Do you guys think its a good time to bring back the steam machine that runs steam OS?

Picture a console sized steam machine running steam OS and it has specs that can compete with any modern console? I would 100% buy it. I consider myself more of a console gamer but I would love to bang out a few games on the 4k TV instead of docking my deck.

I think there is a market for a non portable steam OS machine. What do you guys think?

    Proton didn’t exist during the original Steam Machines. It’s the final piece of the puzzle. There’s certainly a Steam console coming down the pipe in the next few years.

    A console with the ease-of-use of the Steam Deck, but with more powerful specs that is just for my TV? And my entire Steam library is available? Yeah, I’d buy that in a second.

    I have several PCs already. There’s always something annoying or something to troubleshoot when they’re hooked up to the TV. I’m sick of it.

      Not only that, Big Picture was not nearly as good as what we have today.
