Still no release date for the controller :/
It might be a strategy to wait until closer to release and shortly after price reveals so people don't hoard and panic buy the controller.
Personally my Steam Controller is nearing the end of its life on the stick and touchpad so it would be really cool if they at least have a presale for those who have purchased the Steam Controller before or people who had it in their wishlist.
They're most likely all realeasing on the same day
But the controller has no RAM and I only want a controller. They could already be making a profit and solve all the panic/bulk-buy shenanigans for one of the things at least.
I think they're holding the controllers back because they worry they won't keep up with demand when the Steam Machine releases.
I wish they would just start selling them to us, though.
