What do you think?
Yes, at least a large portion of the games that are released will get bundled at some point (not all, mind you), but you still have the window between its release and it getting bundled to get full CV from it. For games that do well, it will (probably) take a while before it gets bundled, but games that don't sell well at all are more likely to get bundled soon after release.

I can already see it getting a problem. For my recent alphabet train I had an awful time trying to find unbundled games for some letters (without spending enough to need a mortgage on my Steam wallet), there are just so many titles now that have been bundled.

These stats are a little old, but I have a tally of all games released on Steam vs. newly bundled games from October 2013 to February 2014. I only posted October and November though.

Rate of games being added to the Steam store has at least doubled since back then, and I believe that the rate of newly bundled games has been decreasing, since at this point most bundles have at least a couple of rebundles.

Hi,
Thanks to bundle sites like Humble, Groupees, Indiegala and many more, even the AAA games get bundled after some time. Considering bundle list and most games owned shows that 3500/6000 games can be bought with deep discount (of course there will be exceptions but these numbers are an estimate).
Also considering most greenlight titles came with pre-Steam key promises via bundles, I believe the rate of new games added falls behind the bundling rate. It is even harder nowadays to find a full CV title for GA between bundles and region locks. So do you think, maybe not all but, most games will be bundled in the future?

Thx.
