Steam Controller shows signs of life, as leaker suggests that Valve has received its "first large quantity" shipments (www.pcguide.com)

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.

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.

Fortunately it doesn't contain RAM or flash storage or a GPU, so you may not need to go to humiliation levels of money.

I hear you. I preloaded my Steam with 150cad. During the steam deck pre order the hold up when the website worked was payment processors.

Thanks for the reminder. I don't think I encountered payment issues with the Deck (I used a credit card and was early enough to be in one of the April 2022 waves), but better safe than sorry.

I broke my first steam controller, and an old xbox controller, beating the final boss of Sekiro. My replacement is more-or-less a shelf ornament at the moment due to its irreplaceable nature. That old man's got a lot to answer for.

I will also be at the front of the queue for this. Hesitation is defeat, after all.
