I got my controller and I really like it
For whatever most games map the Nintendo controller wrong. Steam Controller pretty much just works, and it’s so much more reliable than Bluetooth.

You’re officially in the reservation queue for Steam Machine 2TB
I assume if you do not put the 2TB, you’ll hit any of the variations you have selected… unless they change it.

The Nintendo controller has the same button names as the Xbox (defacto standard PC controller) but different placement. If buttons are mapped based on physical position but using Xbox glyphs, Nintendo buttons are called out incorrectly. If buttons are mapped based on name, Nintendo buttons are called out correctly but the controls are positioned weird and displayed wrong if displayed on screen in button layout. PS controllers have no chance of making sense when dealing with lazy devs.
It’s super easy to implement multiple sets of glyphs and mappings for the three main controller types. Pretty much anything else is a clone of those three. I have no clue why so many don’t bother.

That looks like the email you get when you initially reserve it. I think we’re looking for the email subject line for the “Its time to buy it” email so we don’t miss it. I’m interested in that one too.

that was the subject line for the “you have 72 hours” email.
Additionally it shows up in your steam cart until you buy it or remove it. I had a game in my cart and went into the cart a day later and they were both in there.
