The lacking international support with Valve hardware limits market spread like most consoles. Plus they'll probably not really advertise outside of Steam store and these initial YouTube videos/Influencer releases.

Valve kinda hamstrings their own full potential despite doing so well already.

    What markets can't you buy Steamdeck in? (honest question)

    It's pretty much only available in US, EU, Australia and a few Asian countries (Japan, S. Korea). I can't even buy one officially in Switzerland, and I imagine the markups are much higher anywhere in the global south.
