This was awesome to see. I was a college student just trying to get by back then, but I managed to save enough to buy a Xbox 360 soon after an ex-girlfriend broke up with me. About 7 weeks later I met my future wife and we liked playing GTA 4 together. She had an Xbox 360 Elite, which I was impressed by, lol. I played so much Halo 3. Great years of gaming back then.
Would like a more powerful option. Steam Machine Pro, anyone? Ha.
I wonder how much this thing is going to cost. If it’s something like $799+, they’re going to have a lot of people thinking “eh, I’ll just get a PC.”
But there are advantages to having a dedicated Steam box. I’d like to see it do well. The specs seem good enough, if the price is right. I'm sure they've put a lot of thought and research into it.
I'm happy to see Valve continuing to work on VR stuff. I'm currently using the Meta Quest 3 for VR since it's solid standalone hardware at a decent price, but I'm not a fan of Mark Zuckerberg and Meta in general with how they handle things, so I'd strongly prefer to switch over to Valve for future purchases.

Re: Review: Analogue 3D overclocks the N64 in stellar fashion
Stellar review. Appreciate all the details. I wonder why Analogue kept us all in the dark these years. The product seems good. Why hide it?
