The time is nearly upon us, and the first batch of Steam Hardware gets closer by the day! As of today at 10am PST, pre-orders for Valve's brand of "Steam Hardware" are available from the Steam Hardware page, GameStop, EB Games, Micromania, and GAME UK, depending on your location. This means the Steam Controller, Steam Link, and Steam Machines will simultaneously launch in North America and parts of Europe at the same time, with the rest of the world to likely follow shortly after.
For those who may not remember, the Steam Controller is Valve's attempt at bridging the wide gap between "the precision of a mouse" and the "familiarity of the controller", and the Steam Link will allow users to easily stream game content across their home from their PC to a connected TV regardless of whether or not it also has a computer attached. Valve's official trailer for the Steam Controller has a lot more information to share, which you can check out below.
Those who pre-order either of the devices or an Alienware Steam Machine will receive their products on October 16th 2015, several weeks ahead of the official launch on November 10th. At the current time, the Steam Machine and the Steam Link are available for £39.99/$49.99, while the price of Steam Machines varies heavily depending on their brand and technical specifications.
The Steam Controller, Steam Link, and Steam Machines are all reportedly only available in limited quantities during the pre-order period, meaning they could sell out rather fast. With that said, be sure to head on over to the Steam Hardware page or the home page of your "local" online retailer to pre-order now if you're interested.
