They don’t sell the steam deck in Australia?
They don’t, but irritatingly, when one of its accessories are on sale Steam will pitch it to me.
Not officially. There are resellers but they have their own risks.
That’ll probably be the big news from all this, further global release. I’m not holding my breath for the next iteration until the end of the next console generation (the upcoming "switch 2"generation)
Huh, TIL. Are any of its competitors like the Legion Go or ROG Ally available?
Yes, both the Ally and the Go are sold in Australia. However it’s also quite easy to order a “grey import” Steam Deck from Amazon, which is what I did. I’m guessing the sheer number of Steam Decks that have been sold into Australia that way are factoring into Valve’s decision, because anecdotally among my peers the Steam Decks owned outnumber the Allys 4:1. Pretty impressive for a device not officially sold here.
Why don’t they sell the deck in Australia? Does it stop working when you turn it upside down or what?
Assuming you want an actual answer, supply lines and distribution. We didn’t get the index for ages either until EB Games took on the distribution.
