Steam Deck now the global #1 top seller on Steam

With the Steam Summer Sale 2023 now in full swing, and with a big discount on the Steam Deck, it has risen back up the Steam charts.

I saw no GOL links here so far. Great site, it taught me about Reddit, 10 years ago

    Before I got a Deck I thought the hype could not be real. It’s over a year later and I still can’t put it down.

    I want one of these, but at the same time I’m not sure if I want it because everyone else wants it, or because I’d actually use it (my Switch is in a storage box because I never turn it on)

      I was in the same situation as you, even worse, my switch is hooked up to our TV, charged and ready to go, but still haven’t gotten much use.

      If it weren’t for my wife getting it for me I probably would’ve skipped the Steam Deck and I wouldn’t have been able to game as much as I had since getting it.

      I’ve had it since November last year and I’ve finished KH1, KH Re:CoM, KH2, DMC V, and am currently playing Nier Automata. It’s such a fun little device that allows me to squeeze in some gaming between work, taking care of a newborn, and other chores.

      If you have a steam backlog you’ve been itching to play, I’d say definitely go for it. Otherwise, if you find yourself wishing you squeezed in a 5 to 10 minute gaming session during idle times, I’d say that’s a good indicator a Steam Deck would be a good purchase for you.
