After searching for a bit i find THIS article with all the announced sales dates. According to it there are still 3 main sale dates left:

  • Return of Steam Scream Fest (Halloween): October 26 - November 2 (additional details to come)
  • Autumn Sale: November 21 - 28 (major seasonal sale)
  • Winter Sale: December 21 - January 4, 2024 (major seasonal sale)

Anyone know if there are any concrete chance to have a discount on the console in these days?

You could buy a refurbished one

They’re out of stock, at least in my steam store

Exactly. The base and middle refurbished are sold out now (17-10-2023)

I have a base deck with a 1TB SD card and haven’t wanted for the more expensive model except for once. Baldurs Gate 3 absolutely thrashed my deck between shaders and massive save files. I eventually symlinked the save problem away from internal storage to SD and it’s been smooth sailing ever since.

For what it’s worth, a newer deck might be on the scene soon with a better WiFi chip, but the current one has been fine.
