    They announced their new hardware months ago and it was going to be available soon.

    This is normal and expected. And can mean that there is a 6 months wait. Depending on how much stock thay want to have to combat stalkers.

    I’d almost bet it’s the frame over the machine given the reduced RAM needed

      If they’re expecting people to use the Frame with the Machine, then they’d probably want the Machine on the market first. I’m not totally clear on the strategy. They obviously made it “standalone”, but will there be enough content to release it as such?

      I certainly plan to buy it specifically to use with the Machine.

        I won’t be buying the Machine because I have a perfectly good Linux PC as is. I’ll be using the Frame with that.

        I think their plans got thrown out the window with said RAM and hard drive issues and now they’re just trying to make it work.

        I plan to run the frame off my laptop, don’t really need a second computer for it.

        You could use the Frame with any other pc too, so no content concerns

    If true, shadow drop on controller launch day.

    Or not, who the fuck knows.

      I doubt they’d shadow drop it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they announced it then

    Seems more likely to be controllers, not actual consoles.

      https://en.nbd.ltd/customs-data?t=2&v=Valve+Corporation

      wireless game controller is its own option seperate from the game consoles

      its clear its not the controller. what is not clear is if the shipments are either steam deck restocks, steam machine, or steam frames.

        Wait, let me understand this. Is your link something official? Like, reliable? Because come on Gabe, less time on Aliexpress ordering random valves with the company card!

          the company search is probably using fuzzy search, so any company that has the term valve, and corporation somewhere in it would show up in the search.

          feel free to look up shipping manifests of other companies on it to show examples e.g Nintendo of America

      I think those were listed specifically as controllers. Here’s the previous “leak” :
