

          Anyhow how. 3 million is not impressive. Consoles sell millions a day.

          From your own source:

          “It is clear Steam Deck remains a niche portion of the PC gaming landscape,” commented James McWhirter, Senior Analyst covering Games at Omdia. “However, this is unlikely to deter Valve, which has plans beyond just selling hardware units.”
