Let's not forget that $99 does not include tax, so the actual price is actually higher.

I also appreciate Valve probably isn't ordering a production run comparable to what a Sony needs at minimum, but still - it's too high. The thing is, this is a compromise controller. It doesn't (apparently) have all the features a, say, Sony controller would have, and it won't replace a mouse. The potential use cases for me don't quite justify a purchase "even" at $70.

Quoting: kuhpunktPrice leaked via an early review: $99Can't quite pin that on RAM, unless jacking up the controller prices is part of that plan.

I've heard of it, and I care for hardcore mode even less, hah.
These days if I'm playing with software emulation I do want those save states, but I'm much happier in the original hardware rabbit hole. So, with the N64 I do want the fuzz, with the PSX I absolutely do not want Z-buffer fixes and so on. Achievements rip me out of that experience kind of like a 4x render of an old game would.

Personally... achievements are the one thing I really don't want in old games. Don't need that dopamine.

Not a huge fan of the EEs seemingly taking priority over regular ol' PST polish, but it's always nice seeing a GemRB update.

As someone who appreciates, but can't be arsed to play Slay the Spire often: Vampire Crawlers borders on mindless slop and that's exactly right.
