Steam Deck now the global #1 top seller on Steam | Gaming On Linux
With the Steam Summer Sale 2023 now in full swing, and with a big discount on the Steam Deck, it has risen back up the Steam charts.
You're viewing a single thread.
Is it measured by $ or amount of purchases? Because if it’s $ then I’m not surprised :)
To be fair, even if it was $, most Steam Decks costs around (or less) than one tenth of a triple A game's price. Selling hardware in this quantity is insanity.
Edit: 10 times. Not one tenth. Oops. I meant that they need to sell less than 1/10th in VOLUME to match the sum of a triple A game. And selling that much hardware is really impressive in my opinion.
Can you clarify, a steam deck is like 400 bucks and a game is like 60-70
See the edit, I was pretty tired when writing the comment. Sorry for the confusion
I guess with all the MTX and DLC, some games might come ahead in cost, but that's definitely not the standard.....
He’s right if he’s talking about that fucking train simulator game with $4K of DLCs ;)
I don’t think those are accounted for the Top Sellers list anyway
Are you by chance confusing Steam Decks with Steam Links?
OMFG I MEANT 10X THE PRICE, NOT ONE TENTH. sorry for the confusion 😅
The message was that the deck has to sell less than 1/10th as many "units" as a triple A game to match the price sum. So imagine hardware selling 1/10th that of a single software. Pretty impressive.
