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.
Comment on Valve Says the Steam Machine Was Originally Supposed to Cost About $750
artyom@piefed.social 5 weeks agoThey said it would be cheaper than Index at the time, so no.

Yeah… That’s what you said?
Huh?
I feel like 1200-1300 was probably likely before the price bump.

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
artyom@piefed.social 5 weeks ago
Well they didn’t say launch price…
