I'm sorry, we're out of stock! But you can get the Steam Frame Combo Orange Pack which includes both the Steam Machine AND a Steam Controller.

Oopsie, we're out of stock of that too!

We're sad you were unable to complete the purchase, please understand that we are a small family business and we are still learning.

Thank you for your interest in Newell's Family Farm

Two Steam fanboys downvoted you.

Well, I don't care. I freaking love Steam, I was able to switch to Linux 2 years ago thanks to them!. If someone can't take a joke, let them be. I'm the biggest GabeN fan there is. But I fear for his death. It fills me with uncertainty. Hopefully things don't change and also GOG learns of Valve's way. Imagine GOG officially supporting OpenGamePad UI and contributing to Proton. Dreaming is free!

I'm not a fan of people thinking Gabe does everything, from haters and lovers alike (though, based on what I'll say, there's maybe more reason to hate Gabe for getting the credit). We need more appreciation for the current Valve team, especially the engineers who made Steam Deck and all the Steam features happen.

If Gabe dies, whoever gets the reins (kid or close friend) literally just has to do nothing, and the team just has to keep getting younger likeminded folk onboard.

This isn't a Nintendo situation where most higher ups are greedy bastards and Satoru Iwata had to hold all of them off.

Yeah, I'm not worried about the actual work. I'm worried about company culture. Example: If the new owner of the 51% decides to go public, we are all royally fucked.

But why WOULD he?
