New Valve Hardware Leak [EDIT: OFFICIAL]

[Andrew]

Looks like new stuff from Valve is dropping today(?)!

Komodo, the Japanese distributor for the Steam Deck, went and accidentally let a few things outta the bag. The Steam Frame (VR), a new Steam controller, and a new Steam Machine.

It's real and it has faceplates https://store.steampowered.com/sale/steammachine

wasn't expecting this! the controller looks bloated but it has the touchpads from the steam deck which i find really useful and responsive, idk what to think... and they are finally bringing back the steam machine from the graveyard... it's 2015 all over again

yep just dropped, lowk disappointed. new steam machine seems dope but I was really hoping people were wrong on the steam frame. Would have preferred an overhaul of the index. Not a fan of the inside-out tracking and wifi streaming. I prefer the strength and certainty of IR and cable.

Like shit all I really want is a higher resolution index with less glare-y lenses.

This is where I'm at. I trust Valve to handle it and I adored the original Steam controller (if it had one more stick it would be perfect), the footage of people actually holding it is putting my mind at ease thus far.
