Valve don't exactly like to give out sales numbers, so we often have to make educated guesses but sometimes with huge hits like Black Myth: Wukong, it gives us a slightly clearer idea on how the Steam Deck is actually selling.

A particularly fun bit:

So then, how about Fortnite on Linux / Steam Deck? Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney said when it hits “tens of millions of users” that it “would actually make sense to support it”. We must be pretty close by now right? Why ignore a platform that’s sold multiple millions, and is clearly just continuing to fly off the shelves?

    Even if they were working on it, they wouldn’t tell, otherwise a bunch of people would be waiting on the steam deck 2 instead of buying the current one.

      They’re gonna make a Black Myth 2? We’ll shit, I can skip the first one.

      Alternatively…

      What if they might make a Steam Deck 3? Better skip the 2nd one as well.

        We all know there isn’t going to be a steam deck 3. Best we can offer is a steam deck 2 episode 2.
