Steam Deck OLED gets a price increase across Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan

KOMODO announced over the weekend that the Steam Deck OLED is getting a price increase across Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan.

In a short post they said: "Due to increased logistics costs and shifting exchange rate conditions that have persisted since the initial launch of Steam Deck, KOMODO has made the difficult decision to raise the price of Steam Deck OLED in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan."

The new pricing:

Region Old Price
(512GB)
New Price
(512GB)
Old Price
(1TB)
New Price
(1TB)
Japan JPY 84,800 JPY 99,800 JPY 99,800 JPY 114,800
South Korea KRW 839,000 KRW 898,000 KRW 989,000 KRW 1,048,000
Taiwan TWD 18,880 TWD 18,980 TWD 21,980 TWD 22,480

Hong Kong is not getting a price increase as it has been "less impacted by these factors".

Given all the issues Valve has seen with stock shortages of the Steam Deck OLED elsewhere, it will be interesting to see if Valve directly decide to raise their prices. We've not heard anything on that yet though. All three models of the Steam Deck in the UK are in stock, with Canada / USA currently still out of stock and checking in the EU via Poland they're also completely out of stock still.

I heard that inflation hit Japan quite hard so I'm not really surprised 🤔

Narf. I even got scammed while trying to buy a used Steam Deck OLED... not fun. Now i have ordered an Anbernic RG 476H and will try to make it a mini-Steamdeck. Will report when it worked.
