It could be a case of reprioritizing existing manufacturing plans to focus more on the 512GB model, at the cost of others, or perhaps a matter of having secured more components to build more Decks. Valve’s move here will be a welcome relief to those who placed an order for the flagship Steam Deck, although it’s not clear how the company has rejigged things so quickly to address stock issues. Those who failed to get their pre-order in as quickly as it should have gone through due to no fault of their own were obviously unimpressed, no doubt doubly so if they didn’t manage to grab a unit before ship dates were seriously extended – and to Q3, as mentioned, for the 512GB device which became the worst-case scenario. When pre-orders launched for the Steam Deck, there was a good deal of controversy as some folks couldn’t get their reservation in due to the website crashing (and being overloaded), or errantly being told they weren’t eligible to order (remember, Valve had a system to block new accounts of scalpers from pre-ordering, but it seems this may have gone awry in some instances).
