I got a place on the 512GB with Controller list, and got an email a few days after they started. I ordered it on Friday the 3rd and got it today on Thursday the 9th. The tracking codes were all over the place and gave different estimates depending which branch of each company I used. Steam claimed it was shipped when the courier said they hadn’t got it so I was worried for a few days. But this morning Royal Mail (UK customer) sent me an email saying it would arrive today, while GLS said it would arrive tomorrow.
Safe to say I’m happy to have it now and be playing games!
Beauty! I got my purchase e-mail for 512+Controller today, hopefully it’ll be here by the end of next week! I put a 1 TB SSD into my Steam Deck that I’m going to back up, format for the Steam Machine, and then swap the SM & SD drives so my SM is a 1 TB and my Deck is a 512. A bit of work but I’m looking forward to the end result!
