“IN 16 CARTS”
Maybe the original controller’s case will work? But probably not that great. I hope they release a case for the new one.

“We can’t name it Steam Controller 2. People would be confused”
I really wish marketing departments would switch to better cocaine, sometimes
Even just doing the car thing and calling it “steam controller 2026” would have been fine
I legitimately don’t know what the big deal is, Ive had a Steam Controller for years…
But yeah, I thought dualsense/dualshock was bad, but steam controller/steam controller is goddamn ridiculous
What will they do if there is a new Steam Controller in the future? Name it Steam Controller again? Or name it Steam Controller 2? Then every reference in the web to Steam Controller 2 would be hell confusing. I don’t hope this is the start of bad naming like Microsoft got themselves into with Xbox consoles.
“We at Valve are excited to announce the Steam Controller 2, the third iteration of our Steam Controller”
We still have two episodes and a spinoff coming.
they can pull a Nintendo and call it New Steam Controller lmao
Xbox: Hold my beer
Wait, there were 2025 previous versions of the Steam Controller?
Yes! They get released annually to celebrate COVID.
Or just Steam Pad.
Steam Controller One.
Still have no idea why Microsoft did that.
“New 3DS” is still the worst name, tbf
New Super Mario Bros made sense for a short while, but is destined to cause nerd-fights for decades to come.
Not worse than Wii U!
Not really, the New 3DS came after the 3DS but still shared the library
How will you refer to it if a followup gets released? Or you sell an old used one? Make sure to not cause potential confusion
Add the year it was made. E.g. Steam Controller (2016) [with or without parentheses], Steam Controller (2025), New 3DS (2015), New 3DS (2033)
Just call it New New 3DS duh
Well they did, it’s called switch. Otherwise they’ve could keep the gameboy for all their handheld devices.
Ehhh it’s kinda bad. I love my N3DSXL but even the abbreviation is a bit of a pain to type on a mobile device.
On eBay there is a
Used Japanese New Nintendo 3DS XL LL Pokemon Solgaleo Lunala console
which is pretty funny
720 would be bad and 3 would be behind sony.
Well if they called it Steam Controller 2 what would they call the next one?
Steam controller 2 - Episode 1
Steam controller 2 - Episode 2
Steam controller ???
