The Steam Deck console seems to be at risk of becoming scarce even before it launches. Valve plans to start the first deliveries in December, but now, when there are several months before the start of sales, the promised delivery times have changed in the US and UK. And they have changed a lot.
Now on the Steam website it is indicated that the older models with SSD are expected to be shipped in the second quarter of next year, and the most available version only after the second quarter, that is, at best in the third, that is, in a year.
Considering the continuing shortage of chips and the significant excitement around the console, this situation seems quite logical. True, it is not yet clear how many people will end up receiving the set-top boxes in December, as was originally promised. It can also be assumed that immediately after the start of sales, the Steam Deck, like the PS5 and Xbox Series X, will appear from dealers with a hefty mark-up.
