I bought one when they first came out, and one when they did the $5 liquidation sale when they were discontinued. I wish I’d bought more, just to be safe.

I feel only *slightly *less ridiculous asking for Steam Controller support in games 😆 But I will keep asking because I fucking love that controller.

Oh shoot why were they discontinued?

Lack of sales IIRC. They’re very neat but kind of niche because of their non-standard layout, they were aiming to be a keyboard/mouse replacement instead of “just another controller”.
Would absolutely love a 2.0 one based off the Steam Deck or something.

I seem to recall a statement made by Gabe that the very conventional control layout of the Steam Deck is in reaction to feedback they got about the Steam Controller, that it needed to have zero learning curve

Man, I miss mine so much

For real. I’m dreading the day mine stops working. It’s taken some drops over the years but it’s still going strong. Legit one of the best controllers ever made. I will absolutely die on this hill.

If they didn’t cost around 60+$ I’d have bought another 3. Instead I just have to buy more Steam Decks :(.

I think they were $5 when they were getting rid of them. Steam links were at least.

I just wish the cap on the stick lasted longer. That rubber dome wore down very fast for me on both of mine.
