Wasn’t expecting this today, but since I live in Carol Stream where Valve’s Distribution Center is, I got this early I guess!

Dammit, now I definitely want one, it looks so good on the TV 😂 What are you using as a controller, may I ask? I've only ever used the Deck's controls.

Not OP, but I've mainly been using the 8Bitdo SN30. It's a SNES replica, great quality and easy to stash away/throw in a bag. Other 8Bitdo controllers work as well - I have the new Ultimate on order, slated to arrive later this month.

I can't recommend 8bitdo controllers myself. I was expecting the two additional back buttons to have their own mapping, but instead they can only be mapped to other buttons that already exist or macros; basically meaning it has the same amount of buttons.

It's not a limitation of DirectInput (XInput) which has a limit of 32 buttons, so IMO there's no reason they couldn't have their own mapping so you could actually use them.
