Seems like the component shortages thanks to AI may have finally hit Valve as in the US, Canada and Asia all models of Steam Deck are completely out of stock.

    Because they’re releasing a new one?

      Not likely. They’re waiting for a bigger leap in tech before putting out a truly new version.

      Probably because ram prices have gotten high enough that they cannot price the console at a reasonable price.

        If that was true, then anything that uses RAM would be following a similar theme.

          Well, things like raspberry pi’s are already getting more expensive. Big companies are insulated a little bit longer, but they will get more expensive also.
