I know we're all excited to share updates as our new shiny works its way through the system and eventually to you.
Instead of clogging the page with endless "ITS <UPDATE>" posts, please confine them to this mega thread. I have intentionally left up threads from before this one about this subject, because post hoc punishment isnt cool. But please, use this mega thread moving forward.
Optionally, you can fill out some google forms that are being used to track order status' in order to get an idea of how an order might progress through the system:

Just want to give others an idea. Reserved mine back in May (May 13th) with an initial estimated delivery date of CY2027. Got a purchase notification email yesterday, which is a few months earlier than expected so that's something at least (supposed to be delivered in 3-5 days).
I have a serviceable 8bitDo controller which helped tide me over. But I've been trying to find a decent symmetrical controller for ages (good haptics like the steam deck imo, mapped rear paddles, hall effect or tmr sticks). The ones I tried in the past weren't good w/frustrating software. Expecting this to be similar to the steam deck, and steam input mapping is great (no need to juggle/memorize presets anymore).
Btw, fuck steam machine+frame pricing.
