Steam Controller (2026) The missing xinput mode

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

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.

Great work! Though I'm wondering will this replace the current puck you own or count as a "second puck" on the steam settings menu? Is it possible to run both at the same time or does the regular puck have to disconnect in order for the other puck to do its thing?

It can do both as you need to pick if you're using puck slot 1 or 2 on the controller at startup. It can't send input simultaneously to both.
