As a secondary device to play games besides my big PC, yes. But lot of people have no other PC and the Steam Deck is the only device. Given that some games come at 100gb install size, and people want to install multiple games, 256gb can be low. I use internal space for Steam games and all stuff, and have an 512gb external card just for emulators and Roms.
Steam deck is my only device. I have the 512 oled and am very happy with it. I know other people for whom it’s their only device, I don’t think it’s uncommon. Obviously we have phones, but either don’t need a computer or use one at work and don’t want one at home. Plus the steam deck is a linux computer in a pinch.
256GB ought to be enough for anyone!
I run most of my games off an SD card and it’s been fine.
(It seems people have not heard of the Bill Gates 640KB quote and/or my delivery is off)
And even if it is not, upgrading the ssd was really easy.

I highly doubt there are many people that only have a Steam Deck and not a gaming PC.
hello. I run a steam deck as my main Gaming device and I don’t own a gaming PC. it is nice to meet you.
I do. Guess the question is, what is “many” for you? 1% of all PC users? 5%?

Hence me saying games run fine off an SD card after a reference to a quote falsely attributed to Bill Gates 😁
It’s definitely not enough, I filled it in no time. SD card works fine for me, tho.
