Personally, I think #OUYA isn't a #failure.

  • They didn't fail to deliver.
  • They didn't scam anyone.
  • They did exactly what they promised.

@robinsyl I am convinced that #Valve is gonna try to seriously support #ARM & #Linux longterm because they don't want to depend upon #amd64 / #ix86 & #Windows for survival and profit.

  • I'm shure the same engineers who cooked up the #SteamFrame work hard on supporting mainstream ARM devices like the #Pi500Plus, because the more platforms #Steam can serve a decent amount of their catalog the easier it is for them to make money.

And in the end that's what they care about...

  • Tho I don't put my hopes up high re: any new devices and espechally not reasonable pricing, cuz the "#AIbubble" and the #PriceFixing tripol of #RAM [Chip] manufacturers are currently busy #scalping RAM & #Flash into unobtainable amounts.

When the #SteamMachine was announced everyone with a calculator could see this is ginna be a $/€ 749,-- #GabeCube because unlike any #GameConsole they explicitly refuse to go with the "Razer & Blades- Model" and sell the device at a loss.

  • At the current prediction and RAM prices everyone not deranged expects this to be a $/€ 999,99 box if Valve preordered enough RAM to have an inventory cushion at launch.

And with the current price developments I'd not be surprised if sooner or later devices get stolen just to rip the RAM & SSD out of them and distribute them second hand like weed to a coffeeshop in Amsterdam.
