The pad will be compatible with PCs, Valve's handheld console, the Steam Deck as well as its upcoming gaming PC.

could be that the touch pads are the same size and everything else is smaller.

there are a lot of reviews already and most of them seem disappointed. which is weird because the price seems te be the main sticking point.

Damn, I just found out about the controller today, I didn’t realize it was already going out. I’ll have to check out the reviews when I have a bit of time, but I may be holding out on my gen1 for a good while.

Here’s hoping the console/VR products they’ve got coming are more impressive.

I think “most of them seem disappointed” doesn’t really capture the overall sentiment, but definitely check some video reviews and decide for yourself.

i’m probably still gonna get one or two of these, because i want to play on a bigger screen with deck-like controls.

it’s been known for many years now that the new controller would have basically nothing to do with the old one. it had too many compromises.
