Has there been any word/rumours/leaks/speculation/confirmation/any-damn-thing about Valve beginning to sell SteamDeck’s in new territories like NZ or Australia?
Folks, the FOMO is real. Any hope for a Xmas miracle?
Just bite the bullet and pay more for one through mighty ape like I did (If you really want one that is). I can’t imagine we will be able to legitimately buy them for a while.
I bought one from parallel imported about a month ago, $1170 for 256gb model.
I love this thing, haven’t played on pc for 5 years but my steam account is 16 years old and I had 480 games. Going a bit mad on the bundles and now have 580 games, also bought Days Gone, Spider Man remastered and Horizon zero dawn - all amazing games and run great on the Deck.
Can’t wait to pay waaaaaaay too much money for the OLED model some time next year, will keep my LCD as a spare I guess.
I don’t think Valve will come to NZ anytime soon. Bought mine 512gb on Dick Smith for $1229, was a good deal. They are selling the OLED version now, $1499 for 512gb, complete rip-off.
Ummm am I missing something? The Steam Deck is available in NZ, I saw it a couple days ago coz there’s a sale happening for it on Mighty Ape for Black Friday
Valve don’t sell them here, we get to buy from third party stores. If you go to the official store page, you will see “This item is not available for reservation in your region”. https://store.steampowered.com/steamdeck
I just picked up an OLED from Parallel Imported. Pretty expensive, but worth it: https://parallelimported.co.nz/valve-steam-deck-oled/
