Comment on Valve Says the Steam Machine Was Originally Supposed to Cost About $750
MajinBlayze@lemmy.world 2 months agoI feel like 1200-1300 was probably likely before the price bump. I’m not confident it will come out under 15 at this point

They said it would be cheaper than Index at the time, so no.

Yeah, that makes sense. If that’s the case, then a 1300 ish range seems pretty likely

If we look at the Steam Deck, it got a ~43% price increase. If we apply that same increase to the $750 Index + controllers, you’re looking at ~$1075.

Launch price was $1k

Yea… That was then.
If they had planned to have the machine at 750, then we can extrapolate from that a frame cost. Up from around 900.

Yeah… That’s what you said?
