>Valve hardware has always been a hobby project for a company that lives off of steam revenue
Gaben pretty much addressed this point in an interview on the Steam deck, you are right anon. He said it doesn't matter if they make money on the Steam deck and weren't thinking of it in terms of "We need to sell X Steam Deck games to break even", he basically acknowledged that Steam = PC Gaming and anything they can do to improve the health of PC gaming will benefit them. If this product ends up being a hit, it could make it easier for some people to play PC games, and less easy for console manufacturers to make a handheld (or even full size console, since this thing with a dock is basically comparable to a PS5)
