What do you guys think about Valve´s new handheld Steamboy? It´s way more powerful than the Vita.

Is the Vita really doomed now?

A handheld with SteamOS...so it will only play games which are

• linux-compatible AND
• controller-optimized AND
• not very hardware-hungry

Additionally, they have to sell the handheld with a profit, so it will be very expensive. It's no project of Valve, who could offer a Steam handheld under production costs. There ain't even another big player behind it like Nvidia, who can afford some exclusive deals or financial losses, if the project fails. 

Yeah, Vita is really doomed.
