@Steam By open do you mean not open due to not being able to handle the capacity in shape or form giving us an error about trying again "later" but not specifying what later actually means? Is that what you mean?

I find it extremely puzzling that in 2021 we still have issues with not enough server capacity for people trying preorder/reservation upcoming products. Did @Steam not learning anything from the @nvidia fiasco last year?

@Steam so your store breaks during checkout saying Error Initializing, then it says 'looks like you've made a lot of purchases wait a few hours'. Get your **** together.

@JustinRoiland @Steam I had this and still got my reservation. I messaged support specifically under the Steam Deck tag and said I had that error. I don't know if that fixed it, or the error is faulty!
