  Nobody knows the final retail price. Probably not even Valve. Educated guesses are in the 600-1200 USD range.

  If you have to ask, you can’t afford it.

    Which is a crazy phrase because asking can be done for a lot of things.

      I was trying to be funny. My point was simply that it’s going to be expensive.

        Oh wow, you got down voted for no reason. I was making a general commitment in regard to the common phrase, not directed at you.

  Lots of people estimated ~$800 based on the specs and Valve’s statement that it will be priced similar to a comparable PC. But that was several months ago, so probably $900-1000 by now.

    800$ would be my soft limit as I already have a Steam Deck and a Playstation 5.

    1000$ with two controllers would be my hard limit.

    I’d want to sell the Playstation 5, but my son plays Roblox and Fortnite on it and he wouldn’t allow me😅

    Plus there might be a few Sony exclusives I’d want to play if they’re as great as what we got at the end of the Playstation 4 era.
