To be fair, even if it was $, most Steam Decks costs around (or less) than one tenth of a triple A game’s price. Selling hardware in this quantity is insanity.
Edit: 10 times. Not one tenth. Oops. I meant that they need to sell less than 1/10th in VOLUME to match the sum of a triple A game. And selling that much hardware is really impressive in my opinion.
OMFG I MEANT 10X THE PRICE, NOT ONE TENTH. sorry for the confusion 😅
The message was that the deck has to sell less than 1/10th as many “units” as a triple A game to match the price sum. So imagine hardware selling 1/10th that of a single software. Pretty impressive.
Is it measured by $ or amount of purchases? Because if it’s $ then I’m not surprised :)

Can you clarify, a steam deck is like 400 bucks and a game is like 60-70
I guess with all the MTX and DLC, some games might come ahead in cost, but that’s definitely not the standard…
I don’t think those are accounted for the Top Sellers list anyway
He’s right if he’s talking about that fucking train simulator game with $4K of DLCs ;)
See the edit, I was pretty tired when writing the comment. Sorry for the confusion
Are you by chance confusing Steam Decks with Steam Links?
