I agree. In a chip shortage, we should be reassessing exactly what devices need the chips, and priorities. I am very unexcited by this product, it seems practically useless. Tiger Electronics Handhelds indeed.

The steam deck (a real linux handheld computer) on the other hand, gimme gimme gimme

Okay, but people want different things. If you were to ask me, I would much rather ”reassess” the Steam Deck — a device in which I have no interest, made by a company with a poor hardware track record — than the Playdate — a unique device with interesting exclusives made by two companies I like a lot.
