    I’m so happy for everyone else in these comments saying they got on the reservation list.

    That reminded me to check my email and I’m in queue for the 1Tb. I think this might rate my first woot in over a decade.

    Woot!

    I actually got in the queue but I probably can’t afford the damn thing right now, I was being a bit optimistic when I signed up lmfao

    Same here, EU and 256GB version. Have not seen anyone anywhere saying they won the lottery yet.

    Don’t want to give anyone false hope, but I got a Steam Machine reservation email about a month after ending up on the waitlist (I’m sadly in the US).

    Damn, that email meant I missed the draw?

    I’ve missed every steam lottery draw and this one sucks the most. 50% odds, too, apparently.

    Same, and still on the wait-list (me and my partner) for the Machine. Some rough luck for us!!

        Sigh, still no mail. I choose to believe that we’re just so far at the front of the queue that Valve doesn’t bother sending us the reservation mails because we will be getting ordering mails right away 😤

    I own three Steam Decks and my account was made when Half Life 2 released. I have been “past” the wait-list on both the Machine and the Frame.

    Like, oh well, but still.

      21 years, active, good standing. Also waitlisted, rather hear that than nothing whatsoever, though.

    I was literally sitting at a table with my only other friend who ordered one when the mail got sent, she got in and I didn’t.

    Salty, to say the least.

    Waitlist also, western NA region, 1TB model. Damn.

    What are y’alls thoughts for when the next wave for reservations may go out? What were Machine/Controller waitlists like? This is my first foray into Steam lotteries.

      The controller page gives an estimate now (the one someone sent me just said “2027” but that’s something, apparently for some it said a specific month in 2026). Maybe after the first batch of reservations is fully sold the frame page will be updated similarly. Though if the website in the OP doesn’t have some major sampling bias, it doesn’t seem unlikely that the next batch will cover the remaining pre-registrations. Though when that batch will be not even valve might know right now.

    In the queue for a 1TB (USA). I hope everyone gets their reservation in the coming weeks!

    I’ve had quite a shit year in general and previous bad luck with the Steam Controller and Machine, so this was a nice change.
