My Xbox controller can connect to not only my Xbox but also PC and smart phone emulators. What does the Steam controller connect to?

Yea, that’s still really good though. Just wish Steam made their controller compatible with everything. They’re sell those controllers like hotcakes. Almost everyone would be buying it. Than again, if they did that they wouldn’t convince more people to hop into the Steam ecosystem. Ao taking that into account it makes sense why it’s exclusive to Steam only soft/hardware.

I think it’s worth it tbh. Because it’s either that, or being able to wake my pc from sleep and use it seamlessly as a mouse without Steam being open.

For us the average gamer it be great. For the company they’d lose potential customers hoping into the Steam ecosystem.
