Steam Controller shows signs of life, as leaker suggests that Valve has received its "first large quantity" shipments

6 months ago by Fubarberry to c/steamdeck

Valve has reportedly received a large shipment of "Wireless PC" controllers, suggesting things might finally be moving forward.

Leaker here is Brad Lynch, who generally seems reliable as a leaker for Valve software and products. He was also the source for the leaked renders of the steam controller.

Will pay a frankly humiliating amount of money to get one of these ASAP. My OG Steam Controller (my second, in fact) is on death's door.

I hear you. I preloaded my Steam with 150cad. During the steam deck pre order the hold up when the website worked was payment processors.

Thanks for the reminder. I don't think I encountered payment issues with the Deck (I used a credit card and was early enough to be in one of the April 2022 waves), but better safe than sorry.
