"Steam Controller ran out faster than we anticipated, and we hate that not everyone who wanted one was able to get it. We’re working on getting more in stock and will have an update on expected timeline soon."

At this point, I'm not really even going to bother. I'll just wait another year or so until people get enough then snag one.

I still haven't bought a PS5 because of this lol. At first it was too expensive and scalpers bought them all, so I thought "no worries, I'll wait a year or two and get one on the cheap when it's older." And then the price kept going up over time so I just never bothered.

My son has bugged me for a PS5 and I almost got one, but then convinced him that steam is more than enough for us. A friend of mine has over 2000 games and he shared it with me. Thankfully, my son was convinced 😂
