Is anyone else getting/have a Steam Controller?

Has anyone else gotten, or considered ordering, the new Steam Controller?

I've put my name on the waiting list to try it out, but I have no idea how long the wait will be. I've seen a lot of people complaining about the price-point, but my last two controllers have been Xbox Pro Controllers, at twice the price, so it wasn't hard for me to justify. One is going to live on my gaming rig, one will live on my bedroom PC. I'm looking forward to finding out which will live where.

It looks to be incredibly customizable, so I'm looking forward to seeing people's custom settings, once more people can get their hands on them.

If I played more games with controller I'd probably consider the Steam Controller but my PS4 Controller seems to work just fine, especially with the under controller button addon/mod.

That makes sense. If your PS4 controller already does everything you need and works well with the extra button mod, there’s not much reason to switch unless you specifically want the Steam Controller’s trackpads and customization.

Agreed.

Thought I'd add though, I'm simply too p00r.

Valve stuff are teh expensive!

...and I suck at controller anyway so just doesn't make sense for me.
