I’m job searching right now and can’t really justify the Steam Controller purchase this week. Before getting laid off and RAM-pocalypse, the plan was to buy a Steam Machine and controller when it was going to release early 2026, but clearly that plan has changed a bit.

The FOMO is hitting after the previews this week! Do we think we need to worry about Steam Controller availability later in the year?

I use a DualSense Edge for my PS5, and either an old PS controller when docked or my 8BitDo SN30 when I travel for the Steam Deck. If I had the Steam Machine I’d buy it instantly, but who knows when that will happen and how much it’ll cost.

    Well, it’s 10:40am pacific and it’s out of stock in Canada. I did not think it would come to this as high price point and niche purpose should have dampen demand.
