Important edit: The Steam Controller is not totally out of stock. They are toggling availability to limit orders. If you have not yet gotten one, continue checking the site.

Who all managed to get one?

Who’s with me in the “impatiently has to wait for them to return to stock” camp?

What excites you most about the Steam Controller?

    Same here. I was through the sequence and trying to buy by no later than maybe 1:00:10, and tried three different payment methods, all to no avail. I don’t think we had a chance on this go-round.

      I am disproportionately angry about this for some reason. This has happened with several concerts I wanted to see, too. “Oh, you want tickets to an even marginally popular artist? Fuck you.” Then factor in how fucking expensive computer parts have become since all the AI shit a while back. I’m just so goddamn tired.

      At least my beloved Pebble watch was resurrected.

      Did you get the “There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction.” Error? Just spam continue on that screen. Don’t bother changing payment methods, it’s their processor that’s dying.

        I’m stuck on that screen as well even though I had added the money to my account last week already. It’s not (only) their processor.
