why not?? best buy sells steam decks and the ROG ally.... costco sells garbage pre-builts, there is no reason the gabecube shouldn't find retail shelf space, especially since xbox seems intent on exiting the console market.

the fact that it's a linux box is only appealing to nerds, how may ppl actually ran linux on the ps3?? hint: a lot less people than were upset when sony took it away lol. gabecube being a pc is a bonus feature, will it be a big enough bonus feature to drive sales like bundling your fist dvd or bluray player?? probably not.... but it will be enough to maybe sway a few people sitting on the fence?? maybe!
