through 3rd party apps
this will be steam

Wouldn't that just make the competition for steamdeck much higher?
>>
So they'll let you put SteamOS on non-Valve hardware? That would be goated actually.

Good for regular games but emulators like pcsx2 and yuzu clones suck ass on ARM

they earn more from selling games

I don't think Valve really cares. They are still skimming 30% off the top of every game sale.

didnt they say when they released the steam deck they wanted other manufacturers to make steam handhelds? this is pretty much that

At the end of the day more people will be getting Steam games.

This will inevitably lead to official Steam client capable of running games on Android devices.

you're better off putting lineageos on it. it can unlock 165hz on the odins.

Yeah, this is obviously to go after mobile phones.

Honestly, I hope this adds enough competition to the chinkheld market that they actually try to improve their quality. Kinda like with 8bitdo when more and more competition cropped up.

>>737117487
They dont even sell the deck anymore and deck 2 is dead until 2028/9 at minimum.

>>737114489

Valve doesn't give a fuck about that, they don't make their money from selling Steam Decks. They make it from selling games.
