    The goddamn system is only a year and a half old, and is finally seeing a wider adoption. If they added a new SKU into the market, it would only confuse and piss off the people who already bought one. These stories about Steam Deck “refreshes” and “upgrades” are fucking stupid, and I hope the shithouses that put them out don’t get any review units when the real one finally does hit the market.

      It’s how the Chinese handhelds (Retroid and Anbernic, etc) do it they release a new model every few months. I guess they expected Valve to take that approach instead of a console generation approach.

      Personally I’d hate it if they did that. Do one every 4-5 years and let the upgrade be significant.
