Leaker here is Brad Lynch, who generally seems reliable as a leaker for Valve software and products. He was also the source for the leaked renders of the steam controller.

    That controller is the lynchpin for making a mini PC my future home theater center. I care for it more than the steam machine

    Will pay a frankly humiliating amount of money to get one of these ASAP. My OG Steam Controller (my second, in fact) is on death’s door.

    I have a setup with my Dualsense Edge (and Steam Deck) for FPS games where I use flick stick and gyro to aim, and swipe on the touchpad to switch weapons. It works disgustingly well. I play FPS games on controller now.

    This is the only new valve hardware I am interested in. I love the steam deck track pads, so having them on a controller will be awesome.

    I have a bunch of nice controllers that all work on my gaming PC and Macs, etc.

    But I’ll probally buy one of these too. I feel like it’s compulsory in a weird nagging way.

    I’m waiting years for this, even longer than the Steam Deck exists! I think that I buy it twice, one to use it and the second one as collection (and backup). :-) (Edit: typo, I didn’t meant unpacked)

    Just a note, as someone who owns a Stream controller ignore the sticks, it’s the pads you should be using.
