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”.

    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.

    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…

    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.

    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.
