    Yeah, but buy a Switch 2 Pro Controller and try to use it on the PS5.

    Vendor lock in is bad, don’t get me wrong but, without Steam, PS controllers have always been a pain to get going on PC. I would prefer they push native level OS controllers, even if it’s just a ‘lizard mode’ but I’m sure the track pads make it more complicated.

      I hope that Steam will enable cross platform compatibility for their controller. I don’t need the trackpads to work on my friend’s switch. Just a 1 to 1 mapping of the buttons from a switch pro controller is good enough.

        Valve makes PC hardware. Consoles are walled gardens. You want to use any controller? Stay on PC or buy a Magic Flash or Brooks.

        My Thrustmaster Flight Stick doesn’t work with my Wii U, how dare Thrustmaster not support my choices.

      You recognize vendor lock is bad, and that’s why they’re complaining, you guys are arguing about nothing
