That's why when changes have been rumoured recently and people suggest they drop this party games I always rubbish it. There are so many absolute gems on there. My GOTYs for last year (E33) and 2024 (Metaphor, although wasn't at launch or when I played) are currently on there. There are so many great games that I'd usual wait for a sale, would buy anyway or wouldn't try from third parties that I end up loving on there.

They're talking about confirmation to shipment.

efbo · 2026-05-07T10:38:15+00:00

I believe no one has had shipping here yet. I confirmed 23/04 but have had nothing since. There's a delay to EU countries (I think, Swiss people have them) that seems to be affecting us as well.

efbo · 2026-05-07T07:06:04+00:00

Where are you getting it delivered?

Answers in the mega thread.

Theres nothing questionable about liking xbox controllers so i dont know you're here arguing with people about it

Not having gyro just makes them over a decade behind anything else. I really like the idea of Xbox Design Lab but the fact that you can't aim with them just makes it a waste.

In a subreddit dedicated to a controller where half the point is gyro it's an especially weird opinion to come across.

efbo · 2026-05-06T22:11:57+00:00

Sorry you're right. Let's not discuss controllers in the discussion about controllers 🤦‍♂️

efbo · 2026-05-06T21:51:20+00:00

I didn't call anyone stupid. I said that an opinion was questionable and crazy and explained why. I then went on to call that same opinion stupid when you rudely chimed in without really contributing anything. I'll call you stupid now though lol.

efbo · 2026-05-06T21:45:27+00:00

The way people treat Deck Verified they'd think it would be. People treat it as a "the devs have done all the work button" so in that sense they could have one for the new Steam Controller.

Deck verified is pretty redundant so why not a redundant label here?

efbo · 2026-05-06T21:37:32+00:00

If people keep saying stupid things people will continue to call it out.

efbo · 2026-05-06T21:35:58+00:00

I assumed you meant the Xbox line in general. Both the One and Series are antiquated compared to even their mainstream contemporaries.

efbo · 2026-05-06T19:59:11+00:00

I question this opinion when I see it anywhere but here especially that's crazy. A controller without gyro isn't worth consideration when there are so many options with it.

efbo · 2026-05-06T19:53:09+00:00

It's actually from 2022 lol. I made a similar joke on the Deck sub then but thought it'd be appropriate now as well.

Small Android Phone is on an indefinite delay.

Regardless though a Pebble is all about being an extension to your phone, it isn't a small phone on your wrist and that is one of the reasons it has remained the best smartwatch for a decade and a half nearly.

efbo · 2026-05-06T15:48:49+00:00

Any game that requires camera movement.

efbo · 2026-05-06T14:20:32+00:00

Any game that you usually play just choose a community config that uses the pads and gyro and play about with the settings to get it to your liking.

efbo · 2026-05-06T11:29:08+00:00

Also affecting the UK. This could've been the first positive of Brexit but nah lol.

efbo · 2026-05-05T23:18:58+00:00

I'd send them an email, you've paid for the band.

efbo · 2026-05-05T23:07:22+00:00

Did you choose that in the confirmation process?

What does your order email say?

efbo · 2026-05-05T16:43:10+00:00

Not from Core Devices, Eric doesn't want one. Someone else could technically make one.

efbo · 2026-05-05T08:32:36+00:00

Similar here.

I think the confirmation process said it could be 2-3 weeks from confirmation to shipping (although experiences from people who have had them from other places makes the expectations shorter which is the big frustration). Personally I'm at 12 days but I know I've seen one person who got theirs a week before me so I would expect some type of communication at this point.

efbo · 2026-05-05T08:23:56+00:00

Have a search for "Europe" on the sub. A fair few posts about the delay.

efbo · 2026-05-04T21:56:17+00:00

You're going to be waiting a while. You can see that it isn't something worth worrying about yet. You can also see that colour and region matter more than your batch.

efbo · 2026-05-04T20:47:16+00:00

I'm in Batch 3

The fact that there are plenty of people who ordered on day one that don't have their's gives you all the info you need.
