I'm glad this wasn't the final design. Those haptic pads and small sticks look awful to use.
Nonetheless, this is cool as hell to see!
I'd bet they're steam controller touch pads, and they're quite a bit bigger than the final steam deck ones. Probably normal sized sticks too, with that in mind. The sizes are relatively identical to my steam controller
Isn't that mostly an unenforceable request? And the fact that's probably stolen or whoever got it had a non disclosure agreement probably is a bigger deal
Did you respond to the wrong person or something?
Seems so. I remember a "not for resale" remark somewhere.
Ah, well I agree that definitely looks unenforceable to me
I really prefer the Steam Controller track pads, shoulder buttons and triggers, they're just much more clicky.
I don't think I have a preference on the touchpads honestly but I vastly prefer the steam deck controls overall. Been hoping for a standalone steam controller 2 ever since it came out
