MODERATORS
Was it really a flop? I thought they needed to clear stock because of some patent dispute with ~~Crucial~~ Corsair.
Edit: as pointed, it was Corsair, not Crucial
Not Crucial, Corsair. They own SCUF, the patent trolls that decided to keep back buttons for themselves.
Thankfully Valve eventually won their appeal, and SCUD's patent was invalidated. But by that point the damage was already done
Thanks for the correction, you are right. I only have one PSU from Corsair, our paths didn't cross that much.
Yep. It was. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/court-upholds-jurys-decision-in-steam-controller-patent-dispute
