Ah, small country life...

Nice. I've been using an 8bitdo, but kinda struggled with my hybrid PC w/ Tv all the way over by the couch setup. A steam controller might be a little less wonky than using KDE connect on my phone

And I will be buying one at 10:01am.

Steam's webshop servers are going to fucking explode.

$150 CAD. Ouch.

Strange review that fixates on the price, which doesn't seem that high to me.

May the Fourth be with us all.

At ~1 hour after the post I'm unable to add to my wish list from my Steam mobile app, indicates "Reservation Servers are busy, please try again" without response.

I really wish they had either made it modular or made a variation that had Xbox style stick layout, I find the dualshock layout with the side-by-side joysticks uncomfortable, would've been the endgame controller.

It's crazy, I haven't bought a console in a while, so I've actually never spent more than $50 on a single controller. That said, I already think I'm going to buy this.

I was really impressed when I used a steam controller at pax years ago, but didn't end up pulling the trigger, my usb Xbox controller was good enough. But that controller has some significant stick drift now, and I have had situations where I really wished it was wireless.

Honestly, I just have a good feeling about this device. I don't know if it'll be as reliable as items like my Logitech mouse for instance, but I'm hoping it lives up to that.

This controller looks quite neat. The part I don’t like is, unless I’m mistaken, it requires steam and won’t work on its own.
