So, I was part of the group that never got the chance to get a controller on the 4th, but clicked “reserve” right when the May 8th reservation system opened.
I haven’t seen any news or anyone saying if the most recent batch is shipping yet.
Anyone heard back yet?
I just completed my order this morning. I reserved it about a minute before the official opening of reservations. Hopefully you get your email soon! Delivery says 3-5 business days.
I was lucky and could order right on the release day. It arrived the day before yesterday. So it took quite a while, but… It got here, it feels nice, it works - too bad I haven’t had the time for a longer gaming session yet…
I’m in the same boat as you, no word yet. If I go back to the reservation page, I do have the option to cancel my order, so presumably they at least have my place in the queue.
I was there pressing the button when reservations started. Got the email on May 15th and it was shipped on 18th. It’s arriving today and I’m quite certain that it’s in a pile of other packages in a store near me.
Edit. This edit was typed with the “New! Steam Controller”.
I reserved within a couple minutes of being able to and have heard nothing.
Yes. I got an email to purchase on Tuesday of this week. I also reserved one a few minutes after reservations went live.
Hasn’t shipped yet though.
I reserved when my clock said 1pm. Haven’t heard anything yet
There was a batch of reservations that got to order last Friday. People online said they got reservations in 2 min early from announcement. From what I recall and assuming demands like steam deck the first couple batches in the US were like 2 second increments and then gradually increasing to 20 seconds, other countries were luckier and started 30 seconds to minutes.
Nothing yet. This was posted on May 7th:
Replenishment of inventory will vary from region to region. We will start fulfilling reservations next week in the US / Canada, and UK / EU / AU in the following weeks.
So I’m guessing those of us outside North America will have to wait a while…
My wife reserved just before 1pm EST and it’s shipped, should be here tomorrow.
i reserved about an hour after they opened and haven’t heard anything yet, very psyched they’re shipping already though
I reserved as soon as they opened and got to order on the 18th. It’s supposed to get here tomorrow
I don’t need mine right now. But if this is my chance for the next few months…
Nope. Would be nice if they could give us an estimate or something but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see 🤷♂️
I’m sure it’s going to be at least several months to a year before more are available with how the hardware market has been fucked.
Can you try being at least a little optimistic?
I’m optimistic that it will only be several months to a year before more are available with how the hardware market has been fucked. Surely the unfuckening is imminent.
It’s a controller, not the Steam Machine.
Someone in these comments literally ordered one from a reservation today. So there.
I reserved one a minute before the posted go live time, got to order it Monday and it is arriving tomorrow.
