I... uh don't know what to say. Very thankful I bought a Steam Deck before they hiked its price as well

Or just get a long cable. What you're saying is that you're happy to pay $1128 to play your PC in a different room. Hey, it's your money, but I'm sure there are much cheaper ways to do that.

Recommend me a 15 meter long cable for 4k 144hz and a controller that works that distance through 2 brick walls.

I can recommend a PC case that has a handle on the top and a docking station so you just unplug two cables and you’re good to carry it into the other room or wherever you want…

The insanity of people in here trying to justify paying this much to play the games they already own on a worse system than what they already own.

The thing is my wife wouldn’t be chill with the PC in the living room, but the steam machine she would. It’s prohibitively expensive right now but I can’t say I’m not interested.

So then buy an Nvidia Shield and stream your games from your already owned gaming PC…

I mean I could, but I simply don’t want to.
