Comment on Microsoft claims: Steam Deck Did Not Need Call Of Duty To Succeed
dlove67@feddit.nl 10 months agoI was only talking about your claim that they’re selling at a loss, nothing about success or not.
We don’t know their BOM so its speculation that they’re taking a loss.

Sorry, I mean the overall loss. Not selling at a loss from a manufacturing point but a loss on the development and research of a console. They spent years just designing and building prototypes of the Steam Deck. It is an assumption but I think a fair one to say that they’ve yet to make their money back from those costs to break into the console industry.
