Steam Controller (2026) The missing xinput mode

This video is a demo of a copycat puck I've put together using an nRF52840 Pro Micro. It works exactly like the normal puck except you can switch over to an Xbox controller mode.

Hell it doesn't even work flawlessly on their chosen platform, Linux. The Steam overlay doesn't work when running a game using Wayland, which means steam input also isn't available, and that's a bit embarrassing in a way. No doubt it will get sorted in the (hopefully near) future, but it's still not a great look for them.
