It is perhaps not surprising that the price of the Steam Deck has gone up, given the state of everything, but even so, just how far it's jumped is straight-up shocking. The 512GB OLED model has gone from $549 to $789, and the 1TB unit has leapt from $649 to $949, an increase of nearly 50%.
So you can enjoy the same gut-punch sticker shock I felt, this is what it looks like in my home country of Canada, where a 1TB Steam Deck now costs $1,349 plus applicable sales taxes—so, in my province, that sucker is going to ring up to well over $1,500. To which I say, what the hell?
