I'm always surprised by how small the Steam Deck playerbase is. It has such strong word of mouth, but the niche it supports seems pretty small.

First iterations of a console always start out small. It's the second iteration that has the consumer confidence and you get a boom in sales. If the Steam Machine drops this year. I expect it to sell 10 million consoles in the first year.
