Why a new Steam Machine when the first ones flopped? Because this time, Valve say, it'll actually have games

Still think they missed a step by not calling it the "companion cube".
The GabeCube.
It has a removable face, just print a companion cube on it.
Thank God for that, because after seeing it's ventilation setup, I'm gonna have to drill holes in that front panel. XD
Or you could just take it off.
Yea people would buy it just for the meme clout. It would be a fun game prop if it actually looked like one. If the system flopped at least you have a fun paper weight.
I'm actually hoping to buy one and then see if dbrand or similar sells a companion cube set of vinyl appliques for it. Although I do think the 3D printed faceplates would be much better quality.
