The controller on the deck is actually different though.
It'd be good if they can eventually make a controller that is actually based on the steamdeck's controller design.
I would buy one as soon as I could.
Right, it has more inputs that I find attractive. Especially with Steam Input being a thing, I typically use trackpads as a virtual menu for some games (MMOs typically), with the sticks being the normal move/camera. Then the extra two buttons on the back, helps to bind extra commands to them or tie them to a mode shift.
A Steam Controller 2 with all the inputs of the deck would be a day 1 buy.
Yeah, trackpads in addition to joysticks, rather than instead of joysticks, is such a game changer.
