I hate it here.

Yernemm · May 4

thank you volvo 💖

Ken Penn · May 4

Okay can we please get a steam deck restock? Like I get it new hardware is cool. But the one thing you have built this hardware around is not available. Should of put your ram towards the Deck before new hardware.

IshaBoiAlex (Comms OPEN: 0/5) · May 4

I stayed patient and I’m surprised I managed to secure mine! Can’t wait to use it!!

Marius · May 5

Please add Norway. Come on Valve! It’s more than ten years now, we have to import for ourselves for a big premium to get any of your gear.

FairStarter · May 4

Why didnt you do the down payment thing like you did with the deck?

Erinalope · May 4

I was working at work and missed it :( Have fun everyone else. And scalpers can get spartan kicked off bottomless cliff.

Goram · May 4

Make sure you include some stickers, eh, don't be cheapstakes. hehe. (:

Michael · May 5

What good is the "Wishlist" if I didn't get a notification when it was available? I'd have bought it immediately if I'd known. End of the day, out of stock aready.

Jared · May 4

Managed to snag mine ~2 mins before release, looking forward to testing those comfy big back buttons and the pads! Fingers crossed that the Frame is next and that my trigger finger is as capable when the time comes xD Will be grabbing the machine as well for fam, tho price dependent

🦇 J 🦇 · May 4

Given it's near instant sell out, can you give details on when physical stocks will return?

BlueJayz474 🇨🇦 · May 4

Next up, Steam Machine. Afterward…hopefully…Half-Life 3.

Rodge · May 4

Got my order in. Was way less stressful than trying to get the steam deck.

Kab Adaephon Delat · May 4

I had a medical appointment an hour ago and it's already out of stock lol

Kit-cat · May 4

Feedback for any future launch - replace this message for: "Spam continue until it works lol"

carrie · May 4

i still have the og steam controller, lmao. great piece of hardware imo

Peyton Marquart · May 4

Guess working an hour over w as too much.

Emmie · May 4

that was worse than the steam deck launch, I thought you would of figured this out by now

@mundox.bsky.social · May 4

unless your fingertips are on the wrong place! ha!

Roman Gato 💞🐈 · May 4

Thanks for allowing scalpers to ruin this whole thing, great job guys 👍

TotallyNotAnAlienHidingInAFleshSuit · May 4

This looks really clunky and hard to hold...

Daniel Jones · May 4

Could you kick your payment processor? Seems like they have fallen over! (Valve side is working just fine from the looks of it)

Pendragon · May 4

Why is the store never prepared for this shit lol.

Kerfliggle · May 4

Gotta collect em all!

polocatfan · May 4

this is misinfo. the steam controller is currently not for sale as it is out of stock. please don't spread misinfo valve.

Unnamed menace · May 4

Everyone ordering trying to order be like

sixtyfps · May 4

Dude, checkout is bugged. Wtf

BluBlazer · May 4

Anything but making a new half life game

Derped Crusader · May 4

Product consumed!

Bruce Arrick · May 4

Valve, please let me put down a deposit so I have a place in line! I don't want to have to wait an indefinite period before scalpers beat me to the punch again!

@areseverhart.bsky.social · May 4

It is already out of stock and scalpers are already selling pre orders for 230 usd

FKFTSH · May 5

Any plans to deal with the infestation of Nazis all over Steam's discussion boards and reviews, or are y'all just going to keep on hoping nobody notices?

TogenMerfagen (18+ No Minors) · May 4

"Not available for purchase on you're region"

@blurymind.bsky.social · May 4

It wont let me buy it! There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance.

oriburg 🦌 · Jun 2

what is this little man doing here

NovaDorium · May 4

That thing went out of stock quickly! I’m glad I got mine!

monty.py · May 4

valve, please, i’m begging on my hands and knees, open up backorders so i can at least get a spot in line to get it. i got the payment error for 20 minutes before stock ran out :(

The T.C. · May 4

Thanks but I already got one few years ago!

MothMan · May 4

Don't buy scalped controllers or you are the problem. Full stop. "No cap" as the kids today say. "Periodt" as their now aging gen Z parents who are beginning to learn what being old feels like used to say.

Aeryn 🖖 Part Time Ma'am · May 4

Neat, so are you guys even still making Decks or...?

🔞Shebby · May 4

scalpers took everything and are reselling them for $200 lmfao

macoud12 | Cyberspace Explorer · May 4

Breaks checkout every time, huh?

νιηηу 🖤 · May 4

Sold out (Canada), congratz

homoelohim.bsky.social · May 4

I think I preferr to play 100million dollar games like Barron.That way I'm rewarded for my time....Link in Bio.

charbo garbo · May 4

Fuckin can’t. Fix your shit.

ALICAI · May 4

one of these days we'll live in a society with hardware preorders. one day 😇

SoggyMicrowaveNugget · May 4

The second the buy button was available I was trying to purchase it, for 30 minutes it refused to take my money with an error. Then it was sold out after that 🫠… naive of me to think I could buy a product I like.

Burn Division Games · May 4

I couldn't fucking order one today. For half an hour I tried. It kept giving me "problem with your transaction" error with PayPal and even with my Debit card. I know I have the money. You fuckers owe me a damn controller.

@gumbyxgames.bsky.social · May 4

How can a company with as much money and as many resources as Valve screw this up this badly? This happened with the Steam Deck and you learned NOTHING. Countless existing customers have wasted hours trying to buy this damn controller and got nothing. Now scalpers are selling them for $200+.

Zeno (reseph) · May 4

Out of stock?

Shm1tas · May 4

Got two!!

Olivia W' · May 4

You told me to wait a few minutes and try again. You told me that right up until it was out of stock. Losing out because I tried to follow the directions is not a good feeling.

Oretal · May 4

That was fast. I guess keep us alerted for when restocks happen.

Albino · May 4

there is already people scalping....way to go valve

Oleai · May 5

This isn't the day you said it was going on sale. Not cool

Abby Normal · May 4

Already out of stock 😭 I had hoped the delays meant you guys had used the time to properly stock up.

The Beaver Mom · May 5

Whilst I personally appreciated being able to put two in my cart I'm kinda worried if that make the scalper situation worse or not

0dd · May 4

Something worthwhile? In this economy?

KevoJackal/VynJackal · May 5

Couldn't buy it due to errors now its out of stock :<

Ferenc Presser · May 4

After 25min, I was able to order it.

Flat The Witch · May 5

"made to play all your games on steam" Wrong! Made to be scalped

Ujn Hunter · May 4

Nice. I look forward to seeing how it stacks up to my tried and true OG Steam Controller. :)

EpicestGaymer · May 4

Please fix the issues before the steam frame launches valve please im begging you im on my knees.

Millions · May 4

out of stock </3

Votaia Binicci 🐇⚔️ · May 4

Ran into several errors before I was able to put my order in, I REALLY hope the Machine and Frame have the reservation system for preorders that the Deck had

Piccolo113 · May 7

For the scalpers and those too stupid to not buy from them, sure. Not for the vast majority of us regular people. You should have put in a requirement that accounts had to be at least over a year old to order one. You still would have sold out, only it would be real customers with the receipts.

Aleksandra · May 4

Got any ten year payment plans for the overprized plastic ?

SteVie · May 4

Spam that continue button for a few minutes and through to payment! Good luck everyone!

@zerby.bsky.social · May 4

Scalpers are already selling them for twice the price.

Nic · May 4

I've got your steam controller right here

@mellowcanuck.bsky.social · May 4

Expensive but I can see where it went. I'll grab one.

Ravenheart · May 4

Got mine ordered!

Gus Constantine · May 5

I'm not paying 99€ for a controller XD

versesZero · May 4

A small part of me is laughing at people struggling to give away their disposable income. The other 90% of me is sad because I want one too but $100 is just a little too much to spend rn. If they keep up production and it eventually goes on a steam sale I'll be there though.

Jason · May 4

Any chance you got a local pickup option? Because I can come up almost any day and just grab mine.... please?

Michel Oliveira · May 4

Can´t buy in Brazil...

MegaJord · May 4

Thanks for linking to the store! Oh, what is this, I see?

Chipo 🏳️‍⚧️ -> WPAFW · May 4

Well looks like I'll be dealing with support to get a refund for my wallet because you're now out of stock :\ Steam deck all over again dammit.

Lazlo Panaflax · May 4

Done and done!

NoQueso · May 4

Transaction never finished and now out of stock. Not ideal.

Icesune · May 4

Lord of Whales · May 4

I’d love to buy but steam wont let me

Cassette Rokhausen XcX ccru/aud.int 🏴 · May 4

pro tip: buy a knock-off xbox controller. it's cheaper and at the warehouse.

Fermenter Games · May 4

Insane posture on all these povs

Fish Lady Abs · May 4

All I want to know is how much they cost compared to the old ones and how well they work - also compared to the old ones. Cos I still have my old one.

Slim_Java (Purple Guy) · May 4

Valve please......

EcoNomad · May 4

I'm trying to buy it

cyncerely sinical · May 4

no controller is worth 100 dollars

Ryan Hagele 🇨🇦 · May 4

Scalpers seem to have gotten alot of the stock. Tons up for sale on ebay but already out of stock on steam

Girl Spelling · May 4

Checkout not working in any browser/device. Tried new guest account. Also not working

Starbit 🐶✨ · May 4

Hey, this got botted like crazy and I wasn’t able to get an order in, when are you expecting to do a restock on these?

Lee Thumwood · May 4

Looks awesome.

ねこパンチ 🐾💥 · May 4

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

GhostSonic · May 4

Thanks for wasting my fucking time guys

Vantablack · May 4

Bro I'm trying, I have the money just please accept my purchase request.

falls 🏳️‍⚧️ · May 4

Hope you someday allow us to buy from South America

Nikki Sayo 🔞 · May 4

That price tho

@yentz.bsky.social · May 4

Was in immediately at 10, just got error message after error message till even it showed sold out. Very shitty experience. I hope you guys figure out a queue system cause this was terrible.

Dewdrop · May 4

Absolutely dogshit launch. You had such a good a system for the deck when it came to slowly rolling out purchases, why would you go back to something this server heavy when you already know the payment page can't handle it? The scalpers are happy ig.

jenny tightpants · May 4

screaming and crying

max · May 4

Can you please restock sooner than 1 month

💙🌧️くろぉでぃ🔞 @ (twitch: drclaudy) · May 4

hi valve can you send cease and desists and other lawsuits to scalpers thank you

warpfork · May 6

This post is how I found out about this, and now I want one. (Yes, on linux, too. I probably show up in your stats as Windows more often than not, but I'd love to make that number drift downnnnn :))

Lao · May 4

PLEEAAASEE STEAM I NEEED THIISSSS witchsky.app/profile/lao....

Rh1nos · May 4

Seeing all the newly listed postings on Ebay for the controller at 200-300+ dollars makes my blood boil... Hopefully Valve can restock soon so no one feels pressured to buy from scalpers

DAAS · May 4

Black Matt, Thought Criminal · May 4

Out of stock within the hour. Scalpers get to sell it for double though, so that's neat...

Pat! is a 🔜BFC bnuuny 💚🏳️‍⚧️ · May 4

tried, and couldn't get one. I've been waiting for this ever since the first one was discontinued, and wasn't able to do it despite funds in wallet :/ this sucks.

@remmbermytitans.bsky.social · May 4

Hey guys! Just secured mine. Do you know if it will be possible to order an additional puck in the future? Would love to have one at my desk and in my living room if possible!

@stylersutton.bsky.social · May 4

Don’t lowball me i know what I got.

Cailem · May 5

Cancel everyone's pre-order that has more than 1. This is just bullshit. And yeah too bad for large families, idc, they're in the minority, most people who purchase a lot do it for the sake of selling it further.

@neondriver86.bsky.social · May 4

Add haptic feedback/resistance to triggers and I'm getting one day one.

@teksabetsaw.bsky.social · May 5

Ok, when's the restock 😂

@bertpigeon.bsky.social · May 4

dammit sold out already

nene lindo™♿ · May 4

Brasil when?

UndrTehStairs · May 4

lol I'm already too late. Out of stock. Glad it's popular I guess.

+celene! · May 4

Got one in! Now to wait for Steam Frame.

Paulternate · May 4

What is the deal? Got it in my cart. Errors with the payment. I better not lose this out of my cart.

sesvanbrubles · May 4

Not working. Don't let scalpers win pls

Xyler Foxpuffs · May 4

I got mine! Now the agonizing wait for the shipping!!!

Karl He/Him · May 5

I got one but feel bad for people who missed out because scalpers got them

Lizardguy | check pinned post · May 4

When cube?

⚽️ Stinky Dog ⚽️ · May 4

Payment won’t process. Don’t you want our money? 😭
