At this point they arent just waiting on the chip, they're waiting on cost.
Releasing a more expensive system when they just raised the price of the original would be insane.
People do remember consoles normally decrease in price as they age, yes?

If a Steam Deck 2 costs more than 1000 euro/usd, I'm bit interested. The original Steam Deck was interesting to me because it was cheaper than a gaming PC.
I don't see it happening before the AI bubble pops, and after it pops we'll all be too busy scavenging to play games. 😉
Given the price of everything, it’s hard to be excited about this. I’ll probably stick with what I have and get used hardware if I’m hard-pressed to get something more.
