    For consoles in general Sony and Nintendo are the top dogs, no question, but I remember refreshing the pre order page over and over, got my order in about 10 minutes and was still placed in wave 3. I think scalpers are also largely responsible for both the Steam Deck and Switch sales, as I know no one IRL who has either and most of my friends are nerds.

      Are you from the US ? I procrastinated my preorder and did it a week after they opened them, and I think I got in wave 2 (western Europe).

        On the OG Steam Deck or the OLED one? I am from Germany. I think you may have been in wave 2 of the next year block. There is no way you’d have received it in the same year, unless there was an error.
