Imo I think the steam controller didn’t take off because it relied so hard on the touch pads (the touchpads also clicked, which I didn’t like). Now with the steam deck it adds two real joysticks, and pressure sensitive touchpads which are so much better. So if they were to make a steam controller 2 it should have two joysticks as well as two touchpads. Pretty much all they have to do is make the steam deck without the screen.
The first one didn’t sell that well, so doubt it. Which is a shame, since it’s the best controlled I ever had. If they removed the buttons and put in a joystick (or removed the right Gaben nipple) it would’ve been perfect.

But so many people have decks now, it would make sense to market a dedicated controller for docked mode. At least that’s what I’m desperately hoping for.
