Genuine question, why not Steam Deck? I enjoy playing indie games (Into the Breach, One Step from Eden, Into the Void, etc) on my Steam Deck on bus.

It's not available in Norway, and probably won't be any time soon. I could have it sent to a collection point in Sweden and pick it up there, but then I'd have a lot of trouble dealing with a warrenty claim if something doesn't work.

Norway is an odd country to miss out. I kinda just assumed they'd released it in every stable European country.

We're a really small non-eu market. I completely understand why they haven't bothered launching it here.

Sorry to hear that. It makes me thankful that even in a small Asian market like Hong Kong I can get a steam deck through official channel.

I'd definitely have gone with the SteamDeck had it been officially sold here. A more console like experience and the trackpads would have been great for RTS games. Bought a steam controller from a colleague, so at least I can use that for RTS when connecting the ally to a TV.
