I said loss or near loss if you want to be pedantic about it instead of addressing the evidence that they didn’t make money on steam deck hardware in order to increase user base, which was the point of my comment in hopes that they would do the same for the console.
This conversation started with you saying you expected Valve to sell the Machine at a loss, me explaining why that’s unlikely, followed by you saying the Deck was definitely sold at a loss. You can’t backpedal that to near loss now.
Wtf are you talking about!? This conversation started with me saying I hope they sell the console at 499 and I don’t know why they wouldn’t consider selling at a loss for hardware, which would be following a proven strategy used by so many other companies (including themselves!!) trying to break into a market.

Go back and reread my first comment? $499 is absolutely not happening.
Lmao, your first comment is what I’m arguing against! Incredible dialectic, really.
