While many buyers were already in line for 2022, initial buyers who got in early were scheduled to get the Playdate in “late 2021.”
While the Switch OLED did make it out this year, the Steam Deck saw a delay earlier this week.
Pre-orders that happened afterward are still slated for the second half of 2022 and groups after 50,000 units in 2023.
The Playdate 2021 pre-orders sold out in just the span of a few minutes, but now they will have to wait to see how the little handheld fares in early 2022.
