Valve raises Steam Deck prices

Valve has significantly increased the prices of its Steam Deck handheld gaming devices by up to $300, representing a rise of over 40%. This price adjustment is attributed to the ongoing global shortage of memory and storage chips. The scarcity of these essential components has driven up costs across the consumer electronics industry, impacting the production and pricing of various gadgets. This situation highlights the broader supply chain challenges affecting the tech sector and consumer product availability.
