The steam deck is at what? 5-6m by now?

This will do far worse, one because of the price and two because it's far less useful to current PC gamers. A handheld pc makes more sense as a companion to your desktop than this.

I think Steam Deck is around 6M maybe?

I expect around half the performance here, even with the insane price, it'll have a niche.

3M is the most I can see it doing by 2030.

I honestly don't expect it to sell more than say ~1m units lifetime or so.

What's also wild here is that if your care about specs and not flexibility/having your Steam library, PS5 Pro is cheaper.

The PS5 Pro is many times more powerful machine too.
SteamMachine is weaker than the Base PS5 (by like ~15%).
