You say Steam Frame is a standalone headset which is true, but I just want to add that one of the biggest use cases seems to be wireless PCVR at a quality that’s never been reached before.

Wasn’t there a Steam Machine released back in 2015? Is this just a new version? And you teased a “new GameCube” in the title, but I didn’t hear anything about it.

I’m always surprised to see people over 16 playing video games. They need to grow up a bit and engage with real life. If we’re going to ban social media for those under 16, we should ban video games for those over 16.
