"IN 16 CARTS"

Maybe the original controller's case will work? But probably not that great. I hope they release a case for the new one.

Ebay listing for steam controller carrying case at $59.99.

"We can't name it Steam Controller 2. People would be confused"

I really wish marketing departments would switch to better cocaine, sometimes

    Even just doing the car thing and calling it "steam controller 2026" would have been fine

    I legitimately don't know what the big deal is, Ive had a Steam Controller for years...

    But yeah, I thought dualsense/dualshock was bad, but steam controller/steam controller is goddamn ridiculous

    What will they do if there is a new Steam Controller in the future? Name it Steam Controller again? Or name it Steam Controller 2? Then every reference in the web to Steam Controller 2 would be hell confusing. I don't hope this is the start of bad naming like Microsoft got themselves into with Xbox consoles.

    Steam Controller One.

    Still have no idea why Microsoft did that.

    "New 3DS" is still the worst name, tbf

    Not really, the New 3DS came after the 3DS but still shared the library

    How will you refer to it if a followup gets released? Or you sell an old used one? Make sure to not cause potential confusion

    Ehhh it’s kinda bad. I love my N3DSXL but even the abbreviation is a bit of a pain to type on a mobile device.

    On eBay there is a

    Used Japanese New Nintendo 3DS XL LL Pokemon Solgaleo Lunala console

    which is pretty funny

    I have the Mojora's Mask version, but I stored the power adapter in the same bag as the console and went on a road trip and the whole back of the shell got terribly scuffed. 😖 Like gouged, even. The little folding plug had opened up and sat there vibrating against the shell for hours.

    Well if they called it Steam Controller 2 what would they call the next one?
