Hey folks, I wanna gift a steam deck to myself. The main games I’ll (infrequently) play on there are CS:Go and age of empires 2 HD, both of which I own and never get a chance to play on a regular PC.

I suppose I want the OLED one. Is it ok to go for the 64 GB version or should I go for the higher storage tier? It has expandable storage yeah? Or is that not reliable or fast enough?

Also, what’s going on with the pricing? It’s just obviously better to buy direct. Why are people trying to sell it on Amazon? I get people trying to sell on eBay and Craigslist but Amazon? What’s the deal there?

There's not even a 64GB LCD anymore.

There is, and it's only $349. Huge savings over the base OLED if you don't need the battery life or 90 hz, etc., and you can upgrade the SSD at some point.

Welp, I stand corrected. Just assumed they would have sold out by now.
