It’s 2.6 million. The Vita sold 16 million and the PSP sold 80 million. So to put the 2.6 million into perspective with new handhelds. It doesn’t seem to have done great. The N-Gage from Nokia was 3 million sold units. The 2% is just how many Linux users on Steam there are which is absolutely inflating the numbers. The numbers I see reported specifically for Steam Decks sold are estimated to be 3 million by the end of 2023. I don’t think that many people took Linux off of their Steam deck. Also, the estimate is by Omdia which didn’t explain how they got their 2022 numbers or how they estimate 2023 numbers.
2% of a large number is a large number
