I mean...
Not to take anything away from the Steam Deck, it's a very cool piece of hardware, but the Switch 2 beat its lifetime sales in what? Three weeks? I'm not even saying it's better, but I think people should get a sense of the scope of PC handhelds in general compared to consoles and the Switch specifically. And I say that as the owner of multiple handhelds, the Deck included.
For consoles in general Sony and Nintendo are the top dogs, no question, but I remember refreshing the pre order page over and over, got my order in about 10 minutes and was still placed in wave 3. I think scalpers are also largely responsible for both the Steam Deck and Switch sales, as I know no one IRL who has either and most of my friends are nerds.
I forget what wave I was on. I know I wasn't there day one, but it also wasn't that long of a wait.
My best guess is Valve was making very few of these. It's pretty impressive that Nintendo has been able to move this many consoles while keeping stock up, but Valve was clearly not operating at that volume for both cost reasons and to create some hype.
For the record, I do own both a Switch 2 and a Deck. It wasn't that hard to get either, but the Switch 2 was available on day one in a way the Deck was not.
