They did try this a while back, steam machines were around at 2015. I could see it getting a rebirth in a similar design to the steam deck in a few years though.
Steam OS and big picture weren’t very mature yet at the time. I think now that the Deck has proven the UX, they could definitely revisit this idea. And I pray that they do because it could mean more Steam controllers on the market

Yes, I’m aware of that. But the software just wasn’t there at the time. But now it definitely is.

Seriously, I ordered a steam controller right before they were discontinued, and got a refund :(
Sad, it really is my favourite media pc controller
